FAQ

I do not care about the internet and apps. How is the handset is making calls?
Back to basics, that is. Yes, the sound quality is good and the noise reduction works really well.

You forgot Boom Sound! Good or bad?
Boom Sound means that the phone has dual front stereo speakers. The sound is the best I’ve heard in a mellanklasslur. But speakers may still ring a little alarming when playing music at full volume.

Have HTC One Mini memory card slot?
No, unfortunately not.

Test Image

Ultra Pixel camera on One Mini does a great job as long as you’re shooting something in a short distance and in good light. In darker lighting conditions is the dynamic range – the range between the lightest and darkest parts of the picture – very limited. The images also have a tendency to become quite noisy.

history of HTC is a testament to how quickly everything changes in the mobile industry. A few years ago, the company was considered as Androidtillverkaren with Big A after successes htc Desire. At the time, Samsung was more or less regarded as a joke.

Three years later, there is much that is different. Now for a HTC allltmer obscure existence in the shadow of giants Samsung and Apple. The company has continued to drop really good phones. Latest top model HTC One – acclaimed by reviewers worldwide – recently named “the year’s smart phone« by the association eisa (European Imaging and Sound Association). But the big-seller has still not materialized. For some time now instead plagued by rumors of layoffs and the sale.

It is in light of this that HTC in July announced that there would be a smaller, cheaper version of the HTC One. In appearance (design), the models are very similar. Both phones have a kind of aluminum shell with curved back and dual speakers on the front. But as always, the details are important, and there are significant differences. HTC One Mini namely a frame of white plastic that runs along the sides of the phone. All buttons are plastic too. This draws quite dramatically from the luxurious and elegant feel which makes HTC One the one of the very tastiest Androidmobilerna of all time. Whether this is the HTC One Mini is still a hefty build, and definitely edgier than most of the mid-range segment in terms of design.
