Vodafone announces the 360 H1 and 360 M1 touchscreen handsets by Samsung

.

Vodafone has announced two new touchscreen phones that work with the carrier's new Vodafone 360 cloud-based service.

The Vodafone 360 H1 is a full-featured touchscreen device and the Vodafone 360 M1 features some nice components at a more affordable price. Both devices are manufactured by Samsung and offer a range of options.

Each device revolves around Vodafone 360, a cloud service that lets users sync contacts, messages, photos, and music wirelessly or with a PC. The service integrates all of a user's address books from their phone, Facebook, Windows Live Messenger, and Google Talk into a single place. Users can also share status updates and location-based information with friends and family.

The 360 H1 includes a 3.5-inch OLED touchscreen display, 16GB of internal memory, and a 5.0 megapixel autofocus camera to shoot pictures. HSDPA and WiFi data connectivity are on-board for high-speed data. Users can use Bluetooth 2.0 to connect hands-free headsets, too. GPS will help users take advantage of Vodafone's 360 over-the-air data syncing service.

The 360 M1 features a 3.2-inch TFT touchscreen with internal storage provided by a microSD card slot (1GB card included). The phone includes 3G HSDPA connectivity for surfing the web and sending messages. Users can snap photos with the M1's 3.0 megapixel camera and then save them to the web with the Vodafone 360 suite. Bluetooth 2.0 is also packaged for use with hands-free headsets and a GPS will help users find their way.
