I don’t know if the phone is to become available sometime in the future, but what’s for sure is that it has a nickname, especially conceived for such an event. Called BenQ Royal, the candybar is said to be “a smart phone with powerful functions including a personalized interface and internet live messenger to make both mobility and communication easier”.

When it comes to the features this new BenQ phone comes equipped with, they include a color display, a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and a sensor area which is placed below the LCD screen. It seems that this area is touch-sensitive and allows users to turn the pages of all sorts of e-books and to browse the photo and music files much easier.

The bad thing is that we don’t have, at least not for the moment, other details at our disposal, concerning the features of this cell phone. In the given context, knowing when the Royal is expected to become available and under which price, is something like a dream. This is why we should just wait and see.

It’s a flip-phone with external display that just vanishes in standby mode until a new upcoming call or message arrives, music player, dedicated music keys, and the capability to play your favorite songs while you compose a cool text message.

It allows you to record videos or playback clips in the H.263 format, or use the camera as a webcam together with the Instant Messaging feature on your PC.
GPRS with WAP offers access to the Internet on the cell phone at speeds of around 60 kbit/s.

The 750 mAh Li-Ion Battery keeps the cell phone operating for up to 3.5 hours in talking mode or 150 hours in standby, enough time to browse through the menus and read things on the 1.8-inch internal TFT LCD display with 262k color capability and a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels.

The T60 will ne FNC-enabled like the T80, and will come with the rest of standard features equipping any other new phone model on the market.

“BenQ understands that consumers have increasingly sophisticated technology needs and we strive to fulfill them,” says Dr. James Lee, Associate Vice President, Mobile Product Management Center, BenQ. “As the first local mobile phone manufacturer to participate in the Proximity Mobile Transaction Service Alliance (PMTSA), driven by the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) Taiwan, we have continuously sought partners in other industries to co-develop NFC-compatible devices. We hope to extend the uses of NFC technology in more devices to bring convenience to our consumers.”

It is the world’s first Windows Mobile 6-based Smartphone NFC-enabled and offers a user experience similar with that of a personal computer, and dual storage options for the NFC data which allows users to store transactions and security information on a microSD card or directly on the SIM.

Its Combi SIM card type developed by Chunghwa Telecom is the first SIM card that offers secure e-wallet services with massive storage for transaction recordings.
On the other hand, BenQ T80 has Flash user interface and a 2.2-inch large display integrating a 3MP camera.

With this model you can time automatic wallpaper changes and as it is Digital Living Network Alliance-compliant you can integrate it into all DLNA home entertainment systems in order to use it as a remote control for your home equipment.

BenQ will soon make public additional information regarding the price and availability of this mobile phone.

During the awards ceremony at iF Design Award China, BenQ was one of the winners, and it was considered best fit for the Entertainment and Communication category.

As you probably know, this event is sponsored by International Forum Design Hanover from Germany, and the award won by BenQ is one of the most important distinctions from the Asia-Pacific region. The members from the jury are chosen among top international designers.

Like other big companies that show their new products before launching, BenQ has presented its new mobile phone model called BenQ S7 with a modern design, with built-in GPS system, and metallic style housing.

The full specs were not revealed so we’ll have to wait a little longer for some new info and the possible price.

BenQ M7 is the latest candy bar-style mobile phone released by BenQ, a sportish model that is dust- and splash-resistant and in the same time has a water-proof film that covers vulnerable openings, a rubber cover on the USB port and a screw at the battery door.

The phone has 3G UMTS 2100 technology support, Bluetooth and tri-band GSM (GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz) allowing you to use it anywhere you are and download all that you need in a matter of minutes.
It runs on a Qualcomm 6250A processor.

Together with this mobile device you get also a built-in GPS system with A-GPS support for faster localizing even in the areas with tall buildings, providing you special features such as speedometer, compass, and route recording.
For fun and relaxation you have the MP3 player, an FM radio and maybe more important would be its 2MP camera with 1600×1200 pixels resolution, and a VGA with video telephony support with which you can capture clear photos and visualize them on the 2-inch TFT LCD screen of 262K colors.

You can communicate with friends and family through MS, MMS, EMS and e-mail, and navigate on the Internet using its xHTML browser.
For all that you download into your phone BenQ added also a microSD slot for storing up to 2GB on a memory card, because the 50MB of internal memory is not enough these days.

BenQ M7 measures 105×47.5×16.8 mm, weighting 93g, and has a 920 mAh Li-Ion battery with a talk time of up to 5 hours and 400 hours in standby.
The model’s price is still unknown.
