Samsung announced today the cool looking Samsung Blue Earth solar powered mobile phone. The Blue Earth is set to debut at the MWC 2009 next week. Now LG also unveils a solar powered mobile phone that will be shown at the MWC 2009.

The LG Solar phone does not seem to be as evolved as the Samsung Blue Earth yet. The product photos show two different models with solar panels integrated on the back. LG just talks very general in the announcement about saving energy and using recycled materials for a greener future. Maybe the company will reveal more details on their solar powered phone offering at the MWC 2009.
