great phone, especially after the firmware updates. I would recommend this phone now to anyone wanting a good quality phone that can compete with the best that nokia and sony ericsson has to offer! And for the non-believers, I say PEACE !!

    Had anybody here tried to use this phone with bluetooth stereo headset? Did you manage to get stereo connection?

      the mobile hand set Benq-Siemens EF91 IS VERY GOOD SET but if you make a single change in it's opening then this set will beat tese sets
      1.N6270
      2. W800i
      3. MOTORAZER V3i
      4. samsung d500
      the change is just make it's opening like a motorazer v3i i.e it's flap will just open from one inch above from the bottom like a motorazer v3i.then i will sale many of the sets in my city.

          I have never buy any benq siemens phone before and use only se or nokia phones.

          After saw this ef81 because of its nice design and bgt it. My verdict: very disappointing camera quality and battery performance. Worst, to review the photos had to open one by one as there isn't any small photo thumbnail to see. Video calls, receiver can't hear me clearly..

          Fortunately, manage to sell it off (loss) within few days of not, I think the values will certainly drop very fast.

            The only good about this phone is the design and made of stainless steel body...

            Performance compared to nokia/Se, long way to catch up...

              I just got the EF81 for Vodafone a couple of days ago. Anybody knows how to watch Mobile TV on this phone. Thank you very much.

                I'm impressed at the battery life - I've also got a Samsung A300 which will last 2-3 days maximum so the EF81 easily beats that.

                  went back to phones 4u and said where my free mobile tv,they said call up the menu and select vodafone live then mobile tv ...............i said it aint there after playing with it for an hour they decided it wasnt there and so i would not get it .....
                  Ive seen a review with the right menu on a early ef81 but it looks like they have changed it now

                      For those who undermine this phone probably they cannot afford to buy this phone...

                      No phone is perfect but this phone near to perfect...

                          I'm puzzled why the rating so high but this phone not really good...

                          First the so called 2 mega camera is disappointing...

                          Secondly, the bettery life not lasting...

                          Thirdly, when you talked on the 3G & the caller can't hear you...

                          Regret buying this phone, somemore quite expensive...

                                Quite a nice design but not a nice performancer..

                                Camera 2 mega but good, compared to K750i.. heaven and earth..

                                When go to the picture folder, it doesn't show all the pic only the words on the size of the pictures. Need to open one by one & close one by one in order to view all the photos.

                                Battery life very disappointing, when I bgt, it printed on the box made in Germany and I thought suppose to be of high quality..

                                The only good is the sound output from the speakerphone beside the external display, aluminium body and slim design but a poor performancer. My rating 5/10. NOT GOOD!

                                        to lisa,,,,,you also have to have 3g reception in your area to use 3g...i only get a 3g signal in the town center so thats another point to remember as well.
