The Motorola i870 was the first phone to utilize an anti-bacterial casing to cut down on illnesses for the user. The i870 was released in October 2005 as part of the flip phone craze, but its advanced technology put it ahead of the standard phone camera of the average cell phone today. You can add wallpapers and other images to your i870 to set your phone apart from others.
