Sony Cell Phones have unveiled one of its newest phones, the Hazel. The Hazel is not your average phone. While it incorporates the many new technologies that are expected in new phones today it also brings a new aspect to the table. The name Hazel may help guide you in the right direction if you are not able to guess. The Hazel, by Sony Cell Phones, is an environmentally friendly mobile phone.
So what constitutes an environmentally safe or friendly cell phone? The lines can blur here, however it seems that Sony Cell Phones has done a good job of not just placing a label on it with giving it the proper “green” features. These features make it part of the Sony-Ericsson Green Heart Program, help to reduce CO2 emissions, among other environmentally conscious specifications. These include being made of recycled plastic materials, an e-manual embedded into the phone, a condensed user guide, it is free of hazardous chemicals, a green calculator, the walk mate eco application, a charger with low power consumption, minimal packaging and waterborne paint. That is seemingly a very honest effort to make the phone environmentally friendly.
But, this is not simply a phone for tree huggers and the like, rather it has many other excellent, standard phone features. These include a quality voice feature through noise shield, clear voice and intelligent voice adaptation, Google Maps and Search, GPS, easy access to social networking sites such as Facebook, Myspace and Twitter as well as free weather forecasts from Accuweather, A 5 megapixel camera and even face detection features. It offers 10 hours of talk time and 430 hours of standby time.
So perhaps it is time to throw out some of our ideas about “going green” and general liberal ideals. We can be honest when saying that this phone will not be saving the world. However, if it does cut down on an individual’s carbon foot print, what’s not to like about that. It offers longer talk time than many cell phones, has many similar or better features than most phones and it’s not sucking everything it can out of this world. So why not get one?
It seems inevitable that phones and electronics in general, will become more and more conscious of the environment. This transition may be made either to keep their collective conscious clear, maybe to avoid being pegged as having a large carbon footprint or maybe to appeal to the large liberal “green” movement. This would positively impact us all, regardless of the true intentions behind the change.
