If you’re looking for an affordable solar-powered phone, then be sure to check out Samsung’s upcoming E1107 Crest Solar phone. On the back cover of this phone you’ll find a large solar cell that can keep its 800mAh battery charged when exposed to the sun. 1 hour of solar charging can provide an additional 5 to 10 minutes of talk time. So here are the rest of the specs: a 1.52-inch CSTN display with 128 x 128 pixels and 65K colors, an FM radio, MP3 ringtones, a built-in flashlight, a Mobile Tracker and supports dual band GSM connectivity (900/1800 MHz). The phone will be available in Europe, Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and Latin America starting in June 2009. In India, the phone is called Samsung Solar Guru and costs only 2,799 INR ($59) unlocked. [Unwiredview via Upcoming Cell Phones]
