This year, like every other year has been filled with spectacular phones and interesting technologies. Looking at the HTC One Mini 2 for that matter. The phone seems to be the best mini phone around. Let\u2019s take everyone on common ground and share the information of the phone.<\/p>\n

Introduction:<\/strong><\/p>\n

HTC had a lot of choices to make before introducing the HTC One Mini 2 formally to the world. As of One Mini the screen has been updated from 4.3\u201d to 4.5\u201d, quite ideal for a mini phone. On the other hand, the UltraPixel technology has been dropped in this one and replaced by a regular 13MP camera. Note that this not Mini (M8) and this is the successor of HTC One Mini.<\/p>\n

The phone is has about the same specs as last year\u2019s flagship, which makes a lot of sense both technologically and psychologically. With KitKat out of the box, the snapdragon 400 will probably do fine. And to people who have a problem with the shortage of memory, the One Mini 2 offers a card slot as well, which both its predecessor and the previous flagship did not have. The BoomSound stereo speakers on the front are a definitely an advantage to the phone but there are negative aspects as well. We will talk about that later.<\/p>\n

Here are the complete specifications of the phone:<\/p>\n
