Your life in a snap

Johannesburg, 15 Jun 2009

Everyday the pace of life accelerates, with more things to organise and less time to do it in. We often find ourselves besieged by the sheer avalanche of e-mails we receive and frustrated by technology that complicates instead of simplifying.

In reality, most users prioritise only five or less people for overall communication purposes. The new HTC Snap, introduced to South African consumers in June '09, simplifies life by automatically filtering conversations from the most important people, making it easier and less complicated than ever to stay in contact with your “inner circle”.

By simply pressing the dedicated Inner Circle key, you activate the innovative feature, which brings messages received from a pre-selected group of people to the top of your list, so that the important messages can be dealt with immediately.

Corresponding is fast, accurate and comfortable on the specially designed full four-row qwerty keyboard. Your fingers slide smoothly over the extra-large domed keys, which are also raised to help you to speed up typing and minimise errors. This enjoyable typing experience is further complemented by the intuitive trackball, which provides for quick and easy navigation.

The ultra-thin, streamlined design is both functional and eye-catching. Not only does it mould perfectly into the palm of your hand for optimal comfort during use, but it also offers the best of both worlds - hard working and good looking.

The new HTC Snap seamlessly integrates the familiar features of Microsoft Windows and an exceptional mobile Web experience. The HTC Snap operates the flexible Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard platform, simple enough for even first-time smartphone users to master in minutes, yet powerful enough for experienced business users to remotely synchronise e-mail, calendar and contacts.

Connecting to the Web is super fast with high-speed 3G HSDPA connectivity, making it a breeze to download large files on the go, and to connect to favourite social networking Web sites.

Another practical shortcut is the Windows Live Messenger button, which will help you to stay in touch - ensuring you don't miss out on anything. At the press of a button instantly share messages between friends and family that are online.

The HTC Snap offers the useful features users need, without overwhelming them with those they don't. With instant view and one-touch access to features like e-mail and SMSes, you can quickly respond to anything that may be waiting.

At just 120g and barely half an inch thick (including the standard 1500mAh battery that delivers up to eight-and-a-half hours of talk time), the HTC Snap also includes an internal GPS antenna that is GPS and A-GPS ready, Bluetooth 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate, Wi-Fi and A2DP for wireless stereo headsets. The 2.4-inch TFT-LCD with LED back light and QVGA resolution provides a crystal clear viewing experience, while the MicroSD expansion slot caters for extended storage needs.

With the effortless elegance of the new HTC Snap, you can take charge of your life, connect to the world at super-fast speeds, prioritise those you care about, simplify your life and look good in the process.

The new HTC Snap truly is the snappy solution to your everyday challenges.
