Samsung TVs will have solar-charging remote controls in 2021

The company says that the solar-powered remote control will help “prevent waste from a projected 99 million AAA batteries over seven years.” Of course, you could help mitigate that by using rechargeable batteries in the first place, but a solar-powered remote control would at least reduce dependency on them. Samsung has said it’s also taking steps to increase eco-friendly packaging in 2021. 

The Solar Cell Remote Control will come with all Samsung TVs in 2021.
