BenQ showcase its T80, the latest next-generation NFC (Near Field Communications) smartphone, at this year's Mobile World Congress. Not only does T80 feature all the capabilities of a smartphone, it is also an all-in-one device that users can carry to pay for transportation or access private security systems at home.

BenQ T80 is the world's first NFC-enabled smartphone to feature Windows Mobile 6 operating system. T80 features dual storage options for NFC data, meaning that users can either store transaction or security data on the microSD card or on the SIM card, providing convenience and portability when users change to another NFC-enabled phone.

T80 shows the unique Flash user interface on a 2.2-inch screen and houses a 3.0 mega pixel built-in camera. Users can time automatic wallpaper changes according to their preferences. It is also DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance)-compliant, meaning that it can be integrated into a family’s DLNA-compliant home entertainment system and be used as a remote control for any other DLNA-compliant devices.

BenQ collaborated with Taipei Smart Card Corporation, the operator of Taiwan's first integrated contactless transport card initiative scheme, to embed NFC technology into T80, making applications such as electronic ticketing for public transportation, parking payment and adding or checking account value possible. T80 can also be configured to access private security systems for homes.
