Samsung Solar Crest is yet another solar-powered handset

With the Blue Earth, Samsung showed its conception of future handsets with solar panels, thanks to which a device should be able to gain enough power for its main functions with energy from the sun. The Solar Crest shows the right place for this technology. The phone debuts in Pakistan, where cases of electricity shortages are registered relatively often. The model itself doesn’t have any interesting specs – a color display, FM radio, flashlight and polyphonic ringtones. Of course, the coolest feature is that after only ten minutes of charging under the sun, you will be able to talk for as long as three minutes. Sadly, there is no information about whether this high-tech miracle would be released in other countries besides Pakistan, but we definitely hope that the technology will become more popular in the near future.
