At its price point, HTC’s scaled down Windows Mobile device doesn’t have much going for it. Along with it’s Android based phones in the Middle East such as Legend and Desire, HTC is also offering on a physically scaled down version of it’s HD2 in the...

HTC HD Mini and Nokia E72 share the same predicament. Both are well built devices, packed with features and loaded with pre-installed software, yet both suffer the same drawback: an aging OS that is soon to be replaced with a brighter, smarter one. At...

Expert Review While everyone else has given up on Windows Mobile, HTC is still striving to keep it alive with handsets such as the new HD mini. It's basically a scaled down version of the HD2, the HD mini packs in a lot of features in a smaller desi...

Attractive design, good display quality and touchscreen response, can be used as a Wi-Fi router, HTC Sense UI makes Windows Mobile a lot more bearable...

It's still Windows Mobile, interface stutters at times for no apparent reason, no flash for camera, loudspeaker position, no DivX/Xvid support, poor battery life, Windows Marketplace is sad, expensive...

The HTC HD mini is priced at Rs. 21,500. At that price you get a phone with a good design and display, but running an outdated operating system, average battery life and poor camera. The phone has a tendency to get bit sluggish at times for reasons tha...

Not too long ago, HTC introduced the HD2, which featured just about everything a Windows Mobile smartphone buyer could ask for. But it also had a couple of characteristics, namely comparatively large size and heavy weight, that didn't thrill some pro...

Good performance, Small and light fits nicely in your hand and your pocket, Capacitive touchscreen is responsive with fluid scrolling, Most thoroughly "touch enabled" WM phone yet.

Capacitive buttons on front panel too easy to hit by accident, Back cover difficult to remove, Doesn't support 3G for AT&T.

Back in February I reviewed the HTC HD2, a 4.3-inch smartphone that ran on a 1GHz Snapdragon processor and used Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional and HTC’s Sense UI + TouchFLO as its OS and UI respectively. And now I have with me the HTC HD Mini, a smart...

Elegant Minimalistic Design, HTC's UI Works Well, Very Good Music Playback, WiFi, 3G & GPS Support...

Expensive for its Performance, Bad Camera, App Store Needs More Apps...

For a moment if I was to not consider the price, the HTC HD Mini looks like a pretty good deal. It might not be a super-charged device but does most things well enough. It has a good looking, and more importantly, usable UI and touch input works well...

We had to exercise our neglected patience muscle with this one, but at long last we've gotten ahold of a real live HD Mini and put it through its paces. Equipped with the same processor, screen size and resolution as HTC's Legend, but running the HD2's Wi...

Excellent camera and album for casual picsSense makes up for a lot of WinMo's foiblesEffortless email and social networking setup...

Fiddly back cover and no hard camera buttonBrowsers have rendering issuesBetter alternatives exist costing not much more...

To conclude, if you take the time to train up your non-techy friends on how to use this phone, they'll most definitely thank you for it. This is because the Mini truly is a smartphone and it truly advances functionality and utility beyond the feature hand...

First, the HTC Touch HD, then came the HTC HD2 and now, the HTC HD mini. And no, do not mistake the HD moniker for high-definition, because none of these three Windows Mobile devices from HTC can display nor process media resolutions anywhere near the...

For us, the HTC HD mini is a clear representation of the Taiwanese company's continued effort in the propagation of the Windows Mobile scene. And it's aptly done by targeting both the niche and mass market groups. Whilst the earlier HTC HD2 caters to p...

HTC’s is one of our favourite smartphones, but its glorious 4.3in screen does make it something of a pocket-hogger. Welcome, then, the HD Mini, which shares much of the HD2’s goodness but shoehorns it into a much diddier case. Its screen is just...

Great HTC Sense UI. Slick touchscreen. Neat styling...

Windows Mobile. No flash on the camera...

WinMo works better on its bigger brother’s screen, but this is a fine alternative if you need a highly pocketable touchscreen smartphone...

Getting right to the point, we should say the HTC HD mini is not a great phone. Incoming loudness is fine, but voices tend to lack any natural sounding. Our callers found the volume on their side to be a bit low, with our words not being the easiest to...

If you're looking for a compact Windows Mobile phone then the HTC HD Mini is a good option but we're not sure we would buy one. It's hard to ignore the fact that Microsoft is about to launch a brand new mobile operating system and apps designed for it...

Windows Mobile 6.5 is getting a bit long in the tooth now but write it off at your peril. The HTC HD2 is simply amazing thanks to the HTC Sense interface and there's still a big community out there. The HD2, which we reviewed here, has the 1Ghz chip, h...

The HTC HD Mini is likely to be HTC's last device to run Windows Mobile. Their focus will soon turn towards Windows Phone 7 as they look ahead to the next generation of smartphone devices. But for now, we have the HD Mini, which is HTC's only Window...

HTC should not have positioned the HD Mini as a "the impressive experience of the HTC HD2 in a compact package" because in doing so, they've set our expectations sky high, and those expectations were not met. Instead, they should have positioned it as...

It sounds like a recipe for success: take the surprisingly popular HTC HD2, shrink it down some, and offer it as a more pocketable alternative. Yet out of the three devices HTC announced at Mobile World Congress in February, the HTC HD mini has prompte...

Of the four new phones that HTC announced at Mobile World Congress 2010, there was only one Windows Mobile handset. The HTC HD mini is that handset, and aims to offer most of the HTC HD2's functionality, but in a vastly smaller form factor. The HD min...

No camera flash, only HVGA resolution screen, slightly uninspiring design...

In conclusion, the HTC HD mini is a very capable handset. If you liked the look of the HD2, but couldn't sacrifice the pocket/handbag space, then the HD mini could be the answer. Despite a huge size reduction, the HD mini actually misses out on very f...

The HTC HD Mini is a very decent device that has a few fundamental flaws preventing it from being classified as a usable phone, which we feel is of utmost important for any handset. The price is also on the higher side, which sadly means, we cannot re...

The HD Mini is an attractive handset that will appeal to someone looking for a touch-screen device that is cheaper than the top tier phones. However, it’s not suitable for even moderate keypad use – SMS junkies look elsewhere. Its price also makes it s...
