This week we are featuring our latest product review, the HTC Snap.
Overall, we were blown away by the design and general usability of the device.

Design
We've been evaluating Snap for awhile now and we were impressed by the design and general usability of the device, but a longer play has led us to feel slightly less enthusiastic.
The screen looks small in comparison to the keyboard and there is a lack of personality to the entire look.
Don’t get us wrong, this smartphone is a smart looking device, and is definitely made for business.
The materials used and the colours for the keys, metal middle section and back are perfectly in tune with each other and this makes for a pleasing to the eye device.
In fact, HTC thinks e-mail is so important it has created a new feature called Inner Circle that prioritizes your e-mails based on your preferences.
By pressing the dedicated Inner Circle button, the HTC Snap will bring e-mails from a preselected group of people to the top of your in-box so you can read and reply to them immediately.
Corresponding to this is fast, accurate and comfortable on the specially designed full 4 row QWERTY keyboard.
This allows your fingers to slide smoothly over the large doomed keys which are also raised to help you speed up typing and minimize errors.
This enjoyable typing experience is further complemented by intuitive track ball which provides for quick and easy navigation.
The HTC Snap offers Microsoft Direct Push Technology for real time e-mail delivery and automatic synchronization with your Outlook calendar, tasks, and contacts via Exchange Server as well as support for POP3 and IMAP e-mail accounts.
The smartphone’s full QWERTY keyboard also features “extra large domed keys” to provide for a better typing experience.
Moving beyond messaging, the Snap runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 and comes with integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0, GPS, 256MB ROM/192MB RAM, a microSD/SDHC expansion slot, and 2-megapixel camera/camcorder.
The smartphone measures 4.5 inches tall by 2.4 inches wide by 0.4 inch deep and has a 2.4-inch QVGA nontouch display.
