Sony Ericsson’s Greenheart mobile phones are made of recycled materials and uses minimal and recycled packaging as well as e-manuals to reduce any impact the phone will have on the environment. You can read the Sony Ericsson Elm Review to see the phone yourself. Even though its a green phone, Sony didn’t scrimp on its features.

If you’re trying to go green, as with any other materials, aluminum (or any other metal) is better than plastic. On the onset, making plastic takes less energy as compared to aluminum but if we’re going to take a look at the long term impact, recylcing metal such as aluminum takes less energy compared with plastic. Plastic products also can only be recycled in a limited number of times while metals can be recycled without any degradation to the materials.

Of course, specs-wise, the HTC Legend is a bit inferior to the Desire and it seems that the Legend is matching the price of the HTC Desire in some countries. There’s no word yet as to the availability date of the HTC Desire and Legend in the US but in the UK, the Desire is already being shipped by T-Mobile. HTC desire deals in the UK are available in all networks while the Legend will be exclusive to Vodafone and will be available starting April 2 so don’t expect to find HTC Legend mobile phone with free gifts in other UK wireless carriers.

Wouldn’t it be nice if all businessmen would have a green phone? I mean, I’m not saying they carry a solar powered phone but something like the Sony Ericsson Aspen.

The Sony Ericsson Aspen has a Blackberry-like look, has a touchscreen (which is really popular these days) and the most important: it’s made from environmentally friendly materials and waterborne painting. There’s no manual, just an electronic one so a lot of trees are saved.

Best of all, it’s not a bad looking phone at all. There’s no word as to when the Sony Ericsson Aspen will be available state side.

Now I’ve heard of the LG Arena and I don’t think there’s any mention about the phone being made from recycled materials or if its solar powered or any of the green stuff but EISA has given it their stamp of approval. Okay, so maybe the Samsung Reclaim can’t enter because it’s not yet released but didn’t Motorola have a phone that’s made of recycled water bottles? Now that has to count for something.

Oh well, I better get a look at this LG Arena and see if it truly fits the “green” bill.

The tip of the organic icing? $2 of the profit will go to the Nature Conservancy’s Adopt an Acre Program. The Samsung Reclaim is also a beautiful piece of mobile phon with a slider mechanism and QWERTY keyboard, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth with A2DP, microSD slot, and come with Sprint navigation.

The Samsung Reclaim is another green gadget you can add to your earth-friendly gadgets.

It’s only a matter of time before solar mobile phones comes, what with the thousand of solar chargers out there. Anyways, The Samsung E1107 is Samsung’s first solar mobile phone. Charging the phone one hour under the sun will give you around 5-10 minutes of talk time, plus the Samsung E1107 also has FM radio, MP3 ringtones, flashlight, etc.

And unlike other expensive green gadgets, the Samsung E1107 is cheap, at only $59. Of course, it has yet to be put up for sale outside India, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
