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
  • Poor camera results
  • Limited battery life
  • Sense is still a burden rather than a boon
  • Camera is disappointing
  •  mediocre camera
  •  16GB internal storage
  • Non-expandable
  •  no NFC (and no IR blaster)
  •  non-user-removable battery
  • As neither a premium nor cheap 4.3inch device
  • The HTC One presents better value for money. The "Ultrapixel" camera is still disappointing
  • More so without OIS.
  • Non-interchangeable battery
  • Memory expansion via SD card not possible
  • Only 1GB RAM
  • High buying price
  • Faint display of self-taken photographs

  • Good screen, decent build quality, good camera, mid-range price tag
  • Average battery life, no NFC support
  • The HTC One Mini is a shrunk-down version of the Taiwanese firm's current flagship smartphone that sacrifices processing power and NFC support in its endeavour to become small-hand friendly....

  • The HTC One Mini is our favourite handset in HTC's current lineup. Its compact size, speedy performance and top of the line build quality put it easily on the same level as the HTC One. The difference here is that the Mini costs a lot less, making it a mu...

  • The HTC One mini isn't as good as the HTC One. Its performance is decent but not spectacular, and the addition of a layer of plastic has removed some of the original's chic. But this is a very strong handset at a decent price. Well worth a look.Tags:Smart...

  • Fantastic premium design, great display, Sense 5 is a sophisticated user interface
  • Choosing a smaller device means accepting a less-powerful device, battery life isn't great, some apps wouldn't run, more expensive than rivals, no NFC
  • The HTC One mini brings a lot to the party. It looks good, it sounds good and it performs well enough on everyday tasks. It's a great mid-range device, with an experience that's very much the same as the larger HTC One. It might be a little slower...

  • More comfortable onehanded use; Same slick metallic design; Zoe camera mode; Boom Sound; 4G
  • No NFC; No memory card slot
  • The HTC One Mini may only be marginally miniaturised, but it’s more comfortable to grip and use one-handed. Blissfully very little has been sacrificed in the shrinking process, boasting the same excellent metallic design, ultrapixel camera and Boom Sound ...

  • Pocket-friendly size; Gorgeous design; Metal construction; Bright and bold screen; Decent battery life
  • Unimpressive performance; Blinkfeed still can't be removed; No expandable storage; No removable battery
  • The HTC One Mini has the same sleek, attractive metal design as its brother, but comes in a smaller, more thumb-friendly size. Its screen is bright and bold too. Although its dual-core chip doesn't impress, it's still a great option if you're after a p...

  • Gorgeous good looks and lightweight design, decent screen, fast processor, latest version of Android
  • No expandable storage, no removable battery, camera could be better
  • The HTC One mini makes some sensible compromises to bring down the size and price of the original One. The screen's a bit smaller (but not too small) and while the processor has a lower spec, it isn't obviously much slower in practise. Thankfully, the "...

  • Abstract:  Looking to get yourself the HTC One mini? Well, we’ve already got some up-close shots, but today a man in a van dropped off the handset so that we can have a bit of time with it. If you’re a long-time reader then you’ll probably remember something we’...
