Samsung's world's first solar mobile phone

A few days ago, Wei Feng.com reported a mobile phone called O2, which allowed people to rethink the new ways of recycling old mobile phones. But in fact, we can also start from other aspects, so that mobile phones become more environmentally friendly, such as solar charging mobile phones.

What is a solar mobile phone?

Literally, a solar mobile phone is a mobile phone that can use light energy to charge. Light refers not only to sunlight, but also to the use of fluorescent light to charge. As a trend of green design, solar mobile phones have indeed been sought after by many manufacturers. As early as 2007, many domestic mobile phone manufacturers announced that their mobile phones could be charged as long as they had light. However, these products are short-lived, more of a manufacturer's gimmick, and ultimately failed to get consumer recognition.

Samsung Guru E1107

In 2009, after saying that there was no electricity, the South Korean mobile phone giant Samsung launched the Guru E1107, the world's first solar cell phone. This phone can charge the battery through the solar panel on the back. However, The electricity generated by one hour of exposure can only maintain 5-10 minutes of conversation.

Despite its low efficiency, this phone is of great significance to consumers in developing countries because they do not need to carry several batteries with them and they do not have to worry about power outages.

In fact, Guru E1107 is not Samsung's only solar mobile phone. At the end of the same year, Samsung again launched a solar cell called Blue Earth, which added new network access capabilities, but the charging efficiency has not improved.

The future of solar mobile phones

Solar mobile phone will inevitably become the essential function of the future mobile phone, because the standby problem has always been a problem for smart phones. How to use convenient, energy-saving, environmentally safe, safe and reliable solar energy technology to transplant to mobile phones, making it become the kinetic energy support of mobile phones, need to consider There are many factors, and the photoelectric conversion problem bears the brunt.

We hope that solar energy technology can enter the field of smartphones as soon as possible. Even if we lose the charging treasures and chargers, we can increase the service life of the batteries and bring more convenience to people in terms of mobile phone calls and audio and video entertainment.
