Docomo says the mobile phone can be recharged with sunlight as well as electricity, and, even if the battery has completely lost its charge, just 10 minutes of solar recharging via a panel on the phone's body provides approximately one minute of talk time. The handset comes with an eight-megapixel CCD camera that, according to Docomo, “takes excellent photographs even dim lighting or when objects are moving.” The handset maker says the SOLAR HYBRID's waterproof body is resistant to water sprays from all directions and submergible to depths up to one metre, allowing “safe, carefree enjoyment of mobile communication and entertainment in the bath, kitchen, beach, rain or other environments where water is present.” Docomo announced that the phone will be exhibited at its booth at Wireless Japan 2009, which will take place at Tokyo Big Sight from July 22 to 24. |
