HTC One Mini Full Phone Specifications
Htc one mini is a miniature version of the legend Htc one. The mini version is for enthusiasts who want it to be smaller and around almost similar to the specs of htc one and importantly, to fit in pocket. The miniature version of HTC one has a downgraded processor, but its enough for smooth and efficient operation. Htc one mini looks exactly same as its father.
HTC one was announced by HTC on July 2013 and is expected to hit markets on august 2013. This device shares a micro-sim architecture and one needs to have a sim-cutter device to adapt his mini-sim to micro sim and to use with this device. The features are somewhat similar to its predecessor. But differs in performance segment. The device is available worldwide in 3 different models. They are EMEA version, ASIA and AT&T version. Lets peek into the features this device offers to the users.
NETWORK
HTC one mini is superior in network support. This device supports all the available modes. the device also have backward compatibility to 2G,3G and 4G modes. The bands supported in 2G are 850,900,1800,1900. The bands supported in 3G mode are HSDPA 900,1900,2100. The ASIA version supports HSDPA 850 apart from above bands.The 4G network supports LTE 800,1800,2600 and ASIA version supports LTE 900 and 2100 apart from above modes.The SIM architecture is micro-sim and all range related problems are seemed to be fixed in the mini version.
DISPLAY & BODY
The HTC One mini version is 5.2*2.49*0.37 in dimensions (inches). This is not so mini compared to the miniature versions of SAMSUNG and SONY. The phone weighs 122 grams. That is so light for a smartphone. This should rock the light weight lovers.The display is a super LCD2 capacitive screen as expected. The phone screen is 4.3 inches and it has an amazing ppi of 342 which shows what will be the depth of pictures shown on the phone. It supports multitouch and has Corning gorilla 3 protection against scratches.Its also bundled with HTC sense UI.
SOUND
The phone has built in amplifiers and stereo speakers for song/music enthusiasts. It also has prebuilt WAV ringtones and alert tones. One can easily swap them to an MP3 song they prefer. It also has Beats audio enhancement and has a 3.5 mm jack support. This shows HTC plans on being a threat to music edition smartphones of SONY.
MEMMORY
Despite of having a memmory card slot, the phone is equipped with a 16GB internal storage (12GB usable). The smartphone also has a 1GB ram for quick application launch. One should have expected a 2GB but 1GB does the operation perfectly fine, HTC says.
DATA
HTC one mini has GPRS EDGE and HSPA support. Alas it doesnt have wifi-tethering support. The phone supports dual-band wifi though for boosted internet surfing. The phone is equipped with a version 4.0 bluetooth for superfast data transfer across phones.
CAMERA
The camera disappoints again. A trick to make people go and buy the full version. Its a mere 4.0 MP camera. The secondary camera is of decent 1.6 MP though. It has 1080p @ 30fps video recording. But expect nothing from a 4MP camera eventhough HD capable. We would atleast expect a 8MP from HTC. The camera has added features like tag on and smile and face detections.
FEATURES
The other features of this miniature version are, a 4.2.2 HTC sense firmware and a dual core karait clocked at 1.4GHZ working on a qualcomm snapdragon chipset. The phone is equipped with adreno 305 and one would have expected a decent one from HTC. It has accelerometer,gyro,proximity and compass included. It supports HTML 5 and has GPS with GLONASS support.
BATTERY
It is equipped with a non removable 1800mah battery Li-ion. It provides a sweet 20hr talktime on 4G. The non removable battery maybe a burden later as with low RAM the phone is prone to LAG and Freezes.
