Vodafone has launched eight new own-brand handsets for European pre-pay customers and emerging markets.
Touch screens, internet access and cameras are included in the new range catering for the lower end of the market.
Vodafone has already sold 20 million own-brand mobiles.
The new phones include three additions to the Vodafone 533 Catwalk range unveiled earlier this year.
Of these one is a metallic red phone, while another is a 'Lady' handset showing Berlin-based artist Tomek Sadurski's impression of girls about town.
The third is a Crystal version developed with Crystallized, which has crystals embedded directly into the black slider case. When the phone is activated, users will see a Swarovski Elements animation on the screen.
All the handsets are expected to be on shelves in time for Christmas.
