Manufactured by Samsung, the new Vodafone 360 H1 comes packed with all the normal technology you'd expect in a new handset.

With HSDPA 7.2, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and A-GPS it ticks all the right boxes from a connectivity point of view. You get the FM radio and the 3.5mm jack for your headphones.

The touch display is pretty special too, with a 3.5-inch AMOLED display with a cracking 800 x 480 pixel resolution. In terms of memory you get 16 or 8GB models with support for microSD card too.

Around the back is a 5-megapixel camera with a flash, as well as a wedge of multimedia support, including H.263, H.264, MPEG4 and DivX. It comes with a YouTube client (Java based) and supports streaming over H.263, H.264 and MPEG4.

Powering this new beast is a TI 600MHz processor, with motion, proximity and light sensors, but no mention of a compass for your mapping.

It runs on a new Linux Mobile platform - dubbed LiMo - and brings together the new Vodafone 360 experience, mashing together apps and services to connect your digital and mobile life.

You'll be able to get the Vodafone 360 H1 in the UK before the end of the year.
