Ya. That was for the recalled units. But now the replacement units (which Samsung claimed that they have changed the battery manufacturer) also caught fire, that's why some people started to doubt about the real root cause. Well, let see what will CPSC and Samsung say after their investigation, which we don't how long it will gonna take....

Yes. The sales already restarted in Korea and US (carrier units). Btw, Note 7 is also on sales in China & Hong Kong.

All should be happening on Note 7 with Snapdragon 820

AT&T and T-Mobile in US have stopped sales of Note 7 and also the replacement unit.

AT&T decision to suspend sales and replacement unit will have a major impact as they are the largest US telco.

my usage pattern... OS not suitable for iPhone7plus. but otherwise, on paper, specs seems impressive.

as for breaking law... if they allow ppl to claim full refund (if they do go put smaller battery), then i don't think they considered as broke law since they are now allowing ppl to claim full refund. but well, hypothetical anyway..

let's see what happens over the next few days.

T-Mobile is second US carrier to halt Galaxy Note 7 sales, giving $25 credit to affected customers

off topic...

from what i understand... this is a thread on a public forum. does not say it's an exclusive club/ group.

anyone is more than welcomed. but one is a non-owner and wanna share some news, please... go check out the last few pages so you're not posting something that was already posted like 5-6 times. that is what some of the more passionate members are upset about. partly coz it's repeat news... and the other bit being their resale value gets hurt.

hypothetical Q...

some of us do use case, skin, etc...

if let's say that somehow you unit catches fire. can Samsung your case/ skin caused heat to build up... and thus, its your fault?

Samsung really having a bad year :/

hoping Samsung would give us a detailed explanation on all these explosion incidents.

Samsung knew that a replacement Galaxy Note 7 exploded and sent a man to the hospital but didn’t say anything

We will be expecting 120% refund.

Add complete seal for Ingress Protection

In the US, some carrier already allow N7 user to exchange to another brand.


* who play GTA here ? Did the developer really make N7 as explosive device in game ?

I hope Samsung take a lesson from these issues and stop pushing unnecessary features like slimmy design with big battery just to make it look cool. I dont mind thick phone as long it is reliable and safe. Samsung just trying too hard with it innovation. As the result, it just turn half baked.

agreed on the slim part. it's not just Samsung. other manufacturers too... i dun wanna be talking to a piece of paper!

and they should get rid of curved edges... at least on note series.

right now... i have been asked to put a metal moon cake box in my car... in case smoke, at least i put inside box and contain whatever fire... **sigh**

Hahahaah! Good one!

It's a mod. Someone made it and added it into the game. Changed the grenade texture skin to the Note 7

not a joke, though... i have been asked to do that. reason being if i throw outside and it burns someone else's car... also not good.

anyway, looks like note7 community in MY might still be just the 4-6k owners...

Throw outside, other car smash it flat, Samsung denies your phone burned first then smashed flat. Better put in metal case and a pair of extra thick oven gloves, retain the evidence.
