Just when Samsung introduced its solar powered touch phone, its Korean peer, LG also announced its solar powered clamshell phone.

The phone is made from bio-plastic and is free from 6 RoHS hazardous substances (lead, cadmium, mercury, chromium 6, PBB, PBDE). LG has also worked on the standby power consumption and even has an eco-friendly manual which is printed with soy ink on a recycled paper.
The phone will be showcased at MWC.
