The MOTO W233 Renew green cell phone for T-Mobile has four intriguing claims to fame:
- The world’s first cell phone crafted from recycled water bottle plastics (the Samsung Blue Earth S7550 is made from recycled water bottle plastics as well, but it came later, and the Samsung Reclaim is a green phone for Sprint).
- The world’s first carbon-neutral phone, Motorola says.
- A phone so cheap it’s practically free.
- A remarkably long-lasting battery.
Price
While the suggested retail price of the Motorola W233 Renew already starts low at a budget price, Web discounts bring the cost even lower.
Features
The MOTO W233 Renew has a shockingly long-lasting cell phone battery. It’s rated to last for up to 9 hours of talk time and up to 18.75 days of standby time when not in use at all. This rating of 9 hours makes the About.com list of our best cell phone batteries.
Size, Weight
The MOTO W233 Renew measures in at 4.4 inches by 1.8 inches by 0.6 of an inch, which does not make the About.com list of our best slim cell phones.
The Renew weighs in at a very light 3.0 ounces, though, which does make the About.com list of our best lightweight cell phones.
