Benq Siemens has submitted 4 unannounced phones (actually more but the rest are announced model) to iF (International Forum Design) competition. The phones namely Venus C3, Cupid, Hermes B, Ulysses B1. While the new phones design didn't give any surprise, we will have to look into the phone feature and performance. See iF product description inside.

The Ulysses B1 is targeted at fashion-minded mobile phone users who demand a multifunctional mobile phone. The design concept imitates the small size and easy portability of a pocket notebook. The Ulysses B1 is lightweight and smaller than traditional 3G mobile phones. Its sleek lines conceal all the major function areas, and its front and back covers radiate a mood of continuity and simplicity. The Ulysses B1 is a 3G mobile phone with extra-large screen for excellent visual communication. The phone’s horizontal display lets you take pictures just like a digital camera. Not only does the aluminum metallic back cover increase the decorative value of the phone, it can also be used as a prepping mirror for self-portraits.
