Interview clip of the victim from the 1st explosion case in taiwan

This mean America govt is considering to "campur tangan" in this Samsung Note 7 recall plan. According to some reports, Samsung initiated the recall programme in America without reporting themselves to America's CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) in advance. Because Samsung initiated the recall plan in America on their own without consulting with CPSC, the whole incident became ambiguous and not in proper order. At this moment, some retailers & marts in America are still selling Note 7 in the market. Also, not everyone will go for the recall programme, which the most important question pop up: " how many people decided to keep the phone without returning to samsung?". The number may be not huge, but those kind of people do exist. God knows how many numbers of defective Note 7 will still remain in the market after this.

So here come the question, do you wish to see those people bringing possibly defective Note 7 on board? For FAA. the answer is definitely a big NO NO. So FAA released this announcement to show their concern. Before they make the final decision, they will wait and see if CPSC want to take action on this Note 7 case.

I won't be surprised that in future Note 7 will be banned in any flights, if Samsung do not handle this properly.

Mind you. This is not a "I want to scare the crap outta you" kind of thing. This is a fact. We are talking about taking a plane. Not just some random people walking on the street. If something bad happened to your Note 7 in the plane, then good luck to you and the people who sit surrounding you..

First of all, you are wrong by comparing cap ayam phones to Samsung phones in this case. The whole incident has nothing to do with the brand. it's all about safety issue and public awareness

Those cap ayam devices can go onboard because there's no explosion cases being reported. While for Note 7, the explosion news been reported worldwide. See the difference?

It has nothing to do with the brand. They don't care if you device is cap ayam brand or luxury brand. Once the "ka-boom" news was reported and extended to a very high level, then you are in trouble.

When you get to buy Note 7 is not so important anymore. Right now you better hope that Samsung can go through all these hoo-ha in coming months. If not, probably there won't be any Note 7 for you to buy in the future.

That's the saddest part in this country. Other countries people are concerning about their own safety and make sure their rights is protected. Meanwhile in Malaysia, all you guys can think of is when to get the replacement and what is the compensation.

This is kind of expected since not everyone opt for replacement. Some people already lost their faith towards Samsung due to the latest incident. Not to mention those latest devices that coming up lately (eg. LG V20, Iphone 7). It gives people more choices to choose now. The reason why Samsung released Note 7 in August simply because they wanted to avoid those competitors. Unfortunately, they lost the advantage now thanks to the battery-gate.

The biggest contribution to this is Samsung's own mistake. No one should be blamed for this except Samsung itself. Hopefully they can come back with full vengeance in next year.....

Here's today news regarding the " should you bring Note 7 on flight?" issue.

Somehow I think that this is purely Maxis own decision. Not sure why Maxis insist you all to return the phone way before the replacement date. Not to mention that they also need to loan you a back up phone while you are waiting. This is just plain stupid. Wasting time, resources, and money. Makes people doubt about their motive behind this. Any logical reason behind this?

What does fight mode have to do with this? Is this a joke? Anyway, I know you guys love your Note 7 very much. I have no comments about that. What I am doing here is just share the info I found with all the Note 7 users. Sharing is caring. No need to be so sarcastic la bro.

No use my friends. People who don't have issue with Note 7 so far would say it's first world problem, not their problem. No matter what happened in other countries, they would not care about it. Whoever banned Note 7, boycott them!

Joking aside. Seriously....a jeep was exploding due to Note 7!?

Of course they want to hold on first. Eventhough if they already promised they will give you a replacement unit soon, no one know what will happen after this. Launching in Malaysia asap? Rebranding the name and re-launch the product? Pull off the sales completely from the market? Anything can happen.

So far, Samsung Malaysia only promised that you will get a new phone on 29 Sept. But they didn't say when the product will be launching in here. They will have to stop everything first until they get the notice from the HQ, regarding what they plan to do with Note 7 in Malaysia market.

First of all, sorry if you think my post misleading. But what I did was just posting a link and the topic of the article. I didn't even comment any thing on that. I only asked those people who take fight in Australia to take note about thisd. Where got misleading?

Second, yes. My posts were mostly about the bad news regarding Note 7. But did I create those issues in the first place? Again, nope. I just shared the news and info. FYI, I didn't tell people to stop using/buying/jump ship. What I did was just sharing the news. Losing faith to Samsung is one thing, sharing the news is one thing. Please don't mix them up.

Third, I didn't repeat itself. The info I shared in each post were diffferent. They might sound similar, but none of them were repeated.

Fourth, I am chill. What I did was looking at this case from the perspective of a potential buyer.

Last but not the least, I know you guys don't like people to bash your favourite products in your favourite thread. I understand. But since when it's a crime to inform/report the news and facts in here? You don't like the news. You don't like the facts. Fine. You can skip them. But now you guys are asking me to not to post those news? Where's the freedom of speech in here?

LOL. When one is posting good news, you clicked the thumbs up button. When one is sharing bad news and the concerns, you say it's wasting time to do so. Very good.

Btw, I am not a hater. I myself is Note 5 user + potential buyer of Note 7.

So I understand now. Once you masuk this thread, you can only praise, you can only love. You cannot critisize, you cannot express your frustation and disappointment. For god sake. Is this a forum or is it some sort of a private fan club? I am confused now.

Anyway, looks like all my previous sharings and concerns were somehow labelled as hater action. I may stop sharing what I found and leave you guys alone. Should I?

Sigh....

I know, bro. In this real world, nothing is perfect. Just feel a bit weird to know that some people choose to ignore the bads and ugly. Anyway, it's their life, it's their own choice.

Thanks man. Good to know some people in here are supporting my posts and shares. Thanks.

I see. Apologize accepted. Not hard feeling there.

As for your feeling irritating, well, what to do? I myself had high hope on Note 7 as well since the day 1 it launched. Planning to buy it once the blue coral version come out. but who would know that samsung would have done such a serious mistake.... I also feel the pain when I see those bad news. But still, bad things do happen. What we can do is move on and hope for the best. Meanwhile, we still need to give attention to those news because smartphone is a 3C product that we put on our side everyday. The goods and the bads, we must embrace it. Praise the good, critisize the bad. People & companies will only be improved in this way.

I can sense the sarcastic over there.

Anyway, not only this, Oculus VR also took the Note 7 image down from their banner. They also put a small note below saying that Oculus VR users should not attach Note 7 on their gear.

Looks like Samsung India is the most generous one in this matter. A free VR Gear for the delay!
