NorthGeek Product Review: Sony Ericsson Naite eco-friendly GSM mobile phone

by Daniel Wolfe Posted in Gadgets, Mobile, Reviews

Sony Ericsson recently launched their GreenHeart™ initiative, with the aim of offering an environmentally friendly option to mobile phone users. As the company puts it, GreenHeart™ “introduces green innovations that reduce the overall environmental impact of the phone without compromising on style or features.”

We think they did a great job with the Naite. The Naite is a $25 (with plan) compact phone, now available from Fido in Canada, that does pretty much what you’d expect from any compact candybar phone in 2010 – it has a solid 2.0 megapixel camera, and another mini cam on the front of the phone for video calling; is 3G compatible; has a solid TFT screen with excellent clarity, brightness, and color; and is email ready, with a WAP browser as well.

For more details and a closer look, check out our video [sorry, we lent our HD video camera to a friend at SXSW, so please enjoy this standard def review]:
