Samsung adds cut-price M1 to Vodafone 360 stable

Just days after wowing us with the H1 – the the first phone to come with Vodafone 360 – Samsung has given it a baby brother.

The M1 also comes with the Linux-based 360 interface, offering instant access to a whole host of social networking goodies and throwing all your chat, email and SIM contacts into a single, easy-to-use ‘rich profile’.

Samsung has scaled back on a few features to make the M1 slimmer – and cheaper – than the H1 announced on Monday. It has a slightly smaller 3.2in TFT touchscreen, 1GB of internal storage (versus the H1’s 16GB), HSDPA internet and a 3.0-megapixel camera instead of 5. It does come with integrated GPS, however, and the storage can be bumped up via microSD.

But the star of the show is undoubtedly Vodafone 360, and while we’ve still to get official word on the M1’s price or release date, it’s likely to showcase 360’s talents to a more price-conscious market than its big brother.

i got this phone on contract, its an ok phone however, this phone is really slow, it can take take up to 5 minutes to open a single app. and the touch screen isnt that responsive, and to Nathanlow3: the apps are all on one slide, so you scroll across the page, hence the reason, the apps on the right are only half visible :)
