It is that time of year when we start hearing nothing more than things along the lines of ‘coming early next year’ and of course, that often means during CES which takes place in early January. Anyway, that seems to be the case with the BenQ R100 tablet which is said to be running Android more »

BenQ’s V2220 21.5″ LED LCD monitor seems to have bagged many world titles, from the “world’s slimmest” to the “world’s highest dynamic contrast ratio.” Boasting a thinness of only 15mm, the monitor is also very green. Power consumption is reduced by 28.6% compared to traditional CCFL models. When you switch to Eco mode, it further more »

BenQ is updating its E series LCDs with the E2200HDA computer display. What makes this LCD special is the fact that it uses a 16:9 aspect ratio, meaning it can fit in widescreen HD content without the need to display the black bars that usually appears on most 16:10 non-native screens. And with that BenQ more »

BenQ has just launched its latest digital camera offering, and boy can we just say that it sure is slim. In fact this ultra-compact camera, dubbed the T850 may just be the slimmest in the crowd so far at only 14.9mm thick. But no matter how much we convince you that this baby is as sleek as it can get, we know that you would rather know about its features and functionality. Luckily, the T850 delivers a nice little punch that might drive you to consider getting one as soon as it becomes available.

The T850 packs good features such as a high 1600 ISO sensitivity, 3x optical zoom, 3-inch TFT LCD, 8.0-megapixel CCD sensor and SD/SDHC media support. But aside from these features, what makes BenQ T850 stand out among the crop of digital cameras in its line is its touch screen feature which would allow you to access camera functions by finger tapping, encircling or swiping. And yes, for a digital camera which employs actual “swiping” gesture to view photos, the T850 hits one mark on this one.

We don’t expect BenQ to come up with a mobile phone that could match up to industry leaders such as the iPhone or BlackBerry, but if it wants to make its presence felt in the mobile market, it should at least come up with a mobile phone that has something innovative to offer. We’re not more »

BenQ has upgraded its C series digital camera lineup with two new models, the 7-megapixel DSC C750 and the 8-megapixel DSC C850. With their classic design accentuated by an elegant looking front to back leather handle, these cameras will most likely appeal to users who prefer the classic look of old manual cameras.

The DSC750 and DSC850 boast of a super-shake-free mode with high ISO that can be used when the cameras are on static and movie modes. This allows for the production of clean and crisp photo and video output. BenQ has also provided users with the option to zoom in and out of scenes when recording videos in MPEG4 format at either 640 x 480 or 720 x 400 resolutions.

BenQ is slowly venturing out of the mobile phone arena and into the UMPC battle ring with this intriguing new device which will supposedly be an Atom-based little PC. Details and specs have been very slow to come but we now have a somewhat relatively clear picture of it, and just about all of the necessary info you’ll need to know in case you intend on purchasing it.

Apparently, this little number is going to be somewhat like a miniature Eee PC, with specs that resemble that UMPC’s very closely. BenQ’s MID will reportedly have an 800 MHz Silverthorne processor, 512 MB of RAM, a 4GB SSD and a Poulsbo chipset. The connectivity options, meanwhile, range from HSDPA, 802.11 b/g WiFi, and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR. The screen looks large enough and presumably readable even under direct sunlight. Already this looks like a formidable Nokia Tablet competitor, and I haven’t even finished detailing the other specifications yet.

BenQ has unveiled a new model in its Joybook R laptop series with the Joybook R45. Sporting an unusual leather-like finish on the exterior, the BenQ R45 also has a latch-free closure which adds to its sleek design as well as to its durability. The R45 is powered by a 2.10GHz Intel Core 2 Duo more »

Honestly, the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this phone was “Wow.” I never even thought BenQ was still around and making mobile phones, but apparently, it’s trying to tell us to not yet write them off with their latest offering, the super slim BenQ T60. At only 8.9mm thin, it’s more »

BenQ wants to define a new lifestyle trend in the design of computer hardware. And as an opening salvo, BenQ has released the 24-inch V2400W widescreen LCD. Fresh from receiving the iF Design Award, which is given to elite computer companies for their outstanding design, the BenQ V2400W gives a sneak peek at BenQ’s newly evolved Kinergy Design, that almost mimic a B-2 stealth bomber.

BenQ claims the V2400W LCD as the thinnest 24-inch widescreen LCD, with only 2.44-inches at its thickest point. This measures more than 21% of the next thinnest LCD monitor available in the market today. It has blue-LED and touch controls that adds to its elegant appearance. And how about durability? Was this not taken for granted in place of design and aesthetic features? Definitely not, as the LCD’s stand can fully support the 24-inch widescreen and even provide flexibility for adjusting viewing angles. This was made possible by the precise torque and friction applied between the metallic parts of the hinges.
