Am using the Snap S521 now.

I love the speedy OS, and the presence of the trackball (BlackBerry style) is quite welcomed compared to the normal D-Pad in other phones. The hardware QWERTY keypads are one of the nicest I've used so far, being well spaced, and also it protrudes to the right angle so much so that typing is, well as the name suggests, a snap! tongue.gif The back of the phone is the rubbery kind of material, makes it less prone to scratches, and also is very nice to hold on the hand. The slimness of the phone, as 1 user mentioned here, also makes the Snap very pocket-able.

Screen size however, is pretty small, and if you're a heavy user of Office apps, I think you'll find the small screen quite irritating.

Battery life is good. Being a heavy user, I charge my phones on a daily basis. But with the Snap, I find I can charge it once every 2 days. Not bad at all I reckon. smile.gif

Feel free to ask any questions on the Snap and I'll try my very best to answer.

Cheers.

1 year from SiS SG.

So M'sia SiS is offering 2 years warranty?

But yeah I agree on the small screen, enough for text and calls only.

Browsing is not too good, as screen's kinda small, especially if you're used to the likes of iPhone or phones like the Touch HD, or Omnia II.

OooOOo yes, it is some recent promotion of M'sia SiS, should be still on nw biggrin.gif

the snap's browsing is definitely nt comparable to the likes of the iPhone and the HD and yes even the Omnia II simply because of its screen size
but again as said, user preference.. if u can live with it its fine tongue.gif
depends on what you install?
as of now, mine is all smooth sailing...
i haven installed anything yet, jz music and pics smile.gif

Same here. Nothing installed just some pics, contacts, calendar entries, notes, and lastly, some music.

Navigation is extremely fast. tongue.gif
