Mumbai: One of the largest Indian mobile phone brand, Micromax, is planning to launch a phone with a built-in solar charger.
The Mobile Indian reported that the solar panel of the mobile will take 3 hours to charge phones.
“We have been at the forefront of innovation. We were the first to launch long battery life phones, dual SIM phones and many more. Our next innovation is to get rid of the mobile phone charger by including a solar panel in our next phone. This solar charger will top up the charge in 3 hours to support 1.5 hours of talktime,” the report quoted Rahul Sharma, co-founder and executive director, Micromax as saying.
The launch is expected within a week. However, Rahul refused to disclose any further details about the phone apart from the fact that it will be a feature phone and not a smartphone.
