HTC Radar, Titan with Windows Phone: size matters - tweakers.net

How big can a smartphone, and how small a tablet? This question arises more and more manufacturers are now the boundaries between smartphones and tablets actively exploring. Until recently, it was simple: a device with 7 “screen is a tablet, a device with a 4.3″ screen may still be called a smartphone

.

When Dell released the first Streak from last year. Given the naming of products which followed – smartphones were ‘Venue’ to be called, and tablets ‘Streak’ – saw Dell device with its 5 “screen as a tablet, although it has all the characteristics of a phone Samsung did then. even further with the Galaxy Note. works as The Note smartphone, running a version of Android smartphone and can call. With its 5.3 “screen, however, he is very big.

Now there’s the HTC Titan. HTC has made things a bit more subtle addressed: the screen size of the device is 4.7 “, and because the edges of the screen are made thinner, the device would not be ridiculous much larger than its predecessors

.

With the Titan and the smaller HTC Radar also corroborates the first two Dutch Windows Phones on the market. The first Windows Phone smartphones are landed here almost a year already for sale, but with limitations: the menu language was not Dutch, keyboard knew no Dutch words, and services as download store Marketplace and gaming service Xbox Live not working with Dutch Live Accounts .

HTC will especially try to bring. Radar to the man The company has signed deals with all the major retailers and will be a major marketing campaign to try to bring to the attention of the unit. HTC Radar sees as the main device, because it still is afraid that the Titan will be.

too large for many people

Incidentally HTC will soon get competition from Nokia, which will release yet. before the end of this year Windows Phone handsets for the Dutch market Although the market share of Nokia has shrunk considerably, the manufacturer still has the best known and most trusted name in the telecom market. However, HTC says more advantages than disadvantages to expect from the big competitor: Windows Phone comes as more attention, think HTC. “We can not pull Windows Phone cart on our own,” said HTC Benelux director Mark Moons.

Tweakers.net took not only the radar, but also and especially the Titan under the microscope. With a 4.7 “screen, improved camera and faster processor, the Titan on paper the better performance. We investigate how the device is put together, how it behaves in practice, and of course we check that huge thing still fits in your pocket.

Preview and hands-on with the HTC One Mini - GSM Helpdesk Netherlands

22-07-2013 – The last week presented HTC One Mini is, as its name implies, a smaller version of the HTC One. This preview is GSM Helpdesk ‘hands-on’ and brings the unit expanded image.

By: Tim Wijkman – There were literally months of rumors prior to the introduction of the HTC One Mini. Last Thursday came to an end when all the rumors HTC HTC One Mini officially presented. The HTC One Mini is, as its name implies, a smaller version of the HTC One, the flagship of HTC at the moment. The HTC Mini One will be located in mid-September in the Netherlands in the shops and in addition to its smaller size also quite a lot ‘smaller’ in terms of price.

Price-conscious

Because more and more Dutch may choose to close or keep their current ‘favorable’ subscription and thereby release to purchase a device a sim-only subscription is less and less often chosen for an expensive so-called high-end smartphone. Nevertheless, we naturally prefer to not have too much compromise on specifications and functionality. For this target group has therefore coined the HTC HTC One Mini. The HTC One Mini should provide the same user experience as her ‘big’ brother, however, than for a retail price that 250 euro lower.

No concessions around user experience
The development of the HTC One Mini HTC had the ultimate user experience are paramount. The company has looked at how could a ‘cheaper’ device. Realized the same user experience All major plus points of the “great” HTC One are also preserved. The HTC One Mini The most striking similarity is still shaping. Like the ‘big’ HTC One, is the HTC One Mini from a seamless piece of aluminum cut allowing a seamless device with a premium feel and design originated.

Same ‘key features’
Just like in the ‘big’ One HTC, the HTC One Mini also has two ‘front-facing’ received speakers. The speakers are deliberately placed at the front because the sound is directed while playing for example a video on the viewer. As a result the sound standard already better than when the speaker would be, as is the case with many other smartphones. Placed at the back of the device

HTC also has the HTC One Mini her HTC Boom Sound ‘ sound reinforcement technology applied. This ensures that the sound from the speakers relatively small yet has such high quality possible. Of course can be also simply a headset connected to the device. Because also integrated Beats Audio, the HTC One Mini studio quality sound on lead vocals.

Display
In a smaller device, also fits a smaller screen. HTC gave during the presentation of the HTC One Mini that the company does not really believe in the big screen sizes of many smartphones of today. The 4.7 inch display in the “great” HTC One is already big enough. According to HTC The smaller 4.3-inch screen in the HTC One Mini makes the smartphone just extra handy and user-friendly because the device is easier to operate with one hand.

Because the screen size of the HTC One Mini with 4.3 inch approximately 0, is 4 inches smaller than the screen size of the HTC One, HTC may also work with a slightly lower screen resolution without sacrificing image quality is much worse. In this way, so HTC can ‘save’ without compromising user experience. In fact, the user experience even better because a compact unit once easier in the hand.

Small but mighty camera
The cream of the crop in the ‘bigger’ HTC One was called ‘HTC Ultra Pixel Camera. This camera has a great lens and a considerably larger camera sensor with a resolution of ‘only’ 4-megapixel making the pixels in the sensor are significantly larger and therefore absorb more light. Although the pictures ‘only’ 4-megapixel are, HTC promises to be the most perfect picture quality. In this field, HTC also want to do in its HTC One Mini no concessions and the smaller version of the HTC One also features the Ultra Pixel camera. From our review of the HTC One revealed that the camera actually know very good performance to put away.

Ultra Pixel camera is accompanied by an LED flash. Of course, it is also possible to provide high-quality and resolution videos to be taken. The HTC One Mini can capture videos in Full HD format.

Video diary
The great feature “HTC Zoe ‘is present in the HTC One Mini. a ‘Zoe’. A ‘Zoe’ (pronounced “Zowie”) is a short video of 30 seconds can be. Compiled by the HTC One Mini itself Professional transitions and effects are applied so that it is possible for example to make. Short a professional video of every day Zoe HTC can be used, for example to keep track of a video diary. Both photos and videos are combined in HTC Zoe.

Moving pictures
Because the HTC One Mini also 5 seconds before and after shooting keeps on going with ‘record ‘is also still able to bring. HTC One Mini the gallery to life As a result, in the gallery ‘moving pictures’ shown, a very nice feature in HTC Sense 5.

What technical details
Under the hood of the HTC One Mini where to find than in the larger HTC One. what other hardware So the HTC One Mini runs on a ‘cheaper’ 1.7 GHz dual-core processor with 1 gigabyte of memory. The ‘big’ HTC One has a 1.7 GHz quad-core processor with 2 gigabytes of memory. This ‘half’ seems in the regular use of the smaller HTC One Mini for. Not really adverse effects The HTC One Mini still seems to work as quickly and smoothly as her big brother.

On other points, HTC has managed to save some costs by doing minor adjustments. Thus, the HTC One Mini with a storage capacity of 16 gigabytes instead of 32 gigabytes. Incidentally, this is still more than enough to store hundreds of apps, photos, videos and / or music files.

HTC One Mini runs directly from the factory to the (currently) latest version of Android, Android 4.2.2. Over that HTC has its own HTC Sense interface placed fifth in which HTC Blink Feed central. Blink Feed is a home screen application where the latest news and updates from social networks are charged.

Some HTC smartphones gebrickt after WP GDR2 Update - Techzine

Last week, Microsoft and HTC started rolling out the GDR2 update for the HTC Windows Phone 8X and 8S. Now it appears that some HTC devices after the update gebrickt.

Microsoft rolls out the update gradually to devices, to identify problems early and to its impact as small as possible.

It appears that this has been the right decision, because some 8X and 8S owners report problems. After the update, the phone freeze when playing music. Even after removal of the battery, the camera will do nothing.

may have to do with updates to Xbox Music the problem, but that is still unclear.

HTC One Mini is a fact - Telegraaf.nl

Hands-on: first test of HTC One Mini - ZDNet.nl

Summary: If you have the HTC One nice but what is great, then there’s the HTC One Mini. The features of the HTC One geschoenlepeld are therefore in a smaller package.

If you

HTC One nice but what is great, then there’s the HTC One Mini. The features of the HTC One geschoenlepeld are therefore in a smaller package. The aluminum exterior remains. The result is a smaller, less powerful and less intimidating phone that still clearly a member of the One-family.

After many rumors and leaks, is the confirmation of the HTC Mini One not very shocking and features are already not surprising. Yet, in the limited testing time that I had so far, I was already impressed. The slower processor is worrying and will competition from the Samsung Galaxy Mini S4 have to deal with, but HTC’s latest looks promising.


Design

Much of the appeal of the HTC One is its excellent build quality. The device is milled from a block of aluminum and bends, breaks or cracks if you firmly grasps it. The HTC One Mini has the same strength, which may not be surprising, because it is also made with a unibody.

One Mini deviates from the design of its big brother on the edges. They are not finished with polished metal, but with the cheaper polycarbonate. Advantage is that the less time and effort to make the phone. Something also has an impact on the price.

At 122 grams, the Mini One 21 grams lighter than the One, a weight that seems appropriate, given its smaller size. The Mini One is 63.2 millimeters wide, 132 millimeters high and 9.25 millimeters thick. And that is actually on any side but a minor difference with the HTC One.

On paper the difference does not seem large, but if je’m're holding, it is immediately clear that the housing of the Mini less high and wide.

A major drawback to the millimeter planing is that the HTC One Mini also has a smaller screen. Screens of more than 4 inches in diameter are not so very old, but today is the Mini One 4.3 inch in the middle, compared with the samples where the addition is in the shop.

The LCD screen also has a lower resolution of 720p and a pixel density of 341ppi. (The One has 4.7-inch, 1080p, 468ppi.) I have to say that the difference is hard to notice in the short time I tested the unit.

If you’re a fan of the robust speakers of the HTC One, which HTC Tree Sound calls, then you will be pleased to learn that the Mini One has the same function. HTC confirmed that the Mini One has a similar sound experience with each of the speakers powered by its own amplifier.

One Mini has two drilled audio grids around its screen. The speakers are smaller, but because I could not test, it is not clear whether that has an impact on the sound quality.


functions, components and camera

Despite its decline against the One, the One Mini features a very similar list. The device runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean with the freshest version of HTC’s own Sense UI on top. This means that the new collector Blink Feed still the home screen inpalmt, whether you like it or not. Also: weather animations everywhere

Be warned that the engine in this phone a less powerful 1.4GHz dual-core Snapdragon is 400. The original One has the 1.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor and 600. The One Mini also has only half the RAM, 1GB. And although everything went smoothly during the tests, the slower processor sooner or later have a negative impact on performance.

I am especially impressed with the camera that takes pictures quickly. HTC explained to me that the Mini an identical image processing system uses as its predecessor. Like the HTC One, Mini One used the same HTC Sense Image 4MP with the same ultra-pixel sensor. The One Mini optical image stabilization, missing sin because it has an impact on pictures in low light.


Outlook

I am glad to see that the HTC One Mini comes on the market, because he brings a lot of HTC’s premium features to a smaller enclosure. What is really interesting here is that with the advent of the Mini One we see the clash of the titans that was between the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One.

a repeat

Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy S4 Mini, which contains too many senior positions in a shrunken body. The S4 Mini also uses a slower dual-core Snapdragon processor 400, but at 1.7GHz instead of 1.4GHz with the HTC One Mini. The S4 Mini with 1.5GB ramgeheugen also more than the HTC One Mini

As it stands now, the HTC One Mini phones that get by August the world will be. The device will cost 499 euros, significantly less than the 699 euro price of the HTC One – though probably by then absorbing real retail price of the One or lower

.

HTC One mini available in the Netherlands in September - Bright

The high-end HTC One will be available in a version for the middle. With a slightly smaller screen, smaller price but the same quality finish.

Yet

particularly how smartphone manufacturers to developments in the market and react to one another. Following the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini now comes HTC with a mini version of its high-end smartphone. According to HTC mainly because there is space in the middle, and since not everyone wants such a large 4.7 inch screen in his pocket.

The name ‘mini’ is almost unfair. With a 4.3-inch screen, the HTC One mini really no little one, as I saw on the press conference this afternoon. You see him go then it’s a pretty tall and slim device, not unusually small, not particularly large. Put it next to your HTC One with 4.7 inch screen you will see a difference indeed. For me, a difference in favor of the One mini. With this slightly smaller, narrower screen I can with one hand easily operate the phone. In weight also saves something:. 122 versus 143 grams

The HTC One mini on top of the HTC One.

HTC One won last year many professional awards, including for its high quality design. For the mini has remained un modify the design and use is also made of aluminum. Most advantages and features of the HTC One are one-on-one adopted for the mini. The design with the slightly curved back making the unit nice in the hand and looks very thin. The speakers on the front of the unit so you can hear (Boom Sound). Your music or audio from movies better Also, the unit Blink Feed and utrapixel same camera. Small note here: the image stabilizer HTC One therein or omitted. Diversity.

HTC One mini is 15 percent smaller and – based on list prices – with a price of around 449 euros 250 euros cheaper than the HTC One. For this you do have a concession with regard to storage space (16 GB instead of 32 with the HTC One) and chip (1.4 GHz instead of 1.7 GHz). The device comes in September in the Netherlands on the market in silver and black. Keep an eye on our website for a review.

For lovers of big: in September, the HTC One in the Netherlands in a new color: red

First experience with HTC One mini - All About Phones

Suppose you are looking for a new smartphone and your budget is not enough to buy the latest top model. Yet you are looking for a device with sufficient opportunities and Android is your favorite OS. Do not forget to add to your wish list.

HTC One mini

The Taiwanese have a smaller version of their top model this week – the HTC One – shown to the world. During the Dutch introduction we got the chance to feel. The ‘mini’ to the tooth

The differences with his older and bigger brother are mainly visible on the specification list and when you put the two together. The One mini has a smaller screen (4.3 inch to 4.7 inch), a slower processor (1.4 Ghz to 1.7 Ghz), less memory (up to 16GB and 1GB RAM) and a smaller battery (up to 1800 mAh). In addition to these points were deleted some properties to the One, including the optical image stabilization in the camera, the infrared port and the NFC chip.

First experience with HTC One mini  First experience with HTC One mini

Promising

Despite the changes HTC has introduced a promising device, which fits entirely within the One-family. The device has the same distinctive design features as its bigger brother. The Mini One is 15 percent smaller and has the same aluminum casing as the One and the same high quality build quality. Speakers are placed on two sides of the screen that the excellent Beats Audio Boom Sound fired on us. The edges are not made in polished metal, but with a cheaper material called polycarbonate.

First experience with HTC One mini

The compact form factor allows for comfortable operation in your hand. The unit can be operated at any time. With one hand or thumb The Super LCD2 touch screen includes an image display corresponding to the One. The pictures are displayed in the right way and not in direct sunlight we already had too much trouble with reading the information. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3.

In the Android interface immediately noticed the resemblance to the HTC One. 5 The HTC Sense interface is completely copied from the One. Parts as Blink Feed the dedicated car interface, and the beautiful weather animations are present. In Android device Despite the slower processor, there was no question of delay in the menu. The smooth operation suited us very well.

The HTC One mini is an excellent option for those who are looking for an Android smartphone with a simple interface, high specification and a lower price tag. The term ‘mini’ we do n ot find really fit the device. Although the unit more compact and lighter, the smartphone is absolutely no ‘little one’.

Competition

The main competitor in the middle is the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini. The device was announced a few weeks ago and is the benchmark for HTC when it comes to premium features in a smaller package. The S4 mini has a faster 1.7 Ghz processor and more RAM memory, namely 1.5GB.

As for the price evade both coincide. The S4 mini is currently at an average price of 450 euros in the Dutch shops. The HTC One mini has a retail price of 449 euros. Expected to launch sales go towards the 400.

Availability

The HTC One mini is from September in Dutch shops and webshops. The smartphone is available in both black (Stealth Black) and in silver (Glacial Silver) available. HTC provides a range of accessories for the device, including the two different cases that you see below in the pictures.

First experience with HTC One mini

Hands-on with the HTC One mini - GSMpedia.nl

Last Thursday we were allowed to be present at the Dutch launch of the HTC One mini. The device was created by Mark Moons, Regional Manager Western Europe at HTC presented the small version of the HTC One in the Eye Museum in Amsterdam. We could just test the unit. Immediately after the presentation

The purpose of HTC is to reach not want to pay for a smartphone, the prize is a target but a “premium” device will. The HTC One mini should go achieve this goal. He has a good set of specifications and a great look. The recommended retail price is € 449, – so it is not that bad

.

First impressions and hands-on.

When I had the phone for the first time in my hands I was definitely a premium feel. He feels sturdy and has a stylish look. Of course you feel the difference with the flagship, but the difference is larger competing brands. The HTC One mini certainly does not feel like a cheap device.

As mentioned

is no arguing about taste. I liked the look of the HTC One already very successful and the HTC One mini is successful again. I am a supporter of the aluminum look, but it also comes in black to the Netherlands. From September he should be in the store!

HTC Glamor Red One available from September - All About Phones

After the official launch of the HTC One red in England is now the turn Netherlands. The Taiwanese manufacturer has announced that the HTC Glamor Red One is in Dutch stores from September.
