Sprint on Thursday announced the Samsung Reclaim, the first phone in the U.S. constructed from eco-friendly bio-plastic materials. In addition to being constructed from 80 percent recyclable materials, Sprint said it will donate $2 to The Nature Conservancy's Adopt an Acre program each time a customer purchases a Reclaim.
"This generous donation from Sprint will help us protect and restore some of America's most beautiful and ecologically-important landscapes for future generations to enjoy," said Mark Tercek, president and CEO of The Nature Conservancy. "We applaud Sprint's sustainability efforts, as innovation and new technology are crucial to the future of conservation."
Features of the Reclaim include a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard, Sprint Navigation with GPS support, 2MP camera with 3x digital zoom and camcorder, expandable memory up to 32GB, and an integrated web browser.
The Reclaim will be made available in choice of Earth Green or Ocean Blue starting August 16 for $50 (after $30 instant rebate and $50 MIR) with a two-year service agreement.
