HTC one mini. Any regrets
- Thread starter subh98
- Start date
Not once has it even crossed my mind, love the phone. Development isn't as popular as the One, but its better than it was last year. Great phone IMO

In the beginning I had some reservations, but with all phones there are downsides and problems. The phone is quite solid, though my micro usb port has come loose and doesn't work with my computer but still charges fine. This is because I have been quite rough with my cables though, so my fault. I used to be a Samsung fan, but have come to love my HTC phone. If you do decide to get this phone, maybe avoid the white/silver model as there are a few complaints about the plastics on this model. Maybe the issue has been resolved but you don't know if you get old stock from your supplier.

+1 Very true, get the black model or any besides the white/silver one because there are some hairline crack problem. I have at&t so there were no choices between colors so I had to get the white/silver one and I had a replacement for the hairline cracks. Then after like 5 months of the replacement phone that I'm using right now has 2 hairline cracks. If I spot 1 more or before the 1 year warranty ends, I will ask for a replacement.
Means except manufacturer defects you don't have any probs. What a contrast. Same question was asked in xperia z1 compact forum and people had lots of complaints. Well in the end it proves specs don't matter, user experience does.

i just got mine a few months ago. I was an iphone guy since the first one... tried to go android with the galaxy s4, but ended up taking it back because it was too inconvienent using it with one hand. Considering I was running an alpha of cm11, which just finally went to beta, I'd say it's a great phone, considering I'm not even running stable hardware. battery life is at least on par with my iphone (as long as i'm careful with what's running). So for me.. it's the best adroid fit for myself i've found.
At the moment everything is perfect to me with my little baby
( i have it since it was relased in Italy, from september)I like it but man there is some isssues with the 4.4.2 update, like no notification previews on the lockscreen. is anyonw eles getting this problem or is it just me?
Yeah its a hell of a beautiful smartphone. In India only HTC one dual sim is there which is thicker than the original and does not have unibody. So that makes the mini one of the most beautiful smart phones and the most beautiful in HTC's portfolio.At the moment everything is perfect to me with my little baby

With Jelly Bean, I wasn't impressed with the battery life. Now that I have KitKat, it seems to be far more acceptable. It's still not as good as the old One S (man, that phone was ahead of its time)!
The only other regret is the camera. It works beautifully in low light situations (like dimly lit restaurants), but during all other occasions, the photos have such low resolution that they only look good while viewed on the phone. Viewing them on a computer screen reveals a lack of sharpness and detail in the photos.
Other than that, this phone is sexy and meets all my daily performance needs.

It's a sexy phone, but the battery is crap. Hopefully this will get better with CM 11.
BTW, the CM11 that is being worked on is for the AT&T version, will that work with international phones? I'm in sweden and not on at&t.

So. There are probably no performance issues. And do you have any probs in running high end apps.

Only regret is... that in december i swaped first Silver mini... for cracks...obviously.... and on the swap phone cracks appeared second day of owning it ). I didnt want to stay 2 weeks without it... so i kept it like that until yesterday(many cracks appeared meantime)
So... waiting for replacement...back to my trusty Desire S.
But i love the phone... the shape... the design, good speed.. no freezes, briliant camera in night conditions...superb screen, and good battery comparing to desire s

Heavy lag or minor. By the way does FIFA 14, real racing 3 and NFS mW work.

Pretty heavy, but i tried it on sense 4.3 so maybe there is less lagg on 4.4.2. I cant confirm that nfsmw looks beautiful on this device and has zero lagg!

Thanks. So as far as I can see nothing is wrong about this device. Um how's the camera. And are there any bugs in the software like in Sony. Disappointed with z1c looks beautiful has top class specs but the software is so buggy that probably it will be a nightmare using it.

The HTC one mini is, hands down, the best phone I ever owned. By far.
love this phone, especially the size, compared to my former N4 and N5.
My only complaint: no factory image availaible, as on the nexus.
HTC service in Austria told me, when flashing an RUU, they MUST replace the Motherboard as well!,
So no way back to stock for me, as in the nandroid there is Stock recovery, as far as i know.

I just got this phone and there are 3 cracks already on it from 4 days of light use.Only regret is... that in december i swaped first Silver mini... for cracks...obviously.... and on the swap phone cracks appeared second day of owning it

Anyone use a case to prevent or hide the cracks? If so, which one?
FYI, I just got this case in the mail today : http://www.ebay.com/itm/331168743655
It's super thin, fits like a glove and makes the phone feel a lot better (more grippy). It kept slipping out of my hand caseless.
I'm not sure how long it will last but I'm going to order a few more anyway.
