http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/07/htconemini-1374821754.jpgJust weeks after we put the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini through its paces, we’re looking at the HTC One mini, another attempt to shrink a flagship down into a smaller (and cheaper) package. As you’d expect, the 4.3-inch mini looks much like the full-sized version, and that goes for both the hardware and software. In addition to its similar-looking aluminum-and-plastic frame you’ll find both a 4-megapixel Ultrapixel camera sensor and HTC’s Sense 5 UI, meaning automatic video highlights, Zoe and BlinkFeed all make an appearance here as well. There are, however, a few hardware drawbacks compared to the original, with the IR blaster, optical image stabilization on the camera and NFC stripped out for space- and cost-saving reasons. Can HTC launch a mid-range phone that won’t get lost between similarly priced offerings and last year’s discounted flagships? We’ll try to reason that out after the break.Gallery: HTC One mini review
