Motorola W233 RENEW Unlocked Cell Phone Product Details

Motorola W233 RENEW Unlocked Cell Phone
Today, natural resources, energy and time are more precious than ever before. That is why Motorola® created the environmentally responsible MOTO™ W233 Renew. Not only is the phone’s housing made using plastics comprised of recycled water bottles and 100 percent recyclable, but Renew is also the world’s first carbon neutral phone. Renew delivers the quality you expect from a Motorola device while empowering you to reduce your carbon footprint. Renew was designed for eco-conscious consumers as well as the millions of people who put making phone calls as their number one priority in a mobile phone. Renew makes environmental responsibility affordable for people everywhere.

What It Is & Why You Need It:

  • The first certified Carbonfree cell phone on the market
  • Through an alliance with Carbonfund.org, Motorola offsets the amount of energy required to manufacture, distribute and operate the phone.

Renew: Re-use, Recycle
Simple to recycle, Renew is the first mobile phone to be made from plastics comprised of recycled water bottles, which means 20 percent less energy is needed to create the phone compared to standard plastic processes. Plus, the plastic phone housing is 100 percent recyclable, which promotes future environmental responsibility.

CarbonFree® Product Certification
Motorola is making it easier for you to support the environment. Renew is the first certified CarbonFree® alternative to conventional mobile phones. Through its alliance with Carbonfund.org, Motorola offsets the carbon dioxide required to manufacture, distribute and operate the phone during its lifetime through investments in renewable energy sources and reforestation.

Minimize Environmental Waste
Even the phone’s reduced packaging size and in-box materials printed using vegetable-based inks on 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper were created with the environment in mind. And, by reducing package size and weight, we help reduce transportation emissions. An in-box postage-paid recycling envelope also helps you easily return your previous mobile phone for recycling and contribute to environmentally responsible efforts.

Talk More, Charge Less, Conserve More
With up to nine hours of talk time, you can talk more, charge less and reduce your energy usage.

A Commitment to the Environment
Renew is an extension of Motorola’s ongoing global commitment to reduce our impact on the environment. It is a convergence of efforts that lead to better products for everyone, such as Renew.

CrystalTalk™ Technology
Renew uses CrystalTalk technology to amplify your conversation and help reduce background noise so virtually nothing comes between you and your call.

THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING - GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.

Very good phone

I am very pleased with this phone. Sound is clear, more than enough features. It comes with North American and Europe power supply and it can be charged directly from a mini USB cable (no need for an expensive travel charger). If you plan to use it for listening to music, you need to remove the back cover and battery to change the SDHC memory card.

Good simple phone

This is a fine, simple phone, unlocked as advertised, and works immediately with my AT&T prepay card. The phone had a few of someone else's numbers on it when I first started it, but easily deleted. If you need a cheap phone, don't want a camera, bluetooth, or any other fancy features, then this is a great option.

I don't speak French

Popped in the SIM card and the phone is locked and starts in French language mode. Very disappointing.

Best deal for the $$

Works well, the MP3 player works well. Design is solid and constructive. Downsides: LCD is a little dim, doesn't have Bluetooth. Speaker-phone works well too with the Crystal Clear technology (whatever its called- gets rid of background noise when talking). Its quite small, I was amazed actually.
