New Delhi, October 4, 2007:
BenQ, a leading player in digital networks announced the launch of its
new, stylish BenQ-Siemens EF51 mobile phone. Crafted specially for musicaholics,
the new BenQ-Siemens EF51 adds convenience to your music, bringing all
your favorite songs at your fingertips. The EF51 is a technological wonder
with features superior to any other music phone.
The EF51's sleek and compact
form is styled just like your trendy MP3 player. You'll be amazed at how
easy it is to operate your music, thanks to the dedicated MP3 controller
keys located on its shiny Emusic. Play all music and any music,
and download any format you want, because the EF51 supports almost all
mainstream audio formats (WMA/ MP3/ AAC/ AAC+). The phone even lets you
transfer Windows Media Player songs from your PC to your phone directly
and download music from online music stores all over the world. Another
tempting audio feature of this technological delight, that will further
tinkle your musical taste buds, is its 20 pre-set FM channel function
that lets you store all your favorite FM stations. Also, the EF51 allows
you to 'record' songs playing on the radio!
The EF51 has a 20 MB built-in
memory and a MiniSD TM card slot for memory expandability. The phone has
a unique 'Speech-to-Music' feature that recognizes your voice and plays
the requested track, so you just have to say the song title and
the EF51 will play it automatically. Enjoy this high-tech audio device's
6-Band EQ modes and 3D surround stereo sound via its speakers or the high
quality stereo earphones or groove wirelessly with the A2DP Bluetooth stereo
headset. The EF51 is bundled with a free 128 MB SD Card and is priced
at Rs. 6,300/-. |
In addition to being a musical
feature-house, the EF51 also gives you a host of camera features. Apart
from a 1.3 Megapixel camera, it gives you fun features like special color
adjustments, digital zoom, multi-shot, self-portrait and more to add drama
to real life. Share those whacky photos with friends with Bluetooth connectivity,
or set them as Photo Caller-IDs to make your incoming calls more interesting.
Adds, Ish Bawa, Marcom Head,
BenQ India, "Even though mobile phones are fast transforming into music
devices, the sound quality still leaves a lot to be desired. The music
player in the EF51 has the functionality and sound quality equivalent to
that of any stand-alone music device. Therefore, we see a lot of potential
for The EF51 in the music phone segment. "
