Benq Siemens EF51
Quick ViewEvaluation in my collection: Great- 9.5/10
Life timer: N/A | Boxed: YES
Release Year: 2006 | Release Price: ~100 USD
About: As odd as it may be for me to say, it?s a really cute phone, even a little girly perhaps. It has a certain je-ne-sais-quoi feel when it comes to its looks. A warped egg maybe? You decide. The EF51 has a small TFT display with a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels and 256k colors. The keypad is right behind the music player panel in front. So all you have to do is flip it open. The keys on the pad may seem small, but they?re easy to use.
On one side you?ll find a dedicated voice recorder key followed by the volume keys and the dedicated camera key. There?s also the proprietary charging port. On the other side is the proprietary earphone / USB socket, but thankfully BenQ-Siemens has provided a converter to 3.5mm. Underneath this socket is the miniSD card slot. The EF51 weighs in at 95g which also makes it a light mobile phone aside from being small.

Benq Siemens EF81
Quick ViewEvaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10
Life timer: 0 | Boxed: YES
Release Year: 2006 | Release Price: N/A
About: The BenQ-Siemens EF81 is undoubtedly similar specs-wise and even in looks to the Motorola Razr V3x. The most impressive design feature of this phone is how thin it is, considering it has the same features as the Motorola V3x — which is much bigger. The EF81 measures 51 by 94 by 16mm thin whereas the V3x is 55 by 99 by 20mm, making the EF81 4mm less wide, 5mm shorter and 4mm thinner.

HP Ipaq – HW6915
Quick ViewEvaluation in my collection: As new – 9.9/10
Life timer: N/A | Boxed: NO
Release Year: 2006 | Release Price: N/A
About: The iPAQ is a Pocket PC and personal digital assistant, first unveiled by Compaq in April 2000; the name was borrowed from Compaq’s earlier iPAQ Desktop Personal Computers. Since Hewlett-Packard’s acquisition of Compaq, the product has been marketed by HP. The devices use a Windows Mobile interface. In addition to this, there are several Linux distributions that will also operate on some of these devices. Earlier units were modular. “Sleeve” accessories, technically called jackets, which slide around the unit and add functionality such as a card reader, wireless networking, GPS, and even extra batteries were used. Later versions of iPAQs have most of these features integrated into the base device itself, some including GPRS mobile-telephony (sim-card slot and radio).

Motorola F3
Quick ViewWOW Factor: The first mobile phone to use electronic paper in its screen
Evaluation in my collection: BNIB – 10/10
Life timer: 0m | Boxed: YES
Release Year: 2006 | Release Price: ~20 EUR
About: The F3 (frequently known as the Motofone) was a GSM phone available in two band variants, and was released on 28 November 2006.
The Motofone F3 was designed to appeal to the low-end market and developing countries, and was thus less functional, but also less expensive than most phones. Motorola made it appealing to developing markets and people with reading and visual difficulties by using only simple symbols and using speech synthesis to identify tasks in the menu.
The F3 was the first mobile phone to use electronic paper in its screen. Motorola used the term ClearVision to describe the new display, which was manufactured using E Ink’s electrophoretic imaging film. The electronic paper main display allowed for the phone’s thinness (no glass), longer battery life, and outdoor viewability (paper-like reflectivity). It had a backlight for the keypad and a slit that projects the backlight onto the screen so the display can be seen in darkness.The characteristics of the display were fairly restrictive. The text display contained only two lines of six characters each, making the use of text messaging (SMS) and data services less practical than on standard LCD displays. The display used a fixed ‘digital clock’ style font, with no functionality for changing between upper case and lower case text. All SMSs sent by the F3 were received entirely in lower case, and each character of any SMS received by the F3 is displayed in whichever case made the most sense using the font. Also, the non-alphabetic characters were severely limited due to this display, as the phone could only provide support for the following characters:
Comma (,) (periods . in incoming text messages are displayed as commas)
Hyphen (-)
Question mark (?)
At-sign (@)
Asterisk (*)
(+), to write this character, hold down the 0 key
No other non-alphanumeric characters could be entered, and on receiving an SMS any non-alphabetic character not listed above was displayed as a hyphen.Although the display could be restrictive when it came to text applications, the display was very energy efficient and conducive to extremely long battery life.
