The green bug has finally smitten the cellphone and the first example is the very impressive Samsung Reclaim which will be available with a Sprint subscription. Both the companies call it the super-eco phone and it is indeed true to this name with 80% recycled materials used to give it form.

The phone is constructed from bio plastic made from corn and there is no use whatsoever of the PVC. Even the BFR (brominated flame retardants) find a minimal amount of usage in the composition of the phone. The green factor apart, it does have some regular features which include a QWERTY keyboard, a 2MP camera, stereo Bluetooth and a slot for a microSD card up to 32GB.

Even the packaging for the new Samsung Reclaim is green with 70-percent recycled materials used and the manuals written in soy ink.

Available in two color choices- Earth Green and Ocean Blue, Sprint will begin selling this phone from August 16 for $50 on a two-year contract.
