Spanish owned global telecommunications giant – Telefonica and Nokia have partnered up in an exclusive project that will see the launch of a very special version of the Nokia N8 and C7 Symbian^3 devices. An innovative offer that will allow customers to make a greener choice when purchasing the new Nokia N8 and Nokia C7 smartphones.

These special eco versions of the Nokia N8 and C7 will come with an eco apps folder, packed with green content, such as the educational game, Climate Mission, and other third-party apps, plus a link to the device’s eco-profile – Nokia’s full declaration of the environmental impact of each model.

The user’s start-up guide is condensed down to a single page, representing a 95 per cent saving in paper. The packaging is also minimal – just enough to protect the devices in transit – and 100 per cent recyclable. Both phones come with a high-efficiency energy charger to reduce charging times – the devices will also remind you to unplug when charging is finished.

The Nokia N8 and Nokia C7 are two of Nokia’s most environmentally friendly phones ever.

Both feature an energy-saving mode, a power-efficient AMOLED screen and an ambient light sensor. Both use innovative new materials: the Nokia N8 contains bio-plastics, while the Nokia C7 is the first in the industry to use bio-paints. Like all Nokia phones, they are free of PVC, BFR (brominated flame retardants) and RFR (chlorinated and brominated compounds and antimony trioxide).

This offer is part of Nokia’s and Telefonica’s “Green Customer Experience” cooperation. Both companies have been recognized by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index as leaders in the field of sustainability: Nokia heads the technology sector whilst Telefónica leads the telecommunications sector.

The project will launch first in Spain through Telefonica’s brand – Movistar, and gradually be introduced to other markets in which Telefonica is present, such as the United Kingdom, Germany and Latin America.
