HTC Snap: Ease your business communication

There is something about the HTC Snap™ that will make you go ‘va va voom’. Sleek lines and curvaceous rounded edges mark this debutant smartphone from HTC with a QWERTY keypad.

The handset is touted to be what users really need: Information segregation and making certain that they are not overwhelmed by mails they don’t need. Sounds really innovative and this is how it works!

HTC’s innovative Inner Circle feature allows HTC Snap users to press a dedicated Inner Circle key to bring emails from a preselected group of people to the top of their inbox, enabling important messages to be acted upon immediately.

“Recognizing that people are being overwhelmed by an avalanche of email, the HTC Snap introduces Inner Circle, an HTC innovation that makes it easy for people to prioritize messages from the most important people in their lives at the press of a button,” said John Wang, Chief Marketing Officer, HTC Corporation. “The HTC Snap represents the latest step in HTC’s mission to create a range of innovative smartphones, each with specific benefits designed to both surprise and delight our customers.” Continue reading “HTC Snap: Ease your business communication”
