Blue Earth

A unique and slick eco-friendly touch mobile phone to be released.



Reference

Designed to symbolize a flat and well rounded shiny pebble, Samsung today unveiled "Blue Earth", the first solar powered full-touch screen environmentally friendly Smartphone.

Among its energy saving features is a solar panel located on the back of the phone that Samsung says can generate enough electronic power to call anytime anywhere.

In addition to saving energy through solar the phone helps to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions in the manufacturing process, because it is made from a recycled plastic called PCM, which is extracted from water bottles. The device, including charger, is free from harmful substances such as Brominated Flame Retardants, Beryllium and Phthalate.

Blue Earth comes with a unique user interface which lets users set screen brightness, backlight duration and Bluetooth to an energy-efficient mode, this new user interface allows the user to be energy-efficient with just one click of ’Eco mode’. Through the ‘eco walk’ function the user can count their steps with an in-built pedometer, calculating how much CO2 emissions have been reduced by walking as opposed to motor transport.
