  • Just had android to it and get a new phone.

  • does this phone have android of any type

  • I just got this phone... This phone is very very good in any way, so don't listen to other people that negatively commented on it. It has a very nice stylish, and sturdy design, corning gorilla glass, so the whole in-hand experience is at a top level, for me anyways. Windows mobile 6.5.3 pro is a very good software, despite every1 that said its complicated, it's not and you can easily set-up everything as you like. No bugs detected yet. Call quality is very good at the loudest, and the proximity sensor response is very fast, so no accidental end-call case. There is no problem like others have on the "removing battery to end a call" for me, others have that problem I don't know why, but I don't and the whole experience is very nice. Battery life is stunning for me, because I don't use internet on this phone, so I disabled data connectivity and phone can last up to 1 week standard call and sms usage. Very good phone, old model but for me, its the way it should be.

  • super

  • yes you are right... for this is not a phone.. basically this is a packet pc (using this htc like my note book except dvdrw + hdd & web cam) .. with all added features..like phone, usb, camera, bt, wifi, router cum modem, youtube video, facebook, mobile phone features by default, etc., so worth spending for htc hd mini t5555... quietly brilliant handy pc... " technology for technology"

  • My htc hd mini is very cool nd has all sexy features in it

  • very nice phone touch pad is very smooth and exlent

  • this phone is great

  • My HTC HD mini is running Android Cynogmod 7. You will find the ROM and instructions on how to ... Google it...

  • How Do you Update this to Android ? Do i need Any software ? Please explain Briefly ..

  • Does this phone (HTC HD Mini) has Microsoft Outlook Mobile? If yes, does it gets fully synchronised (with Active Sync) with PC's MS Outlook and transfers full contents of Notes mentioned in Contacts and Calender Entries?

  • is it good to text an message faster ?

  • Best run Android is 2.2, I installed android 2.3 but it is not visible. It does not run properly.

  • Did You ever try to update the OS? It's free. I don't have any of the issues that You wrote, and I have to put it on charger only twice a week.

  • some times, i nearly smash this phone on the floor when i am in urgent or emergency!! damn legging (even i formatted and no games installed, no other app installed), slow touch screen responding, and poor battery!! stand by can only for less than 8 hours.. poor phone.. no more HTC for me!!

  • Htc diamond 2 can perfome android shoftware. Does htc hd mini can also do like htc diamond 2?

  • I've just been given a HTC HD Mini by work. Having set it all up etc, I now find that the set of control buttons (hand set up, home, etc) don't operate when I switch on the phone and often end up taking out the battery, wait for a minute, put it back then all is okay until the next switch on. Really need a little switch between battery and phone!! Not happy with it and aim to inform my manager that really I need to get it replaced with a decent phone.

  • thanks guys for your opinion i was about to purchase htc mini no after your feed back i will never think about this ....

  • If you are electrical engineering, you will know that a bend board may cause loose electrical contact.. and maybe that's why your phone couldn't charge.. you may not realised it, but it may somehow got bent inside your pocket or your bag without you knowing it.. the same happened to my phobe few years ago.. (although it was not the whole board, but just some part of it under the keyboard)

  • lots of reliability problems 4 times at service and still not working properly Never again HTC for me

  • yeah, i had the same a few days ago. unsure what was the reason. i had to download a new(old) ROM from htc.com. It did help.

  • hi i've got a major problem that my phone doesn't boot up it just freezes during the starup procedure i've even tried to restore to factory settings with holding both volume buttons and tapping the power button, but it still freezes once the bar reaches the completion point, any suggestions please?

  • vahiyat mobile phone.. wasted ma useful bugs on this useless stuff... first and last experience of htc..

  • HTC HD mini is the best mobile you wast your money on it, for every one don't try to buy, first problem with the language ( arabic) secondary, the ON/OFF botton is not working after 3 months from less than normal use. third, processor is the slowest one compared with the same for other brands, finally HTC don't care about any complains

  • what i have to do when i call i have to take off the battery to cancel the dial? just tell me why htc make this and i have to suffer and have extra account on my bill from inbox dial msg !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • update the ROM!

  • sure:) follow my tutorial

  • I have to say that I am very very disappointed with the HTC Company. I bought HTC HD MINI on November 2010 and after 3 months I had problems with battery. On November 2010 I bought an HTC HD Mini. After 4 months of normal use the battery was so weak that I had to carry always my charger with me. The last two months my mobile didn't charge more than 60 % and the battery drained after 5 minutes of use. Then I bought a new battery and I upgraded the software of the phone but the problem still existed. So, I sent the device in HTC service, in order to fix it. Today, I received their answer that really made me loose my patience. They sent me an email ( that I have copied at the end of this mail) where they explain me that the "the chassis and the main board are bend", and the service will cost 198 euros . First of all I didn't bend my mobile phone and I have no doubt about it. Secondly and more importantly, I am a computer engineer my self and I really can't figure out how the "board bend" can cause a battery charge problem!!!!! Such a response seems to me completely unjustified, not to say ridiculous !!! I am really disappointed with this situation, considering company's worldwide reputation concerning quality and service!

  • Yeah that's true... Same thing happend to me..

  • Sorry about the people that had problems with that phone, but, MY HTC HD MINI is THE BEST WINDOWS MOBILE PHONE I EVER HAD...I've using WinMo smarthphones since Windows Mobile 2003, and the HTC HD MINI is the most stable phone, most beaultiful, small, and exclusive phone i ever had...everybody ask me about the model, all the time! Everyone get impressed with its performance and stuffs. HTC HD MINI...THE BEST WIN.MO PHONE I EVER HAD

  • just make sure that you have closed all ur application using task manager and data connection is off the battery will standby fo 5 days at least sry for my english

  • Dear All, Can Android OS be installed on this Phone, please reply with ur feedback and way to install android

  • If you go back 10 years and find yourself with brick flaunting itself as smartphone that was era of Windows phones. Now windows phones suck Android rocks!!

  • This phone has a stylish look among the other HTC phones.But due to its HVGA screen resolution that causes most of the programs doesn't work. It has the latest windows mobile OS 6.5.3,this is the good point!!Watch slideshow/video in landscape view is comfortable,run smoothly and with just a single touch and go! Good for business user.

  • Listen, mate. This isn't the best phone. HTC Sensation is far better. Check out the specs. Sensation 8mp HD mini only 5mp. HD mini only 65k Sensation has 16milliom. Honestly, HD Mini 320 x 480 pixels and 3.2 inches?!? HD Sensation is 540 x 960 pixels, 4.3 inches. BEAT THAT! The only good thing about it, is that it's lighter than the Sensation (due to not very good specifications and short battery life.) It's still good, but Sensation is better. Buy anyway, at least it's the same make!

  • hi how can i take my videos off my htc hd mini or hw can i transfer dem to memory card. my laptop slot for card reader is not working so can i still transfer videos to pc ??

  • Worst phone ever! Constantly freezes. Unbearably slow. Drops service. I have to wait nearly 5 minutes to read a text after recieving it because it has frozen. When its freezing up and the screensaver comes on, you can use it and have to take the battery out.

  • i found the htc hd mini quite complicated to use. I prefer andoroid os or iphone os.

  • using this phone for last 1 year.......this the best phone i ever owned....previously i used to buy sony ericsson cell phones......but seriously this is the best phone....thanks HTC....will only buy HTC phones in future....no compromise :) HTC HD MINI simply rocks :)

  • Sorry about the people that had problems with that phone, but, MY HTC HD MINI is THE BEST WINDOWS MOBILE PHONE I EVER HAD...I've using WinMo smarthphones since Windows Mobile 2003, and the HTC HD MINI is the most stable phone, most beaultiful, small, and exclusive phone i ever had...everybody ask me about the model, all the time!

  • does it support video call?

  • Is this phone getting a software update ??? Please reply !

  • my HTC HD mini was bought in september 2010. what i noticed was that even at normal settings, sometimes messages would come in without any notification sound; sometimes, there would be incoming calls without any ring tone. i brushed those problems aside. but starting yesterday, my phone has been hanging. i have been removing my battery and replacing, and yet, phone hangs. phone has had screen protector from day 1, has never been dropped, too. i have used it for surfing news about 3-5times only. never downloaded any file. what do i need to do? pls. help. i have been reading about this phone freeze problem, yet have seen no remedy :-(

  • Ive noticed others have the same problem. Screen freezes during call and cannot hang up without pulling the battery. Very annoying! Also noticed the smart alecs who say it is experience.

  • totally disagree, your phone must be faulty. My mini is the best and most stable winmo I've ever had, 4 months and not one crash yet, battery lasts about 3 days, and yes the internet connection is established, but it is not always getting data. My phone updates weather and checks for e-mails once a day, it stays connected but I don't get charged. However, you can turn off manually too.

  • Try diffrent network sim card in htc hd mini and check.it could b problem in network.

  • is there a chance that will be an android for htc hd mini just like the one for htc hd 2

  • Without doubt the worst phone ive ever had Ive had mine for about a month now and its actually unworkable. In the first week, it worked fine, without one problem. From then on, its been a nightmare. 1. The internet stays on ALL the time. Apparently, due to this problem, ive used almost 80% of my internet allowance in just over 3 weeks. 2. constant, constant freezing problems. Especially when locking and unlocking this phone. It seems to tell you when it would like to work 3. the widgets are rubbish. when you turn the phone on its side e.g to get a bigger keyboard, stead of getting a clean, swift motion, it will freeze for a few minutes before finally letting you do what you want. A real pain if accidently moved when in your hand typing. The list could go on. And now it would appear im stuck with this phone for the next year, seeing as o2 only repair phones. god help me.

  • why the battery life is limited only cheaper than ipaq 6828? and what about sreen resolution??

  • packed with latest features like 3g, accerlometer, wifi, 5 mega pics cam, gps etc, but what about sreen resol? battery life? cheaper than ipaq 6828!!!!

  • rubbish phone had it fixed three times still dont work its going back

  • Does htc hd mini offers pictures, videos and file transfer such as word, excel, powerpoint via bluetooth to other mobile devices???? pls reply.thk you

  • This phone has many very useful features like wifi router. My experience is that if you want anything to compete with iphone 3g, this is the one. I love the touch sensitivity, sound and picture quality etc. 600 processor is quite enough for me. more than anything it's stylish

  • I bought this phone on e-bay for AU 300 best deal ever, this was an upgrade from my HTC touch cruise 09, and I am loving every minute. I downloaded copilot and it works like a charm, the only downside is the apps, not enough interesting apps out there but oh well at the end of the day what matters is the call quality and sms experince, which is fabulous...

  • I would recommend people not to buy this phone as per my personal experience goes, I had bought this phone some 3 to 4 months back and there has not been a single day when the phone has not hung for more than 10 times

  • Hi I have a question. I would like to buy this phone, but there is 1 thing I was wondering about. How is the internet via Wifi? My HTC P3300 has some problem occasionly with downloading webpages, so images are not fully showed because of the resolution 240x320 pixels and the 200mhz processor. Is it the same with this phone? Or is browsing on internet via wifi very smooth? Thank you very much for the answer!

  • Hi. I've had this phone for 3 month, every since the end of the first week the phone has been lagging. every time i receive a text it lags for at least 10 seconds, every time i send a text it lags,and the phone completely freezes at least 5 times a day (sometimes it freezes when it is on lock when the screen is black, so i can not turn the phone onto the unlocking screen). i had to the the battery out and restart the phone several times, but in many cases the phone freezes in the orange 'windows' screen. i have tried to download the Ram upgrade and everything on the HTC website, but it says that my phone does not require the download. and i have had my phone "flushed" by the store i bought it from 3 times, but the problems keep on coming back. Any help or comments would be appreciated!

  • hi...i installed spb shell.....and not liking it at all.....how can i get back to my original htc sense ???

  • HTC is a Taiwan Company, as far I know all the HTC devices are made in Taiwan. But honestly, what should be the difference if HTC was made in China ? Seems still people can not make the diffrence between the cheap toy electronics build in China by local companies and the giant electronic companies who produce products with the most high tech equipment available on earth and having highly skilled engineers. Iphone is made in China ONLY, anyone complain about ? The only difference between China / rest of the world made is into peoples mind. Wait 10 more years and all will be made in China, unfortunatly that moment we will have no job and money anymore to buy the made in China quality.

  • I recently purchased HTC HD Mini, i am facing a problem in messaging, when i sent message abroad it failed to sent, but local messages are being sent sucessfully, can any one guide how to solve this problem.

  • hi i have one of these and i droped it about 2 days ago and all that hapned was the back came of and the battry came out so i put it back to gether and it worked perfect again... have you looked at the SPB shell in the market place it improves the fone by a great deal and it has made mine faster and more user friendly it also made the fone work in 3D and hd. the camera also improved and gives better detail on pictures, you can get the trial from the market place wich lasts 15 days but the full one from the market place costs about £26 but i went on the internet on my pc and downloaded it from a torrent site and it also had the product key and when i installed it threw my pc it works perfect and it also says it is a genuine copy

  • This handphone looks quite thin lol I'm afraid it will break into half when i drop it accidentally. It's okay actually, its function obviously good. Plus it's touch screen.

  • I have a query... when i use the hotkey for facebook, it comes up in a language that i dont know, but when i use any of the browsers, it works just fine and loads in English. I checked all the settings and cant seem to fix this...does anyone know how to fix this?

  • i have had HTC phones built in taiwan and china and i do not see any diffrence they are both very good quality builds

  • Hi i had this problem with this handset untill i did a Administrator reset of the fone and this sorted all the problems then i installed any updates. to do the administrator rest do the folowing remove battry when turned on remove simcard & memory card ( all infomation will be lost that is stored on the fone ) replace the battry without replaceing the back hold the volume butons in on the side and press the power-button the fone will boot in to a administrator mode and it askes you to press the down button then just follow the onscreen instructions you have just performed a administrator reset if you have any questions about this email me on [email protected]

  • No front camera so no video calling

  • my htc made by taiwan!

  • yes there is no videocall for this one.

  • all HTC phones are made in CHINA...

  • Dear anyone who wants to buy this phone, I am writing from my experience... When I wanted to buy a new phone, I went to buy htc hd2 because of the big screen. But when I reached the store, they told me that they only have hc hd2 made in China which is not good. So, I had no other option except buying htc hd2 mini ($ 385 in Iraq) because this was made in Taiwan. I was very happy at the beginning because it was very beautiful. I was happy to move from Nokia N95 to this new one. But I really regret that I bought this phone in the first place. There are various issues that can't be solved. The first thing is the camera, even if you choose SUPER FINE still the picture is very bad. I tried a lot to figure out away but it was useless. It has a very bad camera. Besides, there is not flash for taking pictures at night. There are many bugs in the Windows 6.5.3. For example if you go to Calender and tap the first day of the month to input a new appointment, it doesn't respond until you tap on third of the month. Or if you try to change the home-screen wallpaper for several times it crashes and doesn't respond. Once it happened to me and I restarted the device 20 times until I back up my contacts and hard reset the device. The windows on this device makes it very sluggish sometimes and you cant use it until your restart it. I came to believe that windows is not a good operating OS for cellphone. I really had a better experience with Symbian when I had my Nokia N95. Besides, every time you have hard reset the phone, all your messages will be gone unless you back up online through Microsoft my phone. But not everyone has internet on cellphone to have this option. They could have built a software to help users with backing up data like Nokia. To cut is short, if I sell my htc hd2 mini now, I will never ever think about buying any device with Windows as operating system. And for those of you who wants a good cellphone go for htc desire or Nokia N8. Nokia N8 is very lovely. [email protected]

  • Question! where there @#$% can i get proper games i.e need for speed, for this cRapy phone... I'm tired of teeter, duck hunt or whatever its called!

  • go to settings...connections... check/ tick the square in beam which says..receive all incoming beams...also in bluetooth..keep your device on discoverable mode... hope that solves the problem.

  • @chris, this phone is running on windows mobile, to install & play games for free, you don't have to jailbreak it or whatsoever to it. cracked apps & games for windows mobile are what you need. you can find them all over the net.

  • hi, yes it is

  • can somone please tell me if the HTC mini can be jailbroke like the iphone i dont wanna pay for apps & games

  • im planning want to buy this phone....but is it equipped with the video call features?

  • Do all HTC mobil phone products have really low sound volume? pls give me an idea... Which one of all HTC would i choose... Thank, :)

  • yea but the only problem is that Aria is only available in the USA, goddamit.

  • i do agree that most of the ringtones of this phone has really low sound volume even if ur ringer is 100% set high....so to correct this problem what i did is, i have set the ring tone "Ring-OldPhone", ...which is simple and pretty loud too.....it helped me atleast...now i dont miss any voice call like the way i did b4....U CAN GIVE IT A TRY!!!

  • i bought htc hd mini a month back...and chose it over wildfire.....the reasons are... 1. Beautiful weather animation( it will amaze u everyday) 2. very pretty user interface...(absolute delight to see mail, sms or album) 3. better screen resolution than wilfire...(it matters in case of taking good quality pic. 4. Interior+ Exterior look is absolutely stunning... If u really want an android phone the i would suggest u go for HTC ARIA...copy cat version of hd mini....but uses android os...everything else is same like mini (look, resolution, etc)

  • hi!! i dont know how to turn off that option...but i can help u save ur credits for the weather update thing....simply go to weather widget....click on 'menu'...then go to 'settings'...there is option about 'download data automatically'.....just unclick that...also unclick 'download when roaming'....this way it will not automatically connect to edge all the time and u'' save some credit....Hope it helps.

  • my uncle has a htc hd2 and i got to work with it for a weakend and for such a big phone with that many applications it is suprizingly userfriendly and it is absolutely beautiful. if the mini has the same software, just go find out anyway, it will be an absolute pleasure. hope that helps!

  • my uncle has a htc hd2 and i got to work with it for a weakend and for such a big phone with that many applications it is suprizingly userfriendlu and it is absolutely beautiful. if the mini has the same software, just go find out anyway, it will be an absolute pleasure. hope that helps!

  • will microsoft make winmob7 for HVGA resoulation?

  • no

  • no, it is not upgradable to windows 7.

  • try the upgrade on htc's website. it should improve the ring volume of this phone. the ROM upgrade is a must, in case you havent tried it.

  • Is this phone upgradable to wph 7???? (windows 7)

  • Hey All, Can you tell me some sites were i can update my HD MINI for free? -Software -Games -Themes Thks for your help in advance Thks Soc

  • Hi,how to remove or turn off the weather thingy below the clock? i just want it to display the clock. who cares about what the weather is. if i want to know what weather condition is i just walk outside! just some stupid animation and auto update is eating my credit.

  • Yes I need help too, bought this phone this week and it is just a beautiful phone but can't seem to hear when it rings. I have the volume up to its highest and this does not help.

  • yes the clock delay is normal

  • have this phone for a while now and i would like to share my experience.. 1)very nice looking phone. personally, i think every touch phone should be that big. 2)nice UI and very friendly. the touch flow is as smooth as it gets. you are able to switch off the HTC sense whenever you want 3)display is very good despite being 16k only. infact, phones display is the first comment i get whenever someone sees the phone. 4)music is excellent and browsing through music is almost as good as an i pod. 5)browsing through the internet with this phone is just fun. youtube videos work perfectly, and yes, better than the i phone. now the only thing that i dont like about the phone is the slight lag you will sometimes notice through your clock and weather animation. it hardly effects the performance of the phone but still, it annoys me personally. it's my first touch phone, so i dont know if this is normal or not. speaker of this phone is not sharp, although the sound of this pet is excellent on a headset.

  • i bought this phone today and it looks awesome but the sound volume is so so so low it seems that i'm going to lose many voice call and messages please tell me if u have same exp ... )))))))))))))):

  • we cant upgrade htc hd mini to windows mobile 7 :( why? just for resoulation? will microsoft make windows 7 for hVGA resoulation? ANSWER ME PLZ GUYS

  • I love this mobile. Just the one for me. I chose this over Wildfire and iPhone.

  • I bought one. Battery life is far better than iPhone anyway.

  • Fabulous phone. I will not go for iPhone.

  • if somebady install gps navigation on this phone like(Garmin, iGo, TomTom) please tell me how to do it, and where can i download it. I tried but it's not working! Thanks!!!

  • aria with windows equals hd mini.

  • I just sold this mobile after 3 months. I couldn't take it anymore. Sure it looks great and the idea is fantastic, but when it comes down to it....bad. 1) battery down everyday (minimum use of apps, web, etc) 2) if in your pocket, it will call and do stuff because of easy unlocking. very annoying. 3) camera sucks. pictures are blurry and dark etc. 4) freezes when u use apps fast and changing. 5) loading is slow, so usually pressing to fast > wrong buttons. 6) sound is not adjustable as i like. like 5 or 6 volume levels, also with music. 7) screen resolution is fantastic. clear view for youtube and stuff 8) plastic back, cracks and gets dirty in between because of loose cover. 9) touch is too sensitive, i.e. pressing numbers or sms, usually you have to correct a lot. 10) vibration is useless. well I can go on, but i think you get the picture. too sad though. i liked the idea. by the way, your welcome!

  • i got one. im happy

  • HD? Why? ¬¬

  • bought this phone two weeks back...had option between this and wildfire but i chose this one as its beautiful inside and out. i really wanted to buy android phone but not at all dissatisfied with this windows mobile. Its weather animation is mind blowing...great internet speed, excellent camera and video quality.....JUST LOVING IT!!!!

  • Hello all, especially users of this phone. Can you switch off ALL apps that auto update (eg weather, facebook etc) as i prefer a phone to be active when i want it to be, plus i prefer a totally blank main screen. Cheers.

  • hi everyone! can anyone answer my question? What is the difference between MS WINDOWS MOBILE O.S. vs ANDROID? Which is better? thanks in advance.. :D

  • can someone suggest me between HTC HD Mini and Wildfire?

  • Hi I'm from Tehran.I bought dis fon 2weeks ago.I love it beacause it is really nice, it's voice call & speakers are great, it's meno & speed is very very good, it's dimensions is nice too, I like it's featurs very much like footprints ,internet,weather demo...so I propose U to buy dis fon, I think U will not dissatisfied.

  • @kevin If you bought your 32GB card off ebay etc. then it is most likely you got a cheap chinese knock off which doesn't have the capacity it claims. First check the capacity in a laptop or computer, using a microsd adaptor.

  • i wanna buy a phone but i'm not sure between omnia ii i8000 , s8500 wave and htc hd mini. plz help me:(

  • Dear Kevin, Can you tell me how you know the mobile only use 2G of the 32G ? To be honest, this is not possible and I think somewhere you made a mistake in reading the info from your HTC.

  • Do not think something is wrong with the phone. 1) About Edge and 3G, The phone mostly select the strongest network, depending it can be Edge or 3G. Just a matter on where you exact are on that moment. 2)If you use WiFI it is normal Edge or 3G is still on the screen, because the EDGE or 3G network is still in use to receive or make calls during the time you use WIFI.Incoming or outgoing calls always use Edge or 3G. 3) Conclusion : You need to know , Windows mobile phones and also Androit phones have a lot of options and settings, it takes a while before you found out all about. Enjoy your HTC, sure one day you will become an expert in using this kind of smartphones

  • my htc hd2 will not pick up all the 32g micro sd card it use about 2g how can i make it read all 32g

  • THANKS. I had switched on WIFI. But the internet is very slow. I still feel it is running on GPRS. Also even after activating the 3g it shows the sign of using edge i.e., "E" and it is not showing 3G. Is there something wrong with my phone or do i have to change any setting.

  • From the moment you activate WiFi, it will be used as default and overrule GPRS. Beware that this will eat battery. Better just swith on the WiFi when needed

  • i am not able to use internet by connecting it to wifi. by default it uses gprs only. how do i make wifi default option to use internet. can any one please guide me?

  • wewe ni shenzi/ HTC is the BOSS of the MOBILE world OK!!!

  • new rom is OK. no problem found till now

  • Nice Compact phone with all the features. Really good.

  • Somebody tested new rom HTC HD MINI??? please post new opinion

  • thats an exhaustive list thank u

  • thanks friend.. I was looking for that...

  • Yesterday i bought dis phone and it's realy realy nice..:)

  • rom update now available htc mini...

  • hi sam, i've got the htc diamond touch 2, and i had the same problem, what u can do is: going to settings>bluetooth>more>advandce and there you can change it, for example if you want that other people can see you and that kind of things, hope you understand what i mean cuz im from holland and some things are difficult to explain in englisch.

  • Its common to all windows mobile. first you have to pair the handset you want to sent the mp3 file to. after pairing the devices, just go to your music file through file explorer . holed the file you want to send for some seconds or use directional arrow key on your keypad highlight the mp3 file press menu and send the file through bluetooth paired device.

  • Hi, I had this phone for 3 days and following are my observations. 1) Good display 2) HTC sense is a nice experience But 1) Speaker phone sound is low 2) Automatically connects to the internet with out confirmation 3) Windows mobile is not fun to use 4) and most important, This phone has HVGA resolution and almost all of the applications for windows mobile dose not support this resolution and will not run. I replaced HTC HD mini with nokia X6 with wider availability of softwares. Its a good fone if you can live with the points mentioned above.

  • also the sony ericsson vivaz too and im from birmingham england

  • but i only have these options and no more either a nokia x6 iphone 3g sony ericsson aino or htc hd mini so which one would u think is the best and would suit all my needs :/

  • Sam do you hear the nois through the speakers and headphones like mine ??!

  • I think this handset is really cool and value for money, but you may consider following features which are not present in this. For me these doesnt matter so i bought HD mini. 1) No Secondary camera for video calling. 2) No TV-out 3) Windows 6.5 instead of Windows 7. 4) No Flash for camera. Other than this its a great handset with great screen resolution, camera is good, touch is really nice, battery backup is also satisfactory, Internet works like butter :)...and it is really great in looks... So you may consider this for buying for sure.

  • I bought HTC mini around 3 weeks back and i m loving the experience, but i am struggling with the bluetooth of this handset. I couldnt find any way to send MP3 audio files via bluetooth to any other handset. Can anybody please advise how this can be done???

  • if anyone can help me,i'm tryin to connect my htc hd with my comp and i have windows 7 and the program for connecting aquire to check validation of my windows,does anyone knows program that doesent aquire validation of the windows 7?

  • Hi alex, first of all, either an iPhone, or one with Android. Long story short: 1. HTC Desire; 2. HTC Legend (slightly smaller than the Desire; look at some screenshots with Google search). _No_ compromises with these and very easy to use. What country are you from? Those phones (I'm writing about Android enabled one's, which I recommend over the iPhone), have everything, from 3G (including EDGE), to a digital compass, accelerometer, thousands of free downloadable applications via USB from the computer, WiFi or the cellular network, Adobe Flash support + Facebook + Twitter + Email integration from the start, 5 MP camera with flash light etc. "hi guys im lookin 4 a fone which has got a gd camera [...] also i would like the keyboard to be like the ones on the laptop [...] i would like the size to be something that would suit a girl in the ages of 13-15"

  • hi guys im lookin 4 a fone which has got a gd camera plus quite a gd memory dat cld at least hold up to 100 song and 100 photos and that it has facebook for free and msn or somet like ebuddy as the contract that i have doesnt have internet with it so i have to pay money to go on it so i would like it to be free and i dont mind if it has some keys also i would like the keyboard to be like the ones on the laptop. and id like it to be 3g if possible but thats not too important also i would like the size to be something that would suit a girl in the ages of 13-15. and could it be touch most of it and i would like to have bluetooth. so out of my likeings which fone would u think would suit my standards nokia x6, htc hd mini, sony ericsson aino or vivaz or the iphone 3g.

  • Xperia X8 makes a lot of sense

  • GOD for XPeria X*..will be lauched for rs 12000 -- 14000..it will fit in your budget...runs on Anderiod os..has a good performnce..

  • You can also consider xperia X8 from SOny erricson..it was launched 2 days back...a nice looking touch phone..Runs on anderiod OS..and has a strong processor 600 mhz with a zippy performance..

  • mini of course

  • hi guys im really confused between HTC HD mini and motorola milestone which do u think is better for a girl (considering the size)

  • i am desperately looking out for a phone which meets the following spec: capacitive touch screen,more than 256 mb ram,more than 3.0 inch screen,windows 7 or android software,front camera,java application,very good ui,3 or more mp camera, first i aws crazy about htc hd mini but it doesnt have a frt camera so i dropped the idea so guys please help me out. my budget is 20 ~ 25 k inr

  • OMG.... My prayers have been heard.... HTC Aria is here guys.... Android version of HTC HD Mini........

  • Is there a way to put Android on this? I mean like fully working, power efficient Android?

  • it continues for several seconds. it sucks,.

  • a sound like what you can hear from cheap tiny radios. if you get the thc mini close to your ear,with any system sound it can be heard. for example if you play a music and paus it you would hear the continues "fshshsh" sound, or if you touch hang up button to get back to home screen by the "beep" sound also the fshshsh sound would be heard! its a kinda noise :(

  • what did you mean that strange and low noise? is it when mini ringing, got strange noise coming out from the speaker?

  • No! Rint tone and sound quality is greate. there is just a strange very low noise i dunno wat is it !!!

  • ringtone and sound quality of htc mini not good enough? is it difficult to notice it's ringing when at the noisy place?

  • i just bought this phone. i noticed a big problem in sound reproduction. a permanent noise like "fshsh" can be heard. ofcors not loud but noticable. any one got my problem ????

  • U can try HTC HD2 instead. It very much like the iphone but better.

  • I don't agreed with you. I have been using HTC product for the past 3 yrs and have no regret using it. I find that HTC product is much better than the other phone suck as Nokia and Samung. But I agreed that the price is quite steep.

  • actually i did the Update for HTC HD Mini Ringtone clarity enhancement, but its as befor :(, am very much disapointed with dis htc sound

  • :-? wat update exactly ?

  • Download the update!

  • i just bought this phone. i noticed a big problem in sound reproduction. a permanent noise like "fshsh" can be heard. ofcors not loud but noticable. any one got my problem ????

  • There are many software and games for this phone but not all are working well because of unusual hvga resolution.I know Need For Speed Undercover works well on it ,with accelerometer.

  • Hey guys, has anyone tried both this phone and the lg gd880 mini? I'd like to know which is better? Thanks.

  • Hello... I bought the phone but i dont understand is it a smartphone or not? any download for software or games for this phone? anyone can explaine to me... and suggest me where to get software application & Games? does hd mini can play 3d games?

  • Don't buy HTC product anymore.. The price is not reasonable.. The quality of the product is so poor.. No value added for your money.. The battery life is so bad for every kind of HTC hphone.. Trust me..u will regret with HTC product.. They like profit but didn't give benefit to us..

  • i have bought this phone, but very disspointed with it battery....the battery fully empty when i used it arround 10 to 14 hours... r u guys have same experience with me?

  • no stylus...as this is has a capacitive screen

  • kittyyyyy yay yay yay!!!

  • i am from dubai and i have bought htc hd mini..there is no english support on it,from where can i download english rom for it, please help me

  • Hey guys...got this phone two days ago for RS.22000. I am quite happy with the phone but not entirely satisfied. The build quality is not good, much like china phone. But the screen looks awesome. Processor is fast enough but battery drains quickly. It lasted only 1.5 days on average use. Also the phone gets heated up if you use one application for a long time. The SenseUI is very innovative and the screen is also very responsive. Overall the phone is pretty awesome but for 22000, the build quality was expected to be better.

  • Skyfire is not woking yet,maybe with a new version.But there are other browsers with full flash support,so it's not a problem.

  • After viewing a video on YouTube uploaded by pocketnow.com where he demonstrates the non-compatibility of Skyfire (and who knows other apps) because of the weird screenres given by HTC to this device. Ive decided not getting the Mini for it is not worth it.

  • no stylus

  • hey bro ... U r using this phone... Can u plzz tell me dat this phone have Stylus or not ??? Plzzz tell me soon.... I wana buy this phone.

  • Guyzz... Does this phone have Stylus ??? Plzz reply me

  • Is it true that Skyfire isn't working on this mini because of the screen resolution? Would anyone can confirm?

  • I think HTC's gone too far naming this Mini... Cause what's exactly is the "HD" on this device? It is deceiving in more ways than one.

  • indeed, I am using it 4 or 5 days now and it is really a very nice mobile. I also have the HTC Tattoo and that was a terrible mistake from my side. To my opinion Androit is still far behind Windows 6.5, just the media cry and cry to let it sound better, Androit market ? HaHa come on boys, most of the applications are games and complete useless programs.Tell me who cares the Androit market ?

  • HTC HD Mini: Small, simple and brilliant,

  • that phone is really nice.....

  • Buy htc legend - Android -Camera with flash -better battery life

  • on legend you need to buy this in the Androit shop as it is not standard, Mini has standard. I also had to make the same choice, I choose mini, but only reason for that was the size of the mini, not the technical advantage. Both are very good mobile, I just like more the size of HD mini

  • very nice phone, just use it for two days but already crazy happy with it, windows mobile for sure is not dead yet

  • I am totally confused between HD Mini and Legend. I need exchange support, Office editor/viewer. pls help

  • Hi Mitra, Can you tell me if the battery life is satisfying? Thank you, Eki

  • I have this phone for sometime now. I do have mostly positively comments about the phone. 1. The screen is pretty go. 2. Msging is a breeze once you are down with it. 3. Camera takes good pic outside in Daylight.. Not the worse i have seen but sad for a 5 mpx shooter. 4. Phone is pretty responsive ( use the task manager judiciously to keep the RAM free and you will have no problems ) 5. Size is a key factor and makes this handy than a HD or an X10. 6. WM 6.5 and the Sense UI seems to do the job just fine and without hassles. Occasional user may have a tad bit of bad luck with this but this phone gives enough bang for you buck.. On the - side. 1. Speaker vol is not that great. 2. Camera is not the best that i have come across .. would be great if it had a flash and a better cam ui.

  • Thanks guys writing about problems. Save me money and time no buy this S...Hi...T phone.

  • Dear All, I use the mini now for 2 weeks. It's ok, but not a masterpiece. I did it for the size and looks, but if I could spend my money over again, I defintely would go for a Iphone even if its bigger. The mini is just toooo slow and eats battery majorly. Resolution and stuff is great, but I use a phone and not just look at it. I wish there was a bigger mHz processor in it. Oh yea, where are the freaking Apps?? with the Iphone i would have 100 Apps, now I just have 2, the rest (20 Apps or some :P ) you must buy. Design 8, Features 8, Performance 4.

  • Friends...I am using HTC Touch Diamond(2G) for the past 10 months or so...I am terribly disappointed by it's performance.Within a month of purchase started having rebooting problem...got main-board replaced.It was barely 6 months and last week another problem started--the power button would automatically get pressed and this would happen like that till the battery gets drained.Got it fixed at service center..but within a day it started again.It's now again with the service center for observation. This is my 4th visit to the service center now..and don't know how many more are still left before my warranty is gone in the month of the July 2010.I really loved the features but what's the point if there is no reliability...every few months it would lie at the service center for anything between a week to a month.May be it's my particular device and my luck....but still thought of sharing it...if at all needed....Think twice before investing on HTC.

  • Why WM??? Because this phone GREATNESS is because of Windows Mobile, Not Stupid Android or Cheap Symbian.

  • why no flash in camera?

  • I can not change the language as it is a windows phone

  • Hello, Does anyone know where I can find HTC HD Mini games? What type of files are these? Thanks!

  • you can buy this phone from amazon uk for 315 GBP which is a hell of a deal

  • Another question. I seem to be unable to save my attachments. I am able to download them but i cannot save them somewhere. And my SD card which is already inserted into my phone cannot seem to be utilized. I can format my SD card but my phone doesn't seem to read that my SD card is already inserted. How do i solve these problems? Anyone can help? Thanks!

  • Ok thank you :)

  • HELP!!!!!!! i bought this phone online and when i turned it on, it's in SPANISH, and i have no idea how to set my language to english, can someone guide me through?

  • Does this phone support flash? Most of the website are flash designed.

  • Yeah...it work now for the AVI file... Thanks!!!

  • ITS the best that they say but i have played with it and its a copy of Mega -d (touch2) the only diffrence is that they have changed few thigs here and there . There are series of problems . The Battery drains down on high rsolution it connects to WIFI every 10 seconds you cannot take complete back up on mmc USB charging takes time . volume controls tear on the speaker side

  • phone over 300 euro doesn't have video call camera?shame...phone from 50 euro price long time a go has this option............

  • Read this to fix it:

  • I have try that Core Player before, but when it play "AVI" file video it only have sound no picture and it doesn't work on the "Real" file!

  • Read the manual.It is written there how to turn off all data conections.

  • HTC's Sense UI is real positive for this device. It masks the inadequacies of WM 6.5 and you can even forget this is WM device. I tried the Sony Xperia X2. It's pure garbage. The X10 is better but with Android 1.6 it's already outdated. No doubt the HD mini is not up to par with the Desire, Legend, or HD2, but it does a fair job. If you want a clean, simple, touch device that can offer fun, in a compact and sleek package, this device is for you. The camera is missing a flash, but the 5MP resolution works very well in daylight outdoors. The video is a respectable VGA. Not the best, nor the worst I have ever seen. Well done HTC.

  • u can install a freeware data controller... however, for detail, i do not know..someone had tried it before, and said its good, u can give it a try..

  • hey, my data connection just keeps switching on on its own and it's killing my battery. I've already turned off auto twitter and facebook updates. It's better now but it still turns on on its own at times even when my phone is in sleep mode. Can anyone help?

  • Install Core Player.

  • The phone are excellence, but I can't change the alarm tone and it doesn't play "AVI", "RealMedia" or other file of video. It's only play 3GP file, so can any one solve mine problem please?

  • beutiful phone and all function in this mobile

  • I have been using the HTC MINI for the past 5 days, so far no big issues but taking a note that still Windows Mobile OS hangs sometimes.

  • Check out this HTC HD Mini Review

  • can u get rid of the weather covering the whole screen....... on main screen. just want normal wall paper.

  • unfortunately, nope. seems htc didnt like to put flash....

  • buy neither handset, the android is far supirior in my opinion as ast the rate that it is growing in terms of apps avaliable and numbers sold aned it has the highest percentage of free apps of all OS. But in terms of handset get the xperia x10 its hardware far surpassses both htc and its timescape and mediascape make everything so easy! Plus there will be a free upgrade to the new android version when it is ready!

  • camera got a flash r not?

  • Which OS is better between Windows Mobile & Android? I desire for an expert opinion mentioning pros & cons of both OS. I'm confused about which one to buy - HTC HD Mini or HTC Legend. Is there anybody to help me with his/her valuable opinion?

  • It has accelerometer but rotation is very, very... very limited based on the original firmware. I have downloaded various rotation s/ware which was a disappointing experience as they are riddled with glitches where the HD mini is concerned. Apart from that, its a great phone for its size. capacitive touch on such a small smart phone was my buying incentive

  • hi can any one pls tell me if this phone does auto rotate. i know its stupid becoause its written but i havent seen any videos yet which make it autorotate. Because i love the music player of hd2 and hope its the same wit this. And what is the problem with chinese instead of english?

  • no secoundary camera !! no good !!

  • what is the battery like and volume... thanks.

  • Would you please mention the retail price of unlocked version of HD Mini in US dollar or in Euro? And what about the audio quality through loud speaker & also through headset? Thanks in advance. Waiting for your reply.

  • Hi Can anyone tell me the sar value for the HD Mini is.I believe you can find it on the side of the retail box.Also can you tell me what the speakerphone is like to us.I found the HD2 speaker when used as a phone to be very tinny to the point that I couldn't us it to make calls.I sold it because off that problem.I us the speaker alot. Regards Bert

  • NO videocall cam!!

  • I just got my HTC HD Mini in the UK on Tuesday 13th April 2010, so far the phone has been excellent and fast. Whatever problems anyone is facing with the HD Mini should be due to certain careless mistake. I wouldn't condemn anybody's opinion but for my self, the HTC HD mini is an excellent device, most especially it's Wifi Router....it's Awesome.

  • I agree with denvers comments, I experienced the same thing. I bought it last monday in taipei. The store said language can be change anytime. But when I arrived @ airport I inserted the battery and only chinese language shown. By accident there was a store inside airport selling htc and he said this htc hd mini the whole taiwan is in chinese. I really shocked ann speechless. I think htc must provide the downloadable english rom so that the users who travels and buy from asian countries can be safely purchased the htc hd mini.

  • Be careful with this since I putchased 2 days ago n find out that is's in traditional chinese. I asked the htc customer service n they said the device that in chinese language cannot be upgraded to english rom. Be wise buying this htc mini. I really regret w/ my decision.

  • the legend is better than HD mini.

  • You have some arguments or just talking without thinking?

  • comparing hd2 and hd mini... differ in the price...does it worth to go for hd mini????

  • Overall this is a nice windows mobile but the price is quite expensive....

  • even samsung omnia i900 lauched2 yr ago is better than it

  • yepp the price is 275 in pound and in dollar price is 419. so in indian rupees it should be about 20000. in this price it is a very good windows mobile. but if you want something else in same price then you can go for samsung omnia pro b7610. that is a very nice windows mobile with large qwerty key pad and great multimedia phone with amoled screen. so you can go for that. good luck.

  • 440 EUR for this is not worth it

  • i want to play 3d games with this phone. is it possible?

  • How do you know that ? Did you test it ? It hasn't been release yet ! And one more thing; Do you know anything about the price ?

  • its processor is very fast.its camera quality is descent.its equal to 8mp.

  • i heard that htc ic gettin an american site so duz this mean they will have some of their phones to work on the 850/1900 american 3G so u can use it on rogers or at&t like nokia has its american version

  • Will t-mobile carry the HTC HD3?

  • Chinese site has got hold of the HTC HD3 specifications from some HTC employees. If you thought Qualcomm�s 1 Ghz Snapdragon CPU is the biggest thing for the year 2010, think again?! HTC HD3 will be powered by the Qualcomm�s 1.5Ghz Snapdragon processor. HTC HD3 Specifications Other HTC HD3 specs that have been leaked includes: Display: 4.5-inch display (1280 x 800 resolution) Processor: Qualcomm�s 1.5Ghz Snapdragon Camera: 8 MP camera with Xenon flash, front camera Video: HD video recording (720p), 1080p video ready Memory: 1GB RAM, 1GB ROM Other: HDMI, USB 2.0, 3.5 mm audio jack Capacity: 16GB internal memory (microSD card support up to 32GB) Connectivity: 4G support, WiMAX, Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi Battery: 1800 mAH OS: Windows Mobile 7 Considering the rapid improvement in the hardware specs that HTC is using in its devices, the HTC HD3 specs mentioned above look highly possible by the release date given. HTC HD3 Release Date The release date that has been included with the leaked specifications sheet of HTC HD3 is for November 2010.

  • Not only it does not support the 3-button requirement, it does not meet the rest of hardware requirements released by MS. So what makes you think that it will be upgradable to WinMo 7 ?!!

  • Ahoy there! As some of you may know, the Windows 7 mobile OS is only going to work if the phone supports Microsofts "Three Button" rule. There was an article posted on GSM arena a few weeks ago telling us how Microsoft has yet, once again, shafted people. Especially when the HD2 is one of the most powerfull handsets on the market..... However, the company I work for are getting this and I can't wait to compare it to my HD2. I recon HTC are going to dominate the market this year

  • guys, for me it sounds like a good new. HD mini doesnt has too many buttons. Its just fine. And for sure it will be upgradable for windows mo 7, as does the hd2. It doesnt make sense. too many buttons? It is a kind of market. Make people wait and wait, talking and talking each time more about the topic.

  • guys if you actually paid attention you would know the HD2 mini has too many buttons

  • even HD2 isn't upgradable into WM7, doubt this one will

  • Is it ready for WM7 ?

  • I really expect one of the HD versions to have a dedicated camera button.... Very tough taking pictures by touching the screen... Same problem with Touch 2 as well...

  • This is similar to T-mobile but this is nice thn T-mobile phone

  • So Can I use this with T- Mobile?? and get all the service such as 3G and T-mobile provided service??

  • You can't upgrade to WM 7 because the phone doesn't support requirements.

  • Thanks for the answers guys. Also I don't know which 1 to go for HD Mini or Legend. I've never had an android or windows mobile phone. So I don't mind whichever. But not sure which one I want.

  • LOL, its still better than iPhone's. What are you talking about?

  • It can store practically unlimited SMS & Contacts.. Take this I have an old HTC which has ~1800 SMS

  • I have one more question, if I buy this and Windows 7 mobile comes out, will it be free for me?

  • Very low screen resolusion.

  • Can't wait to get my hands on one of those!!

  • practically unlimited

  • I think the resolusion of 320 x 480 pixels, 3.2 inches instead of 480 x 800 pixels, 3.2 inches of the diamond 2 is very pure of course the different from one screen to another is in technology so will be seen in practice.

  • I think unlimited but not sure.

  • One thing I want to know this, how many text messages will this phone hold? I have never had a HTC before so I'm unsure.

  • good looking and smart feauter this phone i waiting this phone.

  • good looking and smart feauter this phone i waiting this phone.

  • good looking and smart feauter this phone i waiting this phone.

  • will this phone work with TMobile 3G USA ?

  • You can't handle the HTC :))

  • hahahahahaahah

  • It's not so easy,dude...You have to press a soft key to see the icons.If this is too dificult to you DO NOT BUY this phone! I repeat DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

  • does this phone gives you the easy access to get programs, games, music????? the availability of the things i need to put in in these phone, is it easy like iphone??????

  • agreed!

  • i just dont see the point of the hd min the idea of the htc hd2 is the size of the screen so why change it its an amazin phone

  • It's the mobile that I'm waiting for: it's compact and the performances are fine. I think the resolution perfect fits the 3.2'' screen. A bigger resolution could give problems when you're surfing on the web.

  • chk out the expansys website here.. Prices should be kept low in order to attract large mkt share,HD mini customer base should be big...

  • Dear Pal, Its GBP 350.00 in price in U.K (incl VAT)

  • Is going to be way too expensive for its own good... I'm sure of it. Not worth over �250 but it will still probably �400 for sure.

  • The battery should hace been biger in capacity i.e of 1400 or 1500 mAh talk time should be more... (most important for all winmo phones) AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors would have been appreciable & also for camera dual LED Flash. hTc people pls listen....

  • bad hd2? Best phone ever....writing on it now.

  • no secondary camera and no flash is theeeee main problemmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!

  • where is the camera Flash? all andorid has a camera flash and all new wm devices has no camera flash except the bad hd2 to make people buy the selly bad andoroid!!!

  • you must mean proportional, if it was inversely proportional then the bigger the screen the less resolution you would get. Of course the more screen you have the more pixels you can fit on it and so the bigger the resolution will be. For a 'mini' phone it's not that small though...

  • he means the 65k colors

  • do you know resolution is inversely proportional to screen size? On the screen of this size the resolution is fair enough

  • why is the resolution such a downer? the IPhone has the same resolution and nobody's complaining.

  • No. There will be an HD3 this year (Sept or Nov).... I have the HD2 and waiting on spec's for the HD3 which will run WM7..................

  • i think the only downside about this phone is the resolution. other than that it is perfect phone to someone not into big phone like myself.

  • Android is the best, WindowsMobile sux (it should be only used for pocket pc, not for phone)... that's my opinion.

  • why not Windows Phone (Windows Mobile)? is it make u disappointed with this OS)?

  • why is htc pulling away from android. now we all now microsoft is a giant but to cater mostly to them is a big let down. here in the U.S. we are waiting for smart phones with full internet experience, java script, flashplayer, etc. were hoping htc would deliver the next generation of android phones guess not. guess customers here are left waiting for a company to do just that and that company wil corner the U.S. market and end the iphone generation.

  • It'll be cool to run Windows Phone 7 OS on this one. But its said that Windows Phone 7 will support minimum resolution of WVGA. Another interesting thing is the name. Isn't this another successor of diamond???

  • its an hd2 successor but the screen resolution is pretty low. have you noticed that? thats the only thing that discourages me from buying it

  • hey i noticed something...the screen resolution is pretty low isn t it?

  • i hope it can play 640x480 videos without problems.. may HTC HERO cant play 640x480 videos correctly.

  • WM is the best, HD mini is exelent device

  • I think HTC has gone crazy.

  • why windows mobile whyyyyy????

  • it is really mini for a phone with a 3.2 inch screen well, the specs are spectacular. a perfect mini successor for hd2

  • Just a thought, while im extremely excited by this phone, for its perfect balance of features, hardware, software, size and overall cheekyness (it knows just how perfect is is), i am a tad worried about one thing...if it does everything the HD2 does, but its CPU (600mhz) is just over half the HD2's snapdragon (1ghz), then are we going to feel it? Oh and who needs two cameras when the inside is yellow? I mean, seriously, ITS YELLOW! Genius.

  • I have Xperia X1 and need to change it as its lagging too much and the keyboard keys are getting stuck...was deciding between HD2 and HD mini, but cause of the massive size of the HD2 I think i wait a bit longer and get the HD Mini...it's perfect for a woman... :)

  • I have to disagree. This phone will be perfecto. It has everything a user can possibly want, except for making sandwiches (although you can use the phone to order some). I am really looking forward to smartphones with a smaller form factor. This phone is like a slice of cool from a cake of awesome.

  • superb phone for htc Hd lovers........front camera for video calls would definitely be an advantage.

  • Imfao this might be what HTC needed to compete with the likes of nokia, SE, Samsung, LG, etc, with their small 3.2 inch display. Some users don't wanna carry more than 120gr of gear or two apple like devices. Also, most HTC models have ubber displays so what they must be trying to do is to widen their market. Nice done HTC.

  • gosh its like a downgrade of HTC HD 2, having many of its specifications gone =(

  • one and only sucessor of HTC Diamond.

  • there isn't a pocket office in this phone ?? which one better this phone or X2 or HD2 ??

  • HTC please please please add: 1. Dual LED Flash 2. Front Facing Camera for video calling 3. TV-Out Port if you dont want to add this pls. make a phone that has the HTC HD mini specs plus these 3 specs included... more power...

  • Who needs a secondary camera anyways?? Ask yourself, do you really need a secon camera on your phone?? I have one on my w705 now, and I never used it!! So stop bullying around second cameras on HTC and iPhone. I never actually seen a person placing a videocall

  • what? this no camera this smart phone

  • OK new model and new tecnologia

  • No Secondary camera???? come on HTC WAKE UP First u create a superb phone & u ppl don't keep such a small thing r u guyz crazy??

  • small but not so bad...

  • firstly "DO ONE!" secondly HTC have finally created a device for women! ill be buying one for the GF i wanted to get her a HD2 but its size wasnt the femine...i know i cant spell...this will suit her great! another crack in the mold HTC keep it up

  • this have no secondary also !!! why why why ?? when will HTC provide a complete phone???

  • just another grate HTC :)

  • just like it :)

  • This is the most sensible size for a mini of a 4.3" phone. 3.2" is not small while 3.5" is too big to be called a mini.

  • First, I feel cool with myself for predicting this as at last week that there will be a mini hd2. yipee:) My next prediction is working for htc...

  • thats why it called "HTC Touch HD Mini"

  • Dear HTC, Why did you release this in 3.2 inch it is already a crowded market and a shame it is not a 3.5 inch as the 4.3 inch version is too big and this is too small to use full touch benefits!!! I love your product but once again I have to give it a miss, it is either too big & heavy for the 4.3 or too small to use in this 3.2, marketing should have been sack; as common sense should have apply the screen is too small to use full touch at 3.2 in an already crowded market, WAKE-UP!!!

  • ... and 3rd, finaly :P w00t Hope it's gonna be cheap.

  • 2nd, woot! hope it's gonna get snapdragon cpu!
