BenQ Siemens to Release Siemens S81 Cell Phone February 15th, 2006
Siemens
is trying to strengthen marketshare in 3G cell phones
by releasing yet another ultra-slim and stylish S81 model
to the market. The BenQ Siemens S81 model comes at only
13mm thick and weighs only 99 grams.
Even though the phone is so slim, it
has tons of sophisticated features such as a 3.2 megapixel
digital camera (which is pretty impressive considering
most other Motorola and Nokia phones come at 2.0 megapixels).
The digital camera has some advanced features such as
auto focus, auto zoom and HSDPA.
The handset has TFT display screen boasting
262k colors and measuring 240 by 320 pixels. Also, the
siemens s81 model has a built in MP3 player with features
such as virtual surround sound and Bluetooth supported
remote control.
What are some of the cool things you
can do with this phone? Well, you can download and view
tons of streaming 3GP videos in H.264 formats. Check the
left sidebar for the many funny 3GP videos you can download
from this website.
The Siemens s81 has 30mb of memory and
additional memory can be added via a microSD card expansion.
This memory should be enough to store tons of multimedia
content such as ringtones, wallpapers, screensavers and
more. The phone also has capability of streaming audio
and MP3 playback (supported by Bluetooth). Siemens has
also integrated a unique yet strange feature into the
audio playback. Just like voice dialling, users an speak
out the name of a song loud and the phone will recognize
the song, and play it back! Cool stuff eh!?
Some of the audio and video streaming
formats that can be played include FM radio, P3, WMA,
AAC and AAC+. Whilst playing a song, the option of viewing
lyrics will also be available. The phone is expected to
be available by the 2nd quarter of 2006.
