Phones 4U

Phones 4U was the first major retailer to throw its support behind the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini and confirm that it would be stocking it.
We haven't had any movement since that announcement however, with the S5 Mini still listed as "coming soon" and your only option for now is to register for updates.

Carphone Warehouse

Carphone Warehouse is yet to reveal its plans for the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini.

Three

Three has confirmed that it will be stocking the handset, and has given TechRadar a Galaxy S5 Mini release date of August 22 - which is a lot later than we were expecting.

O2

O2 has also confirmed that it'll be stocking the Galaxy S5 Mini, although a spokesperson for the network was unable to provide us with any price or release date information.

EE and Vodafone

Neither EE or Vodafone have currently confirmed whether or not they'll be carrying the Galaxy S5 Mini.
We have contacted both of them and will update this article as soon as we hear back.

Online retailers

If you fancy getting hold of the Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini SIM-free there are a number of online retailers who have the handset on their books.

You can pre-order the Galaxy S5 Mini on Expansys for £389.99, although the site provides no information on when it expects stock to arrive.

Over on Unlocked-Mobiles the S5 Mini is a little more expensive at £394.98, but with stock expected from July 28 you could be one of the first to get their hands on the smartphone.

The cheapest SIM-free price at the moment though can be found on Clove, which is asking just £360 for the Galaxy S5 Mini. Stock is expected "late July".
