You dont need to tell me the benefits of solar power.

Now atMWC 2025weve seen that tech land in a smartphone thanks to Infinix.

The companys showing off a concept unit featuring its new SolarEnergy-Reserving Technology.

Which is, essentially, a solar panel built into the back of your phone.

Granted the tech is limited to 2W charging speeds right now, which is outrageously slow.

Thats generally the idea behind this tech.

Better still, the panels can generate power from indoor and outdoor light sources.

In fact the concept devices at MWC were able to start recharging using an especially-bright flashlight.

Sadly, the flashlight on the back of my phone did absolutely nothing.

Its unfortunate that Infinix isnt planning on selling this phone just yet.
