I still find it funny how Verizon wants to remain secretive about upcoming phone releases and tells customers to check out their news page for new phone releases. When a customer asks when a particular phone is going to be available from Verizon, it would be better for Verizon to tell them an estimated release date instead of letting them wonder if they should wait or not. Without any information the customer has to decide if they should get one of the current phones or wait for a phone that may never get released by them. If they decide not to wait and get one of the current phones and then shortly after the return period expires for the phone they purchased the one they really wanted gets released, they're going to be a disappointed, annoyed and unhappy customer.
I would think that if Verizon if going to ever release the Galaxy S5 Mini they would want to do it before Samsung announces the Galaxy S6 which will probably be in March. I stumbled across this topic because I really want to know if Verizon is ever going to carry the Galaxy S5 Mini because my friend wants a smaller Android phone with a good camera, not something with a 5+" screen. There are others under consideration like the HTC One Remix and the Kyocera Brigadier but the Galaxy S5 Mini would be the best choice for the features that he's looking for.
