    It says on the home page that this phone is in stores now ? Anyone seen it on sale yet ? The only place I've seen that even mention which networks it will be available soon on is www.directmobilephones.com. They say coming soon on Vodafone & o2, but neither of these networks mention this phone as coming soon on their own websites. I'm hoping to get it on Orange but I haven't seen anything about orange releasing it.

      I'm not too bothered about it not having a flash. I have a 6280 at the mo and the photos taken with the flash are poor anyway !

          this phone sucks, it`d all be good but without flash light it is useless, u could only take good pictures with perfect light conditions

            After reading the phones spec. I cant wait for it too come out; I am very anxiouse about the price, I expect it to be quite expensive, I cannot find any websites that have posted the price of this phone, so I guess I shall just have to wait and see

                  I've read the review on mobile-review.com. I still think this is sounds better than the phone I bought 6 wks ago - Nokia 6280.
                  Slimmer, smarter, better build and the camera is poor on 6280 anyway. The EF81 still seems one of the most appealing 3G handsets available in the near future. I beleive that if you want a quality camera then you still need to get a seperate digital camera. Camera phones at their best are still not that good in comparrison. I also have a SEW800i, which supposedly has the best camera available on a mobile available to date, I'm not impressed by the camera on that either. The autofocus is sometimes a pain in the butt. The 6280 camera is absolutely hopeless for close ups.

                      the phone is almost coming out in Belgium. Normally in a few days. The price should be 399€.

                        I saw this phone a few weeks ago and have been trying to find a high street retailer in Switzerland who may know a bit about it... alas even Swisscom raised their eyebrows when I mentioned the word "Benq". Am looking at comparing this with a Nokia N80(got to love their predictive text - they have that sorted). Anybody got any hints or tips that I should take into account? Cheers

                          According to the Carphone warehouse website it should be available in March sometime. I have been in the shop to ask for prices but they could'nt tell me as they said they only get there info on very short notice!

                            Cheaply made ? Obviously haven't read much bout this phone av you ? This phone uses just about the best quality materials I have seen ! Stainless steel, aluminium (black anodised), magnesium & mineral glass for the display. Yeah obviously ch3eaply made ! Doh !

                              Big deal! Looks dull,cheaply made and it's not a flipper. A 2MG pixel camera is useless and the sound of these mp3 phones is bloody awfull. Do young buyers have tin ears? Where's the diserning listener in the 14-28 age group that buys phones? How important is music to this generation anyway? This phone will fail to catch on I almost guarantee it.

                                  Just spoke to Vodafone UK - they have never heard of this phone!!! I wish they had some kind of idea if they'll be doing this before I plunge for the 6280 which might become a mistake!
                                  This phones looks and specs are great!
