BenQ today expands its Joybook R series lineup with the launch of Joybook R45. Powered by a 2.10 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, the Joybook R45 features an extra-bright 14.1” widescreen display enhanced by the BenQ’s patented UltraVivid technology, an integrated 2-megapixel webcam for video calls and a luxurious leather-like finish with special soft-touch coating. The Joybook R45 also comes equipped with the best-of-class nVIDIA® GeForce® 8400M G discrete graphics and supports major WiFi standards, keeping you connected at much faster speed.

Meticulously designed and built, the Joybook R45’s leather-like finish with latch-free closure evokes a handsome leather-bound folio that enables the R45 to fit in with any personal accessories.  The WLAN and power buttons are set in a stunning aluminum decorative strip with a striking crimson seam making the laptop the one that truly stands out from the rest.

BenQ’s visual display expertise amplifies all applications from video calls to multimedia applications.  The Joybook R45’s 14.1” wide-screen LCD panel is rated at an extra-bright 200nits and its display performance is boosted further by BenQ’s patented UltraVivid technology, which takes advantage of DBEF™ (Display Brilliance Enhancement Film) to deliver vibrant, razor-sharp picture quality that is always perfect, even for brightly-lit environments.

The Joybook R45 is a mobile multimedia powerhouse that offers superior experience rendered by the best-of-class nVIDIA® GeForce® 8400M G discrete graphics compatible with the integrated HDMI interface, speakers (1.5W x 2) with the smart noise suppression and echo cancellation and an integrated microphone for high quality video calls and other AV applications.

The BenQ R45 will be available in China, Taiwan, S. East Asia and Russia in April, 2008.
