The editors didn't like

  • Uncomfortable side buttons with shallow tactile feedback
  • Okay battery life
  • BoomSound speakers sometimes weren't clear when it came to intensive sounds
  • 16GB of internal storage really comes to about 11GB
  • And no microSD card slot limits storage options
  • The Verdict
  • I would recommend this phone to anybody who
  • Lower-end processor. Middling reception. No memory card slot or removable battery. Heavy Android skin might not suit everyone's taste
  • Below-average battery life
  • Not fastest phone in class
  • Too many AT&
  • T apps
  • The diet version of the One has 16GB of internal storage with no option to expand
  • And lacks NFC
  • Camera lacks fine detail
  • No IR blaster or NFC
  • Expensive at launch

  • Non-expandable
  •  no NFC (and no IR blaster)
  •  non-user-removable battery

  • Non-interchangeable battery
  • Memory expansion via SD card not possible
  • Only 1GB RAM
  • High buying price
  • Faint display of self-taken photographs

  • I have to admit I was a little disappointed in how large the HTC One Mini actually was; in my head I imagined something a little smaller in the hand.That's a minor concern once you get to use it, however. It's still playing second fiddle to the full HTC O...

  • Excellent build; Aluminium chassis; Great 4G speeds; Ultrapixel camera may not pack many megapixels, but it sure brings decent low light;
  • No NFC; No microSD slot; Infrared section missing in action, meaning you can't use this handset as a remote control; Like the HTC One, Blinkfeed lacks the ability to add your own feeds and news sites, forcing you to use its suggestions and nothing else; P
  • When HTC first started the “One” series last year, it said it was slimming down the range, making it easier to pick handsets. It subsequently released lots of handsets all featuring that naming convention, which actually did the opposite.This year, howeve...

  • Abstract:  The latest smartphones continue to get bigger and bigger but not everyone wants to carry around a behemoth in their pocket. This seems to be the idea behind the new HTC One mini, a compact version of the flagship HTC One .The HTC One mini is essentially a...

  • Abstract:  On the other, you have some brave 4-inch holdouts, such as the iPhone 5 , and the trend started by Samsung with the Galaxy S3 Mini: compact versions of larger handsets. Now HTC has launched its own diminutive version of the range-topping HTC One , the One...

  • As mentioned earlier, the LG G3 s and HTC Mini 2 One should be among your options if you are looking for one of those smartphones that are inspired by top-end terminals. In this case the HTC One Mini 2 responds to the concept of mini-badge-ship, and which...

  • Amazing build quality and design, brilliant camera, carries across many of the features that made the HTC One so good, Android Jelly Bean, Sense 5 is a great Android skin
  • Battery life isn't all that impressive, no SD-support
  • Battery issues aside, the HTC One Mini is one of the best Android handsets we've tested in recent months. It looks great, performs like a flagship handset, and packs in many of its high-end-counterpart's market-leading features.The handset ships with the...
