The HTC Snap has been in stores since the beginning of June, but I wanted to wait until I got my hands on one to give you a run down on its features. At first glance, the HTC Snap has a BlackBerry look to it, more so a BlackBerry Bold than a BlackBerry Curve . . . but when you pick it up, you can definitely tell it isn't a BlackBerry.
If you're a Windows Mobile fan, this bad boy runs Win Mo 6.1, so you can easily sync up your contacts, calendar, and email. And with the one touch access keys, you can get to your camera, messages, and the Internet quickly and effortlessly. Other useful features include a two megapixel camera, a microSD card slot for additional storage, and GPS functionality. I also want to point out that it offers a full QWERTY keyboard with keys that are a tad on the bigger side for those who find BlackBerry's to be difficult to type on.
Thumbs down goes to the fact that it doesn't have WiFi or a regular headphone jack.
You can currently pick one up from Sprint for $150 (give or take your contract situation), or if you're with T-Mobile or Verizon, have a peek at the T-Mobile Dash 3G or the Verizon HTC Ozone, which are basically the same device as the Snap.

thanks, geek! you've been showing us different phone lately. keep it up!
1i'm weary of getting the newer version of the htc dash cause i currently have the older generation and after 9 months it's starting to do annoying things like shutting down on its own even when it says i have 75% battery life. Other than that I really liked that it had wi-fi and overall was a good 1st smartphone
2Verizon's HTC Ozone does have WiFi.
3Deeann your battery is end of life, you need a new one, try seeing if they will give you a new one since it is so new. Same thing happened to me. The new version has a much larger battery.
4I don't know about the Snap, but I'm surprised they don't have the T-mobile Dash 3g up. It's a lot nicer than this version.
