It has a "rugged" look due to the four corners of its back having metal screws. Also, its 256MB internal memory is not large enough to carry enough multimedia files. This will prompt you to buy a Micro SD card to satisfy your need for more storage.

Although it runs on Qualcomm 600MHz processor, it still is far slower compared to other mobile phones that have a faster processor like the 1GHz Snapdragon in the HD2. As for the latest Windows 7 that is buzzing lately, HTC would not be able to upgrade HTC HD mini's Windows 6.5.3 to Windows 7 because the 480 x 800 pixels resolution is not compatible to run on the OS. Its camera also has its shortcomings. It has no flash and digital zoom to better capture photos and videos.
