The Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini was also spotted in Zauba listing which shows the record of four devices being imported into India for testing purposes. However unlike the GFXBench listing the Zauba listing state that the alleged device SMJ105F aka. Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini comes with a 4 inch display. Going by the fact that GFXBench listings had went wrong many a times before, it would be wise to safe to infer that the Samsung J1 Mini will come with a smaller 4 inch display.

The Zauba listing state the Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini costs around Rs 3,368 ($52 approx.) However it's worth noting that the actual device won't be priced the same when launched commercially as import taxes, logistics duties will be levied on it.
