Samsung release their new phone titled the Samsung Blue Earth
Samsung have been producing high quality phones for many years. They are careful to create phones that are as least harmful to the environment as possible, and continually improve their factories to make them more Eco Friendly. There is no doubt that the latest phone released from Samsung, titled the Samsung Blue Earth is one of the most Eco friendly phones ever produced.
The back of the phone is a fully functional solar panel. This allows you to charge your phone up with rays of light from the sun. Although it will take longer to charge compared to if you used the mains plugs, it will save you money on your electricity bill and also allow you to never run out of battery whilst on the go again.
The phone is made from a lot of recycled house hold waste, saving the factories from producing harmful chemicals to make new plastic. The phone itself is not half bad either, with a 3.2 megapixel camera built in you will be able to take photos of your favorite locations and moments. Samsung have announced that the phone is going to be released in Sweden later this month, and the phone should follow in the rest of Europe and Asia shortly after, but an exact date has not been given yet. If you want to get your hands on one of these phones, then keep your eyes peeled for details and a release date, and regularly check the Samsung website for more information. No price has been given yet, but there is expected to be some very nicely priced Samsung Blue Earth contracts and pay as you go tariffs.
