Samsung have unveiled the world’s first solar-powered touchscreen handset – the Blue Earth.
The Blue Earth Mobile Phone is built out of recycled water bottles, which is like the Motorola Renew, and Samsungs answer to a “Green” mobile phone. Adding to the “Green” theme the phone has a built in pedometer that tracks how many trees you have saved by walking rather than using your car. A mobile phone that calculates how much you have reduced your carbon footprint.
The phone has a solar panel on the back of the phone, which means that in order to charge it you will need to place it face-down and in direct sunlight. So we are not quite sure what will happen if it is overcast and raining and obviously when it is in your pocket it will not charge-up.
The Blue Earth has a touchscreen using Samsung’s new TouchWiz interface and comes with the usual Bluetooth.
