The word "mini" these days just means "normal sized" phones. Because now that larger than your face types have become so popular, it only makes sense to release a "mini" model to milk the rest of your possible clientele.

Samsung is doing the same with the S4 Active Mini. The phone popped up in regulatory filings on Chinese site Tenaa, describing it as the Samsung GT-I8580.  [Tenaa via Techradar]
