Not seen any green phone range from Nokia. Sony Ericsson have done well with the Elm and Hazel especially the Elm being a good seller

Eldar Murtazin, though biased recognized this on his review of the SE Elm. The Elm I think is priced quite high when it was launched in Russia :

"In addition, the device is positioned as an eco-friendly phone and is part of the GreenHeart series. The latter is another explanation as to why one has to pay extra 30-35 per cent for the functionality offered. Unfortunately for Sony Ericsson, the idea can't find a broad response among the customers who are not willing to spend their cash on eco-friendly devices; Nokia understands that and makes all or nearly all phones so. You can take a model from Nokia and see for yourself that it is as eco-friendly as the Elm or even better than that. In a word, all that is none other than a marketing ploy aimed at drawing extra attention and trying to justify the absurd price." :source

Well the Elm is not absurd priced here in Norway. In fact it is quite cheap, about 160 £.

For the functionality it offers, the Elm is very cheap here. About £120 or so.

Another point of Eldar as I see it is that Nokia's handsets are as eco-friendly as the Elm's even though Nokia does not advertise it as such.

@bono

that was very cheap.
