First Iphone released
The first iPhone was released on January 9th, 2007. There was the lead in the wiring of the first iPhone that was taken out in later years because it was potentially dangerous to the iPhone users. A fun fact about the iPhone is that it was the first smartphone ever created and helped base the idea of the smartphone we have today. -
The first Samsung iPhone was released
Samsung GT-I7500 Galaxy was released on June 29, 2009, and it was the first smartphone that Samsung created. I couldn't find the elements in this phone but I'm sure Samsung has made many improvements by now. -
iPhone 6 was released
The iPhone 6 was released on September 19, 2014, and I chose this specific model because it had a lot of information on the elements in the phone. There is gold, silver, copper, and tungsten in the micro-chip. The case was made out of aluminum but now it also has glass because of the wireless charging. A fun fact is that this is the iPhone 6 was the first iPhone to have a bigger size. -
The Google Pixel 4A is also going to be released soon
The Google Pixel 4a will also be released this November with the iPhone 12. I failed to mention in the last event that there is the new 5G connection which all new phones will be released with. I think it's pretty much like the last google pixel from what I could find except better camera and 5G connectivity. Unfortunately, I could not find an environmental report on the Google Pixel 4A. -
