After weeks of rumors and leaks the HTC One Mini do not fit as many secrets to keep beyond the mere confirmation of all technical data that we have been listening. The predictions have been right and the new “mini-ship flagship” brand based in Taiwan wears a design very similar to HTC One but its smaller 4.3-inch screen, which by the way is not so mini. The panel offers HD resolution and a density quite high, which makes it one of its most attractive.

The new company also boasts of several systems to be found in its big brother, such as Ultrapíxel camera , the HTC BoomSound speakers or home screen with theHTC widget BlinkFeed , a good way to keep abreast of the news that we are interested in a quick look.We analyze the key points of latest smartphone HTC .



Display and Design

The display of HTC Mini One key point is that the device receives the appellation regarding your smaller size, always compared to HTC One since 4.3 inches is a large enough size to see content clearly. The resolution of this piece rises to 1,280 x 720 pixels, a configuration that a few months ago was reserved for high-end phones, the result here is that the density reaches 342 ppi , a very high concentration that gives very good sharpness. In this case the technology of the display is TFT LCD and play up to 16 million colors.

The design is one of the top model and so HTC has wanted to follow in the same line. The HTC One Minihas a form of fairly rounded corners and the rear has a slight curve that makes it more comfortable holding. They have also continued to focus on the aluminum , a material that is strong and lightweight at the same time attractive. Its matte surface adds a smoothed the whole, both the silver version as in the model in black , the only two colors that will be available at the moment. The terminal weighs 122 gramsand has a thickness of 9.25 millimeters.

                 

Camera

As advanced in the input, the  HTC One Mini has the camera Ultrapixel already met through the original model. The sensor has a size of 1/3 of an inch and a total resolution of four megapixels. The reason we speak of a lower resolution than usual is that l ultrapíxeles you are larger than a pixel normal receptor gets larger capture more light than a conventional sensor-to 300% according to HTC. The camera is ready to take sharp photos but the lighting of the scene did not accompany, the elements that influence these results are those named ultrapíxeles , the system backlight sensor and the brightness of the lens (f/2.0). To help in situations where the lighting is really bad also features a smart LED flashthat regulates the intensity up to five levels according to the distance from the subject being photographed.

On the other hand HTC has also included his two image CHIP specific response makes the camera very quickly, so we can open the application and shoot in just a second so that nothing escapes us.This mini-specific processor also allows the autofocus will work continuously, we can take pictures while recording video, record video HDR , color compensation and automatic noise reduction . Speaking of video, the HTC One Mini can capture 1080p full HD video at a rate of 30 frames per second, further includes an optical stabilizer that reduces trembling so that the result is more smoothing. Finally cabinets include a front camera with BSI sensor (backlit) 1.6 megapixel that records HD720P video.

                            

Music, Video and Photos

The stereo speakers were one of the highlights of his older brother and the  HTC One Mini follows the same line. The speakers, baptized with the curious name of HTC BoomSound , are at the front, one on top of the screen and the other on the bottom. These parts include reducing distortion amplifier, also certified by the brand comes Beats Audio. Moreover Ultrapixel HTC shoots his camera incorporating HTC Zoe, a system that captures images and short videos (about 3 seconds) to create the effect ofmoving picture , also gives the option to share the full result or just a frame. Function is also Always Smile, a practical way to make all those in a group portrait are always smiling, and gives the option todelete objects in the image with Object Removal. Finally highlight HTC Video HighLights , gallery HTC One Mini is organized into events based on dates and locations, for example we can select the day we spent on the beach and automatically create a video with pictures and even background music you can choose from our library.

Power and memory

Without reaching the current high-end standards, the  HTC One Mini does pretty well in the power section.Specifically takes a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 400, dual core 1.4 gigahertz clock speed. This piece, along with memory DDR2 RAM from one Gb, promises smooth performance and suitable for a smartphone of its kind ..

On the other hand, the terminal has a background of 16 GB to store all kinds of files, the problem is thathas no MicroSD card slot, if we want to expand the memory will have to resort to such systems online Dropbox storage.

The  HTC One Mini comes standard with the latest version of Android , ie 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. Among the most prominent of this release is the improvement of the assistant Google Now , a system that provides information of interest and learns from our routine, so you do not need to ask anything. Android 4.2 also features the application Photo Sphere which gives the option to create a panoramic picture envelopes, ie as 360-degree spheres. In addition to improvements specific to this version also includes classic Google services like Gmail, Gtalk, Google Maps with Navigation, YouTube and access to the store Google Play.

HTC includes its own visual layer over the operating system to give a custom look. In this case the interface is HTC Sense 5.0 , which also includes the home page with HTC BlinkFeed . This service works as a news reader which can include online media that most interest us. In this way we create our ownfeed based on our tastes and also allows you to include the latest shared on social networks, includingInstagram.

Connectivity

Despite having the nickname “Mini”, this model has a connection profile to match any advanced smartphone. Among wireless systems highlights the presence of the standard LTE (4G) and HSPA + (3G)with which to surf the Internet from any place or port WiFi , a way to navigate more smoothly and save mobile data when possible. In addition to the system WiFi Hotspot can turn the terminal into a portable modem to share the mobile connection to other devices, including computers. We continue traveling connectivity systems and found a wireless port Bluetooth 4.0 with which to share files or use props, the standard DLNA multimedia sharing focused on the antenna GPS an infrared port that turns the device into a universal remote control a chip NFC with which to make payments or more. To close this section could not miss the port MicroUSB and 3.5 mm jack for headphones.

Reviews

HTC has done its homework and the result of the compact version of its flagship is pretty good. Thealuminum design , the 4.3-inch screen with resolution HD and Ultrapixel camera are the three strengths of this model that promises the same experience as the HTC One in a more compact size.multimedia profile remains a priority for brand, which focuses on systems such as HTC or HTC BoomSound Zoe -the first to improve the experience of images and videos, and the second to deliver clear sound through the front speakers. The  technical deficiency more pronounced in this model is theabsence of MicroSD memory cards , a piece cast in missing users accustomed to store many files. But is working on that profile of connections , the battery and the processor . On the other hand the price of the phone is a bit high , especially considering that the HTC One, whose technical profile is far more advanced, and can be obtained by 580 euros in free format.
