Default S3 Mini or Lumia 820?

Any thoughts on which to pick of the 2?

Wifey has given up on Orange ever unlocking her iPhone4 so is going to flog it on Ebay and get a new phone. She's done with Apple so she's after a smartphone, around the size of the i4, so no silly sized S3 full fat type phones.

The 820 and the Mini are not much bigger at all so seem to fit the bill, she quite likes the Win OS too.

Any other suggestions out there or first hand experience of either?
Thanks

920s nice ive got both 920 and 820 thanks to nice people at Nokia.

920s shiney, 820s good cos you can add a 64gig sd card. nice phones. Still annoys me though with WM8 that if you make a call and lift the phone from your ear you can cut the call off, if you fat cheeks touch the screen ( I have fat cheeks ),

design fault I tell ya

I have a lumia 820 and had nothing but problems with it,on my 3rd handset now,first one sent back repaired then a month later it just died,wouldn't charge or switch on so sent off yet again and sent back new handset through! Will never go with Nokia again!
Motion sensor kept playing up,then the speaker was distorted then could only hear people talking through loud speaker then sensor went again. Roll on end of my contract.
