The Siemens Mobile Phone Division was established in 1985 with the launch of their C1 analogue mobile phone. In 2000 Siemens acquired the Bosch mobile phone division but in 2005 Siemens sold its mobile phone division to Taiwanese company BenQ which was permitted to continue using the Siemens brand name. The Siemens S6 was introduced in 1998 and was marketed as being light and slim! It was however, a basic feature phone. The phone book stored telephone numbers and associated names within the SIM card with a fast dial capability accessed via the right hand menu soft key. A call register maintained details of the last 5 dialled and missed calls and timers recorded the duration of the last dialled called and the cumulative total. There was also the option of an audible reminder that would bleep every minute during a call. Finally, the Siemens S6 was able to both send and receive SMS text messages.
