BenQ-Siemens EF81 Review

The BenQ-Siemens' EF81 clamshell tri-band GSM/3G phone has been reviewed by Sandra Vogel over at Trusted Reviews. 'Design-wise the EF81 is a little blocky for my taste, but the flip format means it is small for the pocket at 94mm tall, 51mm wide and 15.9mm deep. It also weighs an acceptable 110g. If you are immediately thinking of it as a possible rival to Motorola’s V3x then a quick specs comparison in this department reveals that this is a smaller and lighter handset: the V3x’s dimensions are 99mm x 53mm x 20mm and 130g.

The outer display measures 1.3in diagonal and unusually offers a plentiful 262,000 colours in its 120 x 160 pixels. Compared to some others it is stunning. Beneath it are three buttons – a long rocker and two shorter buttons. Between them they allow you to use the camera for shooting stills and video, play music and take voice calls in handsfree mode. The rightmost of them allows you to lock and unlock all the front buttons. The loudspeaker is disguised in two long horizontal grilles towards the bottom of the front fascia.'
