the SL80 sliderAfter the Pretty Kitty phone, BenQ-Siemens does it again; women and men (why not?) will be rushing to get their hands on the company's new SL80 slider phone.

BenQ-Siemens has released their new triband GSM/EDGE SL80 handset which is designed for the fashion-conscious consumer. The handset has proSLIDE, the semi-automatic sliding mechanism that makes opening and closing your phone easier compared to flip phones and other sliders.


The SL80 also comes with 52MB of storage to back up your videos and pictures taken via the 1.3 megapixel camera. The music player application supports MP3 and AAC+ formats (something that the pretty kitty phone didn't have). The 1.8" screen sports a 132x176 resolution and has a 262k transflective TFT display. The phone also has the PictBridge support which allows you to connect to a bluetooth-enabled printer so you can print out your images instantly.


This new feminine slider serves as the successor to the earlier SL75 which proved to be a hit and is aimed at the design-conscious user. The handset comes with an ultra-stylish charm (also in shimmery metallic rose, of course) upon purchase. BenQ believes the SL80 will be a sure hit with women who would rather don a stylish phone than a stiff-looking polished deep black one. Sadly though, the phone only comes in this color. And guys, it's not pink; it's mauve.
