Care to share the safety precautions you've implemented? :lol2:

Nothing out of ordinary. Using the phone as normal. Just never charge overnight or leave the phone beside the bed like listen to spotify to sleep. Using iPhone for that now.

I have that thought for the past 2 days too. Until i kept phobia what if my phone suddenly caught fire in the crowded lift during lunch. What if my phone explode during peak hours in the train. What if it's suddenly have flames when I'm driving. So, I change back to my note5 and wrap note7 keep in box.

Wow, you are being too paranoid I guess? tongue.gif well, we never know, always good to take precausion. If you really have those thoughts then I guess what you did is the right thing to do.

However, a forummer here has mentioned in the previous thread that there was a case where a Note 7 exploded while it was on idle and was not plugged to an external power source.

Hence, leaving your phone alone may not be safe, depending on where you place it

Please don't explode in my pants pocket!

Galaxy Note 7 recall: F.A.Q.
Wait, what happened again?

Samsung has discovered an issue with the battery of the Note 7 units it has shipped so far. By Samsung’s count, the issue has caused at least 35 incidents where the Note 7 dangerously overheated or caught fire while charging, or soon after charging.

The problem is estimated to affect one device in every 42,000 units. Samsung says it shipped around 2.5 million Galaxy Note 7 units so far, so if the estimate is correct, only a few dozen phones sold worldwide are at risk.

Samsung is recalling every Note 7 unit it has shipped and sold so far out of an abundance of caution.

This sounds bad. Should I be worried?

If the “one in every 42,000 units” estimation is correct, the risk of your Note 7 being defective is very, very low. While it’s good to be cautious, there’s little reason to be worried about your phone exploding, catching fire, or even breaking.

Why do phones even catch fire or explode?

Smartphones (and other modern electronic devices) from all manufacturers have been known to catch fire, usually while charging (often through a third-party cable or charger). These incidents are relatively rare, but with hundreds of million units being sold every year, they are bound to happen occasionally.

that's why we want fast and proper action from samsung and its pre-order to lay out the exchange mechanism... all parties also not properly communicated... somemore exploding is a serious issue, all parties like berlengah lengah take their own sweet time, treating customer like idiot.....

i also want to keep it aside, but what u want me to do? i dont have spare phone anymore... are u telling me to spend another hundreds to buy a spare phone use for one month while putting note7 in drawer? come on, not all ppl rich like someone having multiple phones.

iPhone 7 Plus Jet Black probably will be my first iPhone. Haha!

Samsung Galaxy Note7 and LG V20 both removed from my wanted list now. Oops

Jet black will scratch easily. Apple advise to use the phone with case.
