HTC One Mini 2 (Remix) Passes Through FCC For Verizon

The HTC One Mini 2, also known as the HTC One Remix, is chugging along on its way to Verizon customers, as Android-Headlines reports that their source has confirmed the device has passed through the FCC database.

The alleged Big Red carrier's device shows Verizon bands 4 and 13, along with CDMA BC0 and BC1 support. The publication adds that a search of the SKU: HTC6515LVW, does indeed confirm it's a One Mini 2 variant.

Verizon has yet to confirm or deny they will be offering the M8's mini companion.

UK's Phones 4U, meanwhile, is offering up a pair of customized Adidas trainers up for free to UK consumers who buy either the HTC One M8 or Mini 2, CNET reports. Options available include the Adidas Mi Duramo 6, the Mi Element Voyager or the Mi F10 FG shoes, with personalization allowing customers to basically design everything on the shoe.

The deal will be offered up until July 31.

The HTC One Mini 2 features a 4.5-inch display (720p resolution), a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor, a 13-megapixel main camera and 5-megapixel front-facing camera, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage and a microSD slot to add up to an additional 128GB of storage.
