The idea is to reuse old devices. Samsung experts will change them into new smart home tools. For example, an old phone could become a smart home controller. An old tablet might become a digital picture frame. This gives old gadgets a second life.
Samsung wants to cut down on electronic waste. Throwing away electronics harms the planet. Reusing parts is better. This program lets people help the environment easily. Plus, it saves resources needed to make brand-new products.
The take-back events start next month. They will be in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Dallas. Samsung stores will host these events. People can drop off their unwanted Galaxy devices there. Staff will collect them safely.
Samsung encourages everyone to look for old devices at home. People should check drawers or closets. Any unused Galaxy device qualifies. Bringing it to an event is simple. It’s a free service for customers.
The company believes this is important for sustainability. They aim to expand the program later. More cities might be added. Samsung hopes many people will participate. This effort supports a greener future.
