HTC Snap Smartphone
The HTC Snap is an incredibly versatile phone, which considering its thickness is something of a marvel. They managed to get a full QWERTY keyboard onto the handset and the Snap also comes with Wi-Fi, GPS and HSPDA as well.
The keypad has nicely raised keys, which are really responsive and make texting or emailing a breeze. It operates in a similar fashion to the BlackBerry and pushes emails making accessing accounts convenient. A useful feature is the “inner circle” where you can group together important contacts and access all their emails at once.
HTC has made using the Windows mobile system a success by keeping it simple, doing away with the fiddly touch screen, and making the system actually work.
Along with its superb keyboard the Snap has a fairly good 2-megapixel camera, with video facility, an audio player that supports all the major formats and a pretty decent battery life. There is no flash or auto-focus with the camera and it does not come with FM radio, but its connectivity is good with Bluetooth, mini USB and a 192MB memory.
There is the perennial complaint about leaving out the 3.5mm headphone jack, which is directed at many phone manufacturers, but on the whole the Snap is an excellent mobile. This is primarily a business, emailing phone and not a touch screen with multimedia mobile cinema, so if you are looking for a good phone to keep you in touch with the office this is the one.
