  • This set is very nice. Pic quality excellent, charge is slight low, sound is low, internet speed is so slow. But smart looking, overall a good handset.

  • Not good, do not buy it. Buy chaineese set instead of this. like maximus or sprint.

  • It's a yeoo yeoo phone!!!!!!!!!! Nice design,nice cam pictures!!! Uncommon from others.......

  • At the time of buying looked great but the color is fading within a month. Camera quality is poor(Not even equal Nokia 2.0M and a little reddish). Sound in headphone is good but in speaker it sounds like Chinese phones. Display is good.Battery charge lasts 1.5 to 2 days. Overall:Not that attractive. You may look for alternatives

  • I bought t60 on 01.10.2008 I think software of this set is so ordinary like ordinary chinese set. but I am very happy to buy this set for its small price but various opportunities.

  • BenQ T60, Disign is exillent!! but provied installation CD is too shortage of fetures and provided driver and software not up to the mark. Not getting download suppert from the website.There is no update of driver and software in the website. -From Bangladesh

  • It looks so gorgeous !

  • (Reply of Sumeen) Local distribution of Benq in Bangladesh is Siemens Bangladesh....

  • though its talk time is very low, i think i`ll buy this one. its good u c. price is also low. kiss

  • Hey there, I really like that cellphone, I was searching information about it. I'm writing an article on my blog about it.

  • Hello brother, it is not edge enabled set. So its speed might not be as ur desire. If u want more speed than obviously u should buy an edge enabled set. Eg. Nok 6300 or SE K55Oi

  • what the type of it's battery quality

  • In Bangladesh, this cell phone cost 126$.I didn't buy it but i will buy in the next month. it looks so gorgeous and its facilities are also good.

  • to people who have used this handset - does this fone have support for themes?and are they using the old benq interface here or the new hybrid "siemens benq" platform.in the older benq intrface there was only 3 predefined themes and they were crap.also u couldnt add themes.by the way,hows the display quality

  • yes it last for a long time if u are a lil careful and all.....but the keypads weird........

  • can anyone here please tell me if this phone would last long?!?!

  • Does anyone know the speed of java based applications in it? Specially Mig33 and opera mini latest versions??? I think its too slow and impossible to use mig 33 beta like benq siemens s88. Does it have a pc software to use it as a modem? What is the video recording resolution? And finally, is it like those chinease handsets?its keypad design put me in doubt. Original users please pleas comment on these questions. Thnx in advance.

  • This very nice phone is available in Bangladest @ TK.8,500/- with Data Cable & Accessories.

  • nice phone with too high price in indonesia

  • Coolest slimmest phone ever! I have had it for a couple of weeks now. Camera quality is excellent. Sound quality is good although it's inferior to walkmans. Phone doesn't freeze on u and works pretty fast. The price is unimaginable. I doubt if there is a better lookin phone at even 3 times the price

  • yeap--its a kool cell but its 2me price is littlebet high 70$ allright for affort.

  • nice phone...

  • what is the loudspeaker quality like? pls

  • so perfect. althought without 3G & HSDPA.

  • Hey guys. i think this phone is very good. from design until specification and low price with high qulity. so... get buy it now.

  • Hi everybody in this room! In India, you can get one BenQ T60 with 76$ and i think T60 is the phone for your choice. T60 is a perfect phone with useful function for a morden men with Camera 3.2 mega pix and Bluetooth 2.0 with transfer very high....

  • Hey, T60 is the most modern phone that i've been got and i like it so much. If you dont have it and you are a modern man, pls get one because i think its price is very sensible for you at $99 including 2G memory card ^^

  • BQ T60 is the phone that designed very well: slim, modern, large display and the price is very good with $85 in Shanghai.

  • When you look at disign and features of BenQ T60, you can pay US$120 to have one. but you shouldn't look at face of anything to evaluate it. When you have it in your hand, you will be regreful to pay too high price. In my opinion, BenQ T60 is only US$90.

  • Don't make comments much more because the selling price in China is US$100 with memory card 2GB. If you want to own one of Benq T60, contact with distributors of Benq Coporation.

  • I think price of 196$ is too high. If I pay 110$ for one model of mobile phone, I can have models of Nokia which contain more beautiful and smart disign and features than Benq T60. I think selling price of T60 is 90-100$. It is true!!

  • With all of the disign and features of BenQ T60, I think selling price of T60 is only US$90. This value is right because its keypad is very hard and the users have difficultty in writing massager.

  • This is a very cool cell phone.i am using this phone.it has excellent picture quality.

  • Superb design! Here in Indonesia, T60 selling price are 196$, value for money i think if we looking at the design and features. All that i need.. I'm nokia 6300 user now and planning to buy T60. Any suggest ?

  • It does have a pretty face but its just too much sensitive,,, its even forbidden to shake!!!! It's really a shame for a good looking phone like this....

  • Those of you who are looking for 3G for $142, you gotta be kidding me. This fone is hot man, has all the necessities at a bargain price. The only thing to be concerned about is whether the software has too many bugs?

  • what a thin phone!! I think this phone is a fashion phone coz, no 3G nor EDGE

  • Good features. But no Edge, no 3G. Price in Bangladesh is Tk 10490/= (US$ 150) in May 2008.

  • i want to be a distributor of benq in chennai send immediately

  • This phone win best design award. It's not a copycat. Those people who's thought it's copycat phone. There realy a stupid people.

  • its looking nice but its third class cell phone

  • Sabbir,is it a copy of nokia 6300 or nokia E51?

  • Any body told me what is the differtnce between v 1.1 & V 2.0 bluetooth? pls answear me.

  • ay im frm BD.. im looking to get thi cell but technology is too boring and i am confused about its photo resulation bcoz the camera point looks so tiny..compairing the 2mp nokia cells

  • I am confuse to buy this, design is attractive but technology is backdated(no 3g, 1.1 blue tooth, 1.2 usb ). I have to think before purchase it.

  • Today it has been released in Bangladesh. Price Tk.10,800/- USD 154/-.

  • With devices like the T60 phone pictured on the right, Taiwan-based BenQ may be onto something. At just 8.9mm it's one of the slimmest candybars available on the market. As a heavy smartphone user, I'm sad to report it's a simple feature phone that I probably won't use, like ever. However, some other people that don't want much from their handsets may find the device appealing. The 3.2 megapixel camera is on board, and so is the media player, stereo Bluetooth support, microSD slot, blacklist functionality (very cool), remote control (AVRCP) support. The QVGA screen measures at 2.2 inches and the battery provides users with up to 3 hours of talk and 200 hours of standby time. Guess they had to cut on battery life in order to keep the device super slim. Again, I like it, but I want it to run some mobile OS.

  • amazing fone, but looks somehow like the LG Shine KE770, however thinner than KE770 1mm,sgood job BenQ ;) lots of functions, but BenQ must re-done his software, so much bugs... with stainless steel, very elegant look, but without 3G, Bluetooth 2.0, this must be a mid-end fone, the price should be around @200 or less than

  • What a nice phone!!! Will it be availeble in Europe ? Seems like a fine substitute for my BenQ-Siemens S88. Probably is another is another miskate of this website, this is at least a triband phone....

  • lol, this phone looks just great, why the heck the manufacturer did not add the 3G on the phone ??? And what happened to the battery life ???

  • Great looking phone but has hardly any features..!

  • This phone looks amazing!, and doesnt fall short of features too. Lets hope it brings benq out of the ditch its in

  • goodlookin.. must be dirt cheap to survive

  • 2008 and dual band?

  • 180 h for the battery is really out of data fot it's performances

  • see they come up wit the best designs but all the phones are out dated. I wish siemens were still around, i was a big fan of them. No one can compare to theyre design seriously.

  • I Would very much like to read a review by GSMARENA on this Phone. It looks promising!

  • For how far the keypad and navigation is squashed down to the bottom end of the phone, you would have thought the screen would be huge- but it's only 2.2 inches!

  • c monnnn

  • sexy looks!!

  • whoa.. it's kinda nice... not bad... sleek.. too bad the specs kinda suck though..

  • Amazing design, u may even think about buying it until u read the specs, wtf- bluetooth 1.1, usb 1.2( does that even still exist). No camera flash. Simply not good enough.

  • Wow at last, First to post the opinion. I like the design but poor battery life.
