Samsung awarded for consistent sustainability leadership by US EPA
Recently, Samsung America received two awards from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in recognition of its continued environmental leadership and innovation. These honors include an 8th consecutive Gold Tier Award for Samsung’s leadership in responsible recycling of e-waste and a new Sustainable Excellence Award.
Samsung has won the EPA SMM Gold Tire Award for the eighth year in a row, recognizing our excellence in e-waste collection across the United States. The company collects and recycles an average of 100 million pounds of e-waste a year in the US. And Samsung has an aggressive goal of adding 500,000 tons of recycled plastic to our products worldwide by 2030.
In addition to the legacy of our SMM innovations over the years, the EPA Sustainable Excellence Award recognizes Samsung’s SolarCell Remote, which was launched in early 2021 and is designed to help reduce battery waste and close the loop on plastic waste.
The innovation currently available with Samsung 4K and 8K QLED (Neo, Q80A, Q70A, Q60A) and MicroLED TVs – eliminates the disposal of 99 million AA batteries and is expected to eliminate 5,840 tons of GHG over a seven-year period.
What’s more, in January 2022, Samsung unveiled the breakthrough in the second generation of its solar cell remote, which can now power devices such as Wi-Fi routers from radio frequencies. The remote is also included in more Samsung products such as new Samsung TVs and home appliances, all aimed at disposing of more than 200 million AA batteries from landfills.

Samsung’s April 2024 update is reportedly bricking Galaxy Z Fold 3. A user reported on the Korean version of Samsung’s community that this smartphone was stuck in recovery mode after triggering the installation of the F926NKSU2HXD2 firmware.
The problem seems limited as I haven’t found many reports regarding the same. At the same time, the comments section of the source post also lacks similar feedback from consumers. Still, I recommend you not to install the HXD2 firmware on your Galaxy.
Samsung has recently launched Samsung Wallet in its home ground. We’ve seen a heavy number of Samsung Pay users switching to Wallet for advanced payments and mobile ID features. Notably, the firmware update also brought Samsung Wallet Mobile ID integration for the Fold 3.
Apart from the Wallet upgrade, the firmware brings the April 2024 security patch. Samsung may have also released HXD2 to the Galaxy Z Flip 3 in South Korea. The same firmware was started rolling out to the Galaxy Z Flip 4, however, there are no reports from consumers in the community.
While the smartphone is stuck in recovery mode, the only way left is to wipe the data. Wiping data will lead the user to lose access to all the personal data that was not backed up. Also, there will be a lot of hurdles after manually resetting the device such as logging in via the trusted device.
We will update you on the matter!
