    Outdated operating system, average battery life and poor camera prevent us from recommending it

    Attractive design, good display quality and touchscreen response, can be used as a Wi-Fi router, HTC Sense UI makes Windows Mobile a lot more bearable

    It's still Windows Mobile, interface stutters at times for no apparent reason, no flash for camera, loudspeaker position, no DivX/Xvid support, poor battery life, Windows Marketplace is sad, expensive

While everyone else has given up on Windows Mobile, HTC is still striving to keep it alive with handsets such as the new HD mini. It's basically a scaled down version of the HD2, the HD mini packs in a lot of features in a smaller design. But will that be able to overcome its biggest hurdle - the outdated Windows Mobile operating system? Let's find out.

I intend to sell my 5 months old, black Nokia E71. The device is in perfectly sane condition, without any scratches and the only reason to sell, is that I am very much keen on getting an Android handset. E71 needs no introduction, it has been awarded quite a few accolades (refer wikipedia page) and is considered among the most successful business fones, this side of BB stable. Highlights: Nokia email client, lets you configure upto 10 e-mail accounts in simple 3 or 4 steps. GPS with navigation. Youtube app. Pre installed, along with lot others. The device sure looks class, with its 10mm profile and metal battery cover. Details as follows: DOP: 4th July, 2010 Purchase price: INR 12,800 Current price: a shade under that, maybe a few hundreds less. Box pack with all OEM accessories (charger, leather sling, cover, CD ROM, manual, etc) available along with original bill. Selling price: INR 10,500 (Not negotiable) 9880691326

I am really surprised to see that HTC HD mini is being reviewed here!!. Its outdated to say the least. HTC already released HD mini's android version Aria elsewhere. And with Windows phone 7 round the corner, this phone is just history!

true... this phone's so dated.... when was this launched? early this year or last year?... who knows... Anyways, the Aria- which's this same phone with Android slapped on it appears to be a much more interesting alternative. HTC listened to its customers, methinks.
