Do more with less
Did you know that if your handset battery is full, yet still plugged into a mains charger, it continues to draw energy from the electricity supply? In the mobile handset industry, this is called the ‘no-load mode’.Smarter charging
In May 2007, we were first to put alerts into our handsets to remind people to unplug their chargers.
All our devices now feature a power-saving standby mode, which helps you to save handset energy. We also research and experiment with the best way to use new energy sources, in particular, solar power.
The power of you
Some simple tips to reduce the energy your handset uses.
Star power
Ever wondered whether it’s possible to power a mobile phone just from the sun’s rays? As part of our long-term research into energy efficiency, we gave specially designed technology to a group of volunteers to help answer questions about solar power.
New power generation
To help you choose the most energy efficient charger, we’ve joined forces with handset manufacturers to create a common energy rating system.
