Samsung India has launched a new solar-powered enabled Solar Guru (Guru E1107) GSM based-network phone exclusively in India. The low-end Solar Guru will hit the open market in next fifteen days at a price point of Rs 2,799. Apart from solar charging, it has a display size of 1.52-inch, 1MB memory and 800mAh battery.

Sunil Dutt, Country Head, Mobile Business, Samsung India, said, "As of now we are importing Solar Guru from Korea. However, we will soon start the production locally at Noida factory, which has the capacity to produce one million phones in a month. We are planning to position the product in rural areas, and targeting those users who have less talking hours, and face power supply problems. The phone has a dual option of solar and electronic charging as well."

The Samsung Solar Guru (Samsung Guru 1107) is priced at Rs. 2799. Following its introduction in India, the Solar Guru will be launched in various markets including Europe, Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and Latin America in June 2009.
