Nokia E63 Blue vs HTC Snap: A predicament of will

By: Adam Jaylin | Posted: 30th July 2009

While the Nokia E63 Blue is a phased down version of the existing Nokia E71, with HTC Snap, HTC has come out with its own version of Smartphone which is not solely intended for the business people but focuses to attract first time users as well. Both the devices are 3G enhanced smartphones with precisely crafted features and a Nokia E63 vs HTC Snap situation is presently brewing hot in the market.

Although both the Nokia E63 Blue and the HTC Snap have comparable screen sizes, the former has a better colour resolution at 16M colours than the latter, which has only 65K colours. Nokia also says that the E63 comes with dual home screens so that it minimizes any confusion between the business associates and the personal ones. The Snap model has a design which looks inspired by the BlackBerry but the Trackball navigation key comes very handy and looks innovative. This device also features a new application called the InnerCircle which sorts mails and sends them in order of a priority list. The E63 Blue has a more rugged look and looks outrageous while the Snap has cleaner looks and is slightly slimmer. A comprehensive Nokia E63 Blue vs HTC Snap comparison is deemed handy to get a better understanding of the two devices.

A higher class 32 GPRS system in the E63 ensures doubler speed at 100Kbps and the Symbian OS 9.2, Series 60 v3.1 UI operating system does better than the Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 available in the Snap. A higher class 32 EDGE also adds more edge. One also gets more optional video players, playing WMV /RV /MP4 /3GP formats. But Nokia should have seriously considered the non-inclusion of GPS and HSDPA capability which are now being made available even in the ordinary models. One reason could be that they are looking at a market that shows restraint in downloading extraneous data but it does not help much as gradually the need for high speed accessibility is bringing down the charges for the services.

The Snap has both HSDPA and GPS capability with A-GPS support. Nokia's Ovi service does compensate in this regard which has now enhanced file sharing capabilities. The 'Push to Talk' feature which has found wide acceptance in many countries including the U.S., can be considered a very innovative feature that has been included in the E63 though. Both the Nokia E63 and the HTC Snap have comparable power sources with similar talk and standby times. The Snap does have a few extra applications like the HSDPA and USB but the E63 is a much faster and evolved device. Both the models are paired in a very competitive market presently in the grip of a Nokia E63 vs HTC Snap situation with the Snap being priced at a moderately higher price.
