Samsung Galaxy S 4 mini Vs HTC One Mini is the next big comparison between devices from the two OEMs. There seems to be a 'Mini war' of sought going on between smartphone companies. While, the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini is yet to hit the market, HTC has also annoumced the launch of HTC One mini .

    2. Samsung has given the Galaxy S4 Mini a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 960 X 540 pixels and a pixel density of 256ppi. Images are rich and sharp on the handset but outdoor use is not the best in the business.
    HTC One Mini is speculated to sport a 4.3-inch display as well, but one that packs in a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and a pixel density of 342ppi.
    With its high-end display, the HTC One Mini wins.

  2. Processor

    3. A dual-core 1.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 Krait chipset powers the Galaxy S4 Mini along with an Adreno 305 GPU. The handset handles multi-tasking with ease, including all the high-end apps that Android Jelly Bean throws at it.
    HTC One Mini will have 1.4GHz dual-core CPU and Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 widely expected.

  3. Camera

    4. Samsung Galaxy S 4 mini packs an eight-megapixel main camera while the HTC One Mini is rumored to have the same four-megapixel “Ultrapixel” camera found on the HTC One (HTC Zoe).

  4. User Interface

    5. S 4 mini supports Touchwiz UI whereas HTC One mini supports Sense5 UI.
