Physically, the blocky Sanyo M1 is rather short in length for a clamshell styled device, with a measurement of 91mm (3.6″). At times, the cover would only flip open halfway causing me to use two hands to get the device to open to its full open position. Despite some of its shortcomings, the 108g (3.8oz) M1 is still compact and pocketable.

When closed, the top of the M1 houses the built-in 15mm speakers that sits above the colorful external 262k color LCD, 128×96 pixel, display.

Eventhough the device’s internal antenna is housed here, the hinge protrudes too far and definitely could be a turn-off to some. It looks a bit like an ice scraper.

The device’s bright 2″ QVGA (320×240 pixel) resolution display, capable of showing up to 262k colors, resides here and takes up almost all of the space on the top half of the flip.

Additional key features include stereo Bluetooth wireless technology, a 2.0 megapixel camera with auto-focus, nine equalizer settings for fine-tuning the listening experience, and background music mode for listening to music while checking e-mail, surfing the Web or sending text messages. The M1 by SANYO also has external controls and large external LCD for optimal usability.
