Mobile review: HTC One mini

When HTC introduced the HTC One smartphone with aluminum unibody it was loved so much all over the globe that the company planned some spin-off devices based on the HTC One reference design-htc one clone. It is really not easy to pull-off the same design to create another aluminum unibody bearing smartphone. That is why HTC chose to use polycarbonate to bring the HTC One mini.

HTC One mini carries the same design language and styling as the HTC One. Of course, the One mini is a stripped-down younger kin of the One, but with apt hardware. When the device design shrinks, the battery takes the major hit and thus expectations are lowered.

HTC has smartly followed the clean looking and palm-friend design of the HTC One smartphone to implement the same in the One mini. In a way, One mini does look like an offspring of the HTC One. HTC has tried to put as much metal as possible in this small yet powerful package. The premium aluminum chassis components connect the One mini to One.
