Motorola has announced the launch of two new mobile phones meant to make social connectivity and responsibility accessible to people all around the world. The MOTO W233 Renew is a device made from plastics comprised of recycled water bottles, while MOTOSURF A3100 is a high-speed touch tablet that comes with a fully customizable home screen. The company will debut the device at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this month.
The design of MOTO W233 Renew is environmentally responsible, and the phone is able to provide the quality Motorola has accustomed us with. The device features a plastic housing that has been made from recycled water bottles, fully recyclable itself, and it is also the world’s first carbon neutral phone. The company partnered with Carbonfund.org and managed to offset the carbon dioxide from manufacturing, distributing and operating the handset through a series of investments in reforestation and renewable energy sources.
“Today, natural resources, energy and time are more precious than ever before,” said Jeremy Dale, corporate vice president, global marketing, Motorola Mobile Devices. “From the product’s design, to the packaging to our partnership with Carbonfund.org, we wanted to ensure that this device makes the right impact with consumers and the environment.”
The company also managed to reduce the packaging by 22 percent, at the same time using only 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper for the box and the printed materials inside it. The manufacturer also offers users the possibility to return their previous phones for recycling at no cost. MOTO W233 Renew offers nine hours of talk time, CrystalTalk technology and messaging capabilities, and it will become available at T-Mobile USA in Q1 2009.
