World’s First Solar Powered Touch Screen Phone By Samsung

February 17th, 2009

samsung-solar-phoneSamsung unveiled world’s first solar powered full touch screen phone called as “Blue Earth”. This phone is made from recycled plastic called PCM, which is extracted from water bottles. The phone is designed to resemble the shape of a shiny pebble, and uses a small solar panel to provide power. By charging with the solar panel located on the back of the phone, users can generate enough electronic power to call anytime anywhere.

A full solar charge of around 10 to 14 hours will provide enough power for around four hours of talk time. The handset can still be charged normally using a conventional plug.

Blue Earth goes on sale in the UK later this year and Samsung did not give any details about price. No idea when this phone will launch in India.
