HTC Snap Review
03 July 2009
| Avg user rating:
The HTC Snap is reminiscent of the BlackBerry Bold, with a spacious QWERTY keyboard that has a rather fetching bronze tint.
The relatively small 2.4-inch screen hinders the internet experience, but navigating with the track ball posed few problems. Syncing with email accounts such as Outlook and Hotmail was also simple to do.
If you’re not a fan of touch-screens then the QWERTY keypad will appeal, but the main attraction of the Snap is the ‘Inner Circle’ feature. Select your most important contacts and one press of the green button will bring up all their emails. Genius.
HSDPA and Wi-Fi ensure speedy internet browsing but the camera performed poorly, with just two megapixels and no flash – this was always going to be the case.
Battery life is good.
The Inner Circle feature is genuinely helpful, but as smartphones go, there are better-equipped models on the market.
Pros: ‘Inner Circle’ is a great addition that enables you to prioritise your emails.
Cons: The screen is too small for the web browsing and navigating experience to be truly enjoyable.

Verdict: A competent smartphone that may ultimately be eclipsed by phones sporting a little bit more razzmatazz.
