(+) The design of the N97 may be relatively sober, but build-quality is very high (-) at $650 unlocked and contract-free it's an expensive way to make clear calls
The BenQ-Siemens A58 is a business-orientated phone that aims to put all the features a business would need into a handset priced as inexpensively as possible.
Advantages: Although made thin, still using the dual-S81 camera Disadvantages: none
...BenQ-Siemens mobile phone series S81 is only 13 mm thick, the S81, including 3G mobile phone thin, thinner than the 3G mobile phone, Sony Ericsson M600i is 15 mm in thickness.

Advantages: pretty, unique, girly, photo phone book, mp3 player Disadvantages: a little slow, only 1 game, almost impossible to see the screen outside in daylight

The phone itself is a nice concept. Siemens are trying to get back into the mobile market and this collaboration with BenQ has so much potential to rival Nokia and Sony Ericsson. The question is does it pull it off?
In a word? No.
As I've said, it looks nice enough. Decked out in a sexy silver brushed metal effect it's quite attractive front on, but at the back it's just black plastic.
