The fact that Sony Ericsson is releasing two new greener cell phones is great news for me because I LOVE Sony Ericsson phones. When I first got a cell, hmmm, maybe 6-7 years ago (yeah, I jumped on that bandwagon late) I had no clue which phone to choose. I checked out CNET, as I always do when muddled about tech, and one of the good phone reviews in my preferred price range was the Sony Ericsson. I went with it and the darn thing lasted and lasted for years. When I got another about two years ago I went straight for a another Sony Ericsson.
However, this November some freakshow of a human busted through my car windows and stole my phone and I couldn’t find a Sony Ericsson through my carrier so I went with another brand, which I’m not happy with at all. Long story short, I really liked and miss my good old long-lasting Sony Ericsson.
Sony Ericsson Hazel in Passionate Red
So it may be time for me to make the move back to Sony Ericsson and not just because I can’t stand my new phone. Yesterday Sony Ericsson announced the release of two new slick GreenHeart phones along with the first Bluetooth Noise Shield Handsfree VH700 headeset. This move accents the sustainability practices the company is already working on (yay).
Fortuné Alexander, Global Marketing Director at Sony Ericsson, notes that just because these are “greener” phones though, consumers shouldn’t expect fewer features. Alexander says, “These mobile phones also give consumers a better voice quality experience, with Noise Shield, Clear Voice and Intelligent Volume Adaptation. Both phones offer an easy-to-use social networking experience featuring the Widget Manager application, which allows users access to their social networking page via the stand-by screen and quickly switch between different social networks.”
Both of the fresh new phones, the Sony Ericsson Elm and Sony Ericsson Hazel, have many excellent eco-friendly features that benefit the environment and help reduce CO2 emissions such as…
- Recycled plastics
- E-manual in phone
- Free from hazardous chemicals
- Low power consumption charger (EP300 GreenHeart)
- Walk Mate eco application
- Green calculator
- Minimized packaging
Both phones will be shipped with a GreenHeart personal handsfree; the Stereo Portable Handsfree HPM-60J, which is a step towards reaching the 100 per cent GreenHeart accessories goal. PLUS OMG the new phones are so good looking. My favorite is the Sony Ericsson Elm (shown above) which comes in Metal Black or a dreamy Pearly Rose (the pink is way tooooo cute)! The Sony Ericsson Hazel (shown below) is cool too but I’m not sure I’m into slider phones, so I’d go with the Elm – also I like the pink. Hazel comes in Superior Black and Passionate Red.
