Sprint has a new eco-friendly phone in its portfolio. LG Remarq is a messaging phone with a full sliding QWERTY keyboard featuring a 1.3 megapixel camera, MP3 player with microSD card slot (supports up to 16GB), Stereo Bluetooth wireless technology and instant messaging.
Available in either dark silver or turquoise, LG Remarq and its packaging are designed with environmentally responsible components including:
+ The outer casing is made from 19% post-consumer recycled plastic and the handset as a whole is 87% recyclable. The device meets strict RoHS standards for restriction of hazardous materials such as lead, mercury and cadmium.
+ Remarq contains low levels of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFR): two materials commonly targeted on green electronics guidelines.
+ Powered by an Energy Star-qualified charger which meets the energy-efficiency standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
+ The packaging is fully recyclable packaging featuring a brown craft paper exterior and made from 87% post consumer material (PCM). The phone tray inside the box is made from 100% PCM. The images and text on the box, as well as all in-box materials, are printed with soy ink.
+ The paper manual has been replaced with an online user manual that users can access beginning May 9.
In addition, LG Remarq comes pre-loaded with an innovative Eco Calculator application that allows customers to calculate C02 reduction savings by walking or cycling as opposed to driving their car. The reduction is calculated in pounds of C02 or trees planted.
LG Remarq will be available on May 9 in all Sprint retail channels including www.sprint.com and 1-800-Sprint1 for FREE with a new two-year service agreement and after a $19.99 instant rebate and $50 mail-in rebate (taxes and surcharges excluded).
