Prolific leaker, evleaks, is often quite straightforward in his Twitter leaks, and although his latest tweet is decidedly cryptic, it seems to nevertheless confirm the existence of a HTC M8 Mini:

I think it’s safe to assume that the first four charaters before the device names are some kind of internal model number reference, but it’s definitely the first time that we’ve heard of a smaller HTC M8 device been mentioned. HTC attempted a similar feat last year with the HTC One Mini, but with disappointing hardware and an inflated price-tag, the One Mini failed to capitalize on the same hype created by its bigger brother, the HTC One.
One popular  theory is that the HTC M8 Mini will be released alongside the full-sized iteration of the HTC M8, which is expected to be soon, if not at MWC 2014 this month, while other suggest that the M8 Mini will be released shortly after the M8’s announcement. What do you think HTC is planning to do with the HTC M8 Mini? Do you think they should do something differently compared to last year’s strategy with the HTC One Mini? Let us know your 2 cents in the comments below.
