A 24-carat gold version of the HTC's flagship smartphone is already up for grabs, but as it seems, we might soon see its Mini variant following the same path. Here are the first photos of the HTC One Mini in gold.

These were sent to us by an anonymous tipster, but we are quite certain that this Gold version of the HTC One mini is a custom gold plated edition, made by a third-party jeweler, and HTC won't be offering it officially.

Apple's gold color variant of the iPhone 5s made a real splash and we are hearing rumors that HTC will following down the same route to liven up the HTC One design.

Unfortunately, there is no word on the pricing and the availability of this gold HTC One Mini.

Thanks to our anonymous tipster for sending this in!
