HTC HD mini Proves Little Is Not Too Late

At Mobile World Congress today, HTC announced a smaller sibling for their flagship HD2 Windows Phone. The new HTC HD mini will use Windows Mobile 6.5.3 with HTC's Sense interface concept. With Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 Series still a long ways off, the HTC HD mini, with its 3.2" capacitive screen, should benefit from the enhancements in the latest Windows Mobile release, as the new Windows Phone version 6.5.3 brings enhanced support for capacitive touchscreens. The HTC HD mini features multi-touch gesture support, so users can pinch and zoom in and out of Web pages and photos. The phone is much smaller than the current HTC HD2, and with its HVGA screen resolution, the HD moniker might be questionable. The HD mini will also run on a slower processor than the 1 GHz HD2. Still, the phone will get one of the most unique features on the HTC HD2, the ability to share a wireless connection with other devices over Wi-Fi. The HTC HD mini also uses a 5-megapixel camera around back, and HTC offers this phone as an affordable alternative to the pricier big screen device. The HTC HD mini will be available to European and Asian customers in April. Pricing details have yet to be announced.
