HTC One Mini

Building a mini version of your popular flagship handset seems to be the in-thing among Tier 1 smartphone makers and once again, we have Samsung to thank (or resent) for this. If memory serves us correctly, the S3 mini really kick-started this craze and soon other OEMs were also infected with this virus. Today’s example is the One mini which officially made its way to India a couple of months back. The phone has gone through a mandatory strip down in terms of specifications and size but for some strange reason.

 Performence– The 1.4GHz dual-core processor coupled with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chipset make for a swift user experience. Navigating through the One Mini was a breeze, throughout my time with the One Mini I can safely sat that I experienced no lag or delay whatsoever. Web browsing was extremely smooth; loading pages faster than my original One when I had them side by side.

Display – Although the Mini isn’t a full HD (1080p) display you’d be hard pushed to tell. The 720p super LCD 2 display has a pixel density of 341 ppi which is extremely impressive for a mid-to-high end device
