Samsung Replenish Reviews
CNET "Sprint's first eco-friendly Android phone offers Earth-consciousness at a very reasonable price."
Engadget "The Samsung Replenish puts its own twist on the eco-phone trend by adding in Android. This is by no means the first time such a smartphone has come to market, but it's the first one to knock on Sprint's door."
Phone Dog "In terms of Android smartphones, the Replenish has a form factor that isn't used very much, though BlackBerry users will feel right at home."
PCWorld "Although you might feel like a better person for buying an ecofriendly phone, the Replenish's specs and features are largely underwhelming."
PCMag "The Replenish's form factor and green aspects are great to see, but the poor-quality screen ruins the experience."
Phone Arena "Happily, the affordable Samsung Replenish SPH-M580 is finally here not only carrying along some environmentally friendly initiatives with its production, but it also brings Android goodness in the form of a portrait style QWERTY device."
