If you liked the HTC One M8, but passed on it because it was too big, then today’s your lucky day. As it did last year, HTC has introduced a more compact, scaled-down version of its flagship device, this time called the HTC One mini 2. It has a smaller 4.5-inch, 720p display and uses a less powerful quad-core processor from Qualcomm. HTC also swapped out the main Ultrapixel Duo camera for a 13-megapixel sensor. But don’t worry, your selfies should still look good with a front-facing five-megapixel camera. The One Mini 2 will be available in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East in June. No word yet on North American availability or pricing.
