The BenQ-Siemens E81 is aimed at individuals wanting UMTS 3G data connectivity in a small package, and certainly delivers a nice combination of form and function. This mid-range handset not only looks good, but also delivers a specification list beyond what would be expected from such a small handset.

Measuring in at 99.8mm x 46.7mm x 16.7mm (3.93" x 1.84" x 0.65"), the BenQ-Siemens E81 is definitely not the smallest handset in the world, but compared to most other 3G handsets, it is very compact. Limited video conferencing functionality is available, due to the handset featuring only a rearward-facing 1.3 megapixel camera, but a 1.8" 262k color TFT display with a 176x220 pixel resolution is included to clearly see the other party. Storage capacity of the glossy coated BenQ-Siemens E81 can be expanded with microSD cards, and Bluetooth and USB connectivity are available for transferring files on to and off the device.

The attractive BenQ-Siemens E81 will be available in Europe come September 2006, and in Asia starting October.
