According to the research and improvements that Apple has done on its internal recycling plant which first handles 15 products and can now handle 23 products. It has been noticed that 59 percent of its recycled product consist only of Aluminium as raw material.
Talking about the researched facts 4.4 tons of carbon is emitted per ton of plastic produced every year. By using such fishing nets, the emission can be reduced to 1.1 tons, which is equal to 120-year-old pine’s annual absorption capacity.
According to some environmental strategists and experts, the amount of waste is increasing by 640,000 tons a year globally. Global IT companies can make an effort to recycle more and more waste products and reduce plastic packaging by reducing the plastic packaging material.
It’s very easy to recycle the waste product from the sea as it is already exposed to sea salt and ultraviolet rays because their physical properties are already lost to a large extent.
Apple has included two new recycling bots, Taz and Dave, which can help in mining 2000 tons of metal from the available raw material at a time. Samsung is also overcoming the difficulties that are faced during the innovative regeneration of smartphones, and in the future, you could see a recycled tag on your favorite Samsung phones.

Samsung and Nvidia reportedly completed the on-site inspection of the 5th-generation HBM3E. This is a significant development, but mass production still appears to be pending.
Digitimes reports that Samsung’s 5th-gen HBM3E cleared Nvidia’s on-site inspection. This inspection is viewed as a significant step forward, but mass production of the HBM is still pending.
Samsung and Nvidia continue to collaborate on the development of advanced memory technologies, which are crucial for applications in AI, gaming, and data centers.
Back in August, it was reported that Samsung’s HBM3E passed Nvidian’s tests for use in AI processors. It came as a big relief for Samsung as it has been struggling to compete with SK Hynix.
Recently, it was reported that Samsung’s chip decision is facing a slow pace of recovery growth. Despite the AI surge, the company is failing to grow faster amid intense competition.
Samsung’s One UI 8 must bring Android 16’s Advanced Protection features. Google is reportedly developing new Advanced Protection features that could debut in Android 16, which we want to arrive on Galaxy phones with One UI 8 update.
One UI 7 is based on Android 15, scheduled to enter Beta this year and Public early next year. Galaxy phones will get Android 16 update with One UI 8 update – only if Samsung keeps stuck to its current version strategy.
Google is working to develop Advanced Protection integration for Android 16. The program includes new settings and a new API that’ll allow apps to change their behavior depending on whether users have Advanced Protection enabled.
Android could add Samsung’s Auto Blocker-like features. The feature restricts apps to be installed on Galaxy phones from unauthorized sources. However, you can still sideload APKs by disabling the Auto Blocker from Privacy settings.
Android 16 could allow you to enroll in Advanced Protection through Settings. Once enrolled, you will have to keep your Google Account signed in, and the OS will not allow you to install apps from sources other than Play Store and Galaxy Store.
Mishaal discovered a new patch in the AOSP Gerrit, which refers to a “new Service for Android Advanced Protection Mode.” It will allow apps to see whether Advanced Protection is enabled on-device, and to adjust their behavior accordingly.
A comment on the patch from a Google engineer clarified that the service in question “allows users to enroll into ‘advanced protection’ via Settings, and for apps to check if the user is enrolled” using a new API.
When enabled, Android 16 could require additional authentication if you try to access certain content, like protected files or banking details. Details are unknown, but we expect to see the Advanced Protection added in the Android 16 version.
