BenQ Mobile’s Collapse Complete

It appears that it is finally the end of the road for BenQ’s German mobile phone arm, BenQ Mobile. BenQ Mobile, formed when BenQ bought the remains of ailing Siemens Mobile, is now going to be sold off in pieces since no buyer could be found that the company’s creditors considered suitable. Assets like office furniture and computers are being sold off on Ebay.

BenQ Mobile was originally the mobile phone division of Siemens and employed 3000 people. Through a series of missteps, the company lost market share quickly to Nokia and Sony Ericsson and was eventually sold to Taiwan-based BenQ. BenQ stopped supporting the company in September 2006 when the division declared bankruptcy.
