A very interesting robot made of old Nokia phones has appeared in Beijing, China. It sits on a bright colorful bench and reads a book (or is it a magazine?). The Nokia Robot is there to deliver an eco-friendly message and to encourage people to lead a low-carbon and green life.
Nokia is exchanging old phones for cinema tickets in Beijing, and the Robot was created to promote this deal. All the donated old mobile phones will then be recycled, and Nokia says no component will be directly reused.
Nokia’s had a hard time recently, but the ecological problems of the modern world have always been in the center of the Finnish company’s attention, and the phones manufactured by Nokia have always been recognized as the greenest phones in the industry. Have a look at this research published by O2 – three out of six “greenest” phones are created by Nokia.
Of course, the Nokia Robot is not a real functional robot – it can’t do anything other than sitting and reading (heh 
). But I really like the idea. I even spent some 10-15 minutes trying to find familiar Nokia phones on the robot (or at least my old phone). Here is another photo of the Nokia Robot — he’s much closer on it. Maybe you’ll find your old phone on it?
