HTC One Remix (One mini 2) launches at Verizon on July 24, costs as much as the One M8

Verizon today finally announced the HTC One Remix, a smartphone that first showed up back in May.

The One Remix is nothing more than a renamed HTC One mini 2, so it’s targeted at users who may want some of the features of the One M8 flagship, but in a more compact package.

Sporting a 4.5-inch display with 720 x 1,280 pixels, the HTC One Remix is indeed smaller than the 5-inch One M8. However, it’s significantly larger than other mini smartphones, and that’s because it has HTC’s typical BoomSound dual speakers on the front. Other features include a 13MP rear camera, 5MP front-facing camera for high-res selfies, quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of expandable storage space, and a 2,100 mAh battery. Android KitKat and Sense 6.0 UI are on board.

Verizon will sell the One Remix starting tomorrow, July 24 (just as expected). The smartphone will cost $99.99 on contract. Ironically, that’s also the current price of the HTC One M8.
