Feature:
has all the features of a regular strat.
Quality:
Hey it is a $100 guitar for goodness sake! So don't expect a high quality instrument or you will be disappointed. But for $100 this is a great freaking guitar. Perfect for kids or beginners with smaller fingers.
Value:
For $100 you cannot miss with this guitar
Desirability:
This guitar looks like a real strat and actually is a real strat, just smaller.
Sound:
I have not played it through an amp.
Ease of Use:
guitar is easy to play after you get used to the smaller frett spacing and the strings are a little closer together. This guitar is really made for smaller hands, i.e. children, but it is not a toy. So if you have big fingers you may have trouble playing this guitar. For adults, this is a good guitar to fool around with watching tv, sitting at your desk at work, or riding in a car. Don't buy this to be your main rig unless you are a child or a beginner.
Support:
ZZ is always there for you.
Overall:
I am a stock trader and sit at my desk during the day watching the market and playing this guitar (stress reliever). I don't have to worry about banging it on the desk or someone stealing it. I play it without an amp and it sounds OK by itself.

Feature:
The Mini is s straight-up, no frills axe. Hardtail, three cheap single-coils. And a whole lot of portability.
Quality:
Again, quality must be viewed in the context of cheap guitars. In addition to some real guitars of substantial cost and performance potential, I also own a Lotus "Strat knock-off" that was made somewhere "East of Eden". I've now equipped the Lotus with a full set of Seymour-Duncans...but it still leaves a little something to be desired. The Squier Mini displays much better workmanship: a more nicely finished neck, parts that actually fit the space they're bolted onto, etc. I think I'll be transferring the Seymour Duncans from the Lotus to the Mini in the near future and then giving the Lotus to some deserving kid in the neighborhood to practice chords with.
Value:
An excellent travel guitar for $99. This is an outrageously cool value!
Desirability:
What could be more sexy than the "Mini Me" of guitars. Plug it in and kick out the jams.
Sound:
The sound must be considered in the context of "travel guitars". It sounds almost like a "real" Strat, but packs much more easily!
Support:
When you do your own tech work, who needs support?
Overall:
Given the niche it fills in my collection, I suspect the Mini will remain there until I move on to other gigs and someone inherits it (laughter of the Immortals).
