BenQ-Siemens


The phone you see above, ladies and gentlemen, is the S68 Ceramic edition. Available only in Germany, this limited edition S68 BenQ-Siemens phone has tech specs exactly like the regular models, but it has a body made up of different materials. The front's made of steel while the rear part is made of ceramic formed at a temperature of 1350 degrees celsius. The ceramic used for this phone is the same as that used in automobile brakes. BenQ-Siemens believes that the ceramic can be pretty resistant to scratching. The display is also specially coated for prevention of scratches.

We think the S68 looks sweet. It's stylish, and the color scheme ain't bad either. The scratch-resistant back cover is also a big selling factor. Plus, it's got the words "limited edition" on the front. Them's magic words, man, and will undoubtedly cause a lot of people to go out and buy this phone.

This baby will hit stores in Germany this month at a suggested retail price of 499 Euros ($635).
