Making cellphones disposable could be a great idea. Meaning that the cellphones will be like your contact lenses, after using for a few days or weeks than you can just dump them into the rubbish bin.
According to Telcoms.com, an unidentified European distributor has made a “test purchase” of 10,000 units of those disposable cell phones from Hop-On, and the company carries the first mission of bringing them into Europe. The disposable cellphone from Hop-On is a pretty low-cost phone that costs around $20. The disposable cellphone doesn’t come with a screen. What it has is only the number keypad and maybe another quick button for you to call the 911.
The disposable phone employs a Texas Instruments chipset and operates on the 900/1800MHz band. There is no further information about when or where the phones will actually be available. But according to the source that the unnamed distributor has made several purchase orders that are set to follow the initial test order. Meaning the phones shall be landing in Europe soon.
Disposable cellphone would be a good idea for students or those who’re exposed to environments where mobile phone theft rates are high. Please note Hop-On’s disposable cellphones allow to print your own branding on it. If you’re a distributor you can make bulk purchase these low-cost phones and distribute them in your own branding.
