LimeSDR, BladeRF, AirSpy... The first two are capable of emulating base stations - quite incredible. AirSpy is RX only but has incredible bandwidth and a very clean signal

Yeah, but the Mini has half the sample rate AND half the channels. That's a quarter of the capability for half the price.

I'm also kind of salty that they dropped the MicroUSB variant of the full-size model. The Mini makes sense to have it a "stick" format, the full one does not. The full one having an A connector on it has been nonsense from day one.

I still will probably end up buying one because they're still the best bang for the buck.
