Plastic – you are probably tired of it, aren't you? Sadly, that is what most mobile devices, including some pretty high-end smartphones and tablets, are made of. That is why seeing an unusual handset design, such as that of the ADzero bamboo smartphone, is as refreshing as taking a breath of fresh air on a sunny Sunday morning...

Wood...that's it.
The specs are a kill but i'm worried about the durability.
It looks fragile.

Oh man...i've literally grown up knowing bamboos cause they grow in numbers where i live!
However, if the material they use is re-enforced or treated with some chemicals then it's something else!
But if it's plain bamboo, considering the hardware inside is heavier, it is likely to break!

Most bamboo as it dries cracks.

However, if the material they use is re-enforced or treated with some chemicals to harden then it's something else!
But if it's plain bamboo, considering the hardware inside is heavier, it is likely to break if dropped!

4.5" screen might be the sweet spot, unless they make the bezel too big.

It is. I forget where I saw it but I remember thinking that the size of the phone didn't match the size of the screen. I think it's like GS3 size or maybe One X size... but thicker.

Please conserve mother nature. Trees or bamboos should be not use in a smartphone they should be left and multiply

I thought that bamboo used to be processed in sulfuric acid and other neurotoxins? Did the process change already?
