HTC One Mini 2 - Sim Free Smartphone - Grey

Product Information

Information about the process technology used in manufacturing the chip. The value in nanometers represents half the distance between elements that make up the CPU. The One Mini 2’s biggest compromise is its internal hardware. While its quad-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor is by no means slow, the Snapdragon 400 is also used in the considerably cheaper Motorola Moto G. Admittedly, the One Mini 2 was slightly faster in the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark, completing it in 1,185ms compared to the Moto G’s 1,410ms. Multi-tasking also wasn't an issue, and I was able to have several demanding applications open at the same time and skip between them without issue. Display The display of a mobile device is characterized by its technology, resolution, pixel density, diagonal length, color depth, etc. Type/technology stand-by time is the longest time a battery charge will last, if the device is not used but is constantly connected to the 2G cellular network.

stand-by time is the longest time a battery charge will last, if the device is not used but is constantly connected to the 3G mobile network. Information about additional software and hardware features of the rear camera which improve its overall performance. RAM (Random-Access Memory) is used by the operating system and all installed applications. Data in the RAM is lost after the device is turned off or restarted.

HTC's premium design arrives in a smaller suit

Estimated volume of the device, calculated from the dimensions provided by the manufacturer. Applies for devices in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped.

It's also worth noting that the HTC Desire 816, a handset which will slide in below the One Mini 2, sports a punchier 1.6GHz quad-core processor and a Geekbench 3 average of 1463. There’s very little difference between the One Mini 2’s panel compared to the 720p one on the Moto G and it even uses the same toughened Gorilla Glass 3 to add a layer of protection and deliver the impressive viewing angles. The pixel count is pretty much on par with the One Mini 2, offering 326 ppi against the Moto G’s 329ppi.

The L2 (level 2) cache memory is slower than L1, but has a larger capacity, instead, which allows it to cache more data. Just like L1, it is much faster than the system memory (RAM). If the CPU does not find the data needed in L2, it proceeds to look for them in the L3 cache memory (if there is such) or in the RAM. Then again, with KitKat right out of the box, the Snapdragon 400 will probably do just fine. Plus, the One mini 2 has something the former flagship and its compact version don't - a memory card slot. The BoomSound stereo speakers on the front are a definite asset too. And the looks and build are something you just can't take away. Information about the height, i.e. the vertical side of the device when it is used in its standard orientation. CPU is the Central Processing Unit or the processor of a mobile device. Its main function is to interpret and execute instructions contained in software applications.
