The Samsung Monte was released a few weeks ago and it’s already getting quite a lot of attention. Samsung have a huge selection of mobiles from entry level sub-£100 handsets all the way up to high-end smartphones such as the S9000 which is due next week.
The Monte is a decent looking handset offering a 3″ capacitive touschscreen display and features Samsung’s tried and trusted TouchWiz interface.
Lots of decent features really for a handset that will set you back less than £160 SIM-free, including Exchange Email support, GPS, FM radio, and WiFi. There are also widgets for the most popular services such as YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.
We’ll be looking at the Monte over the next few weeks but you can have a closer look at the handset in my unboxing video below.
