BenQ E72

Europe : Incredibly thin at a little over 1cm front-to-back, the E72 puts all the functionality of an advanced smartphone in an amazingly compact device whose looks don’t stint on style. With design touches like indicator lights that gently pulse beneath a mirrored surface and a striking colored band that provides easy access to key functions, this is a smartphone whose looks are as smart as the technology gracefully wrapped inside.

The E72 puts five instant messaging networks—AOL, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ and Google Talk—together on a single platform, letting you have multi-party chats over one or more networks. You can also take advantage of handy e-mail features, such as the ability to easily record and send audio, as well as push mail, which automatically downloads and alerts you to new e-mail messages. Best of all, all these communications options, plus free VoIP calls, are available over the E72’s high-speed WiFi connections.

With the E72, you can access a full range of online information right on your phone. Subscribe to RSS feeds on the E72, so you can stay updated with the newest information posted on blogs and other websites that matter to you. You can even download your favorite podcasts straight to the E72 and listen to them at your leisure. Real-time information such as weather and currency rates is ready for you to view anytime and anyplace.

The E72 makes using SMS/MMS and e-mail simple, with dedicated buttons on the side along an eye-catching colored strip, sparing you the hassle of navigating multiple navigation screens just to read or compose a message. The E72 also features easy-to-use voice commands and audio recording, giving you more tools to ease your communications. Another handy feature is ability to pick screen wallpapers by simply pressing and holding the volume button.

The E72 gives you the power and familiar interface of Windows. Its Windows Mobile 6 Standard environment gives you access to your PC’s Outlook e-mail and calendars, with Microsoft ActiveSync keeping this important data, plus your contacts, in sync so you can access identical up-to-date information on both your PC and phone.

With the E72, you have an array of delightful multimedia options right on your phone. You can enjoy streamed video and other online entertainment thanks to its E72’s WiFi connectivity. For photo fun, use the built-in camera, which can output images up to two megapixels, as well as capture and play back video in the popular MP4 and 3GP formats. When you’re in the mood for music, the E72 serves as an easy-to-use MP3 player, with support for WAV and WMA audio, in addition to MP3. To store all the music, video, and photos you want to indulge in wherever you go, there’s a microSD™ slot that supports card capacities up to 2GB.
