nope..am expecting some sort of email like last round but not yet...
No update even for unit bought from SME one as well.

Previously during 1st recall, many choose to stay positive and enjoyed the second time unboxing a new Note 7.

For daredevils this time round, if the news of deadline to return is indeed end of the year, you can actually use another 3 months (at your own risk), enjoy the exclusive phone which only 8k sold in Malaysia, and still get a full refund after using 3 months. Not too bad huh....

S7 have superior camera, display, fingerprint scanning speed, screen responsiveness and more.

Only good thing about iPhone is the performance and optimization of OS (I doubt processor plays a bit part here, don't think A10 Fusion is any faster if it is running Android), also the 3d touch which never once I've seen anyone using it.

Despite all of that, I'm still getting an iPhone 7 just because of the speed since I mostly play games on it, and the NVMe storage just makes everything load ridiculously fast...

Until Android finally changed to the rumored Andromeda OS, future Snapdragon or Exynos chipset finally focuses more on Single-Core performance, Samsung using their SSD technology on smaller NVMe for smartphones... I will change to Android by then.

i always think java is the one to blame for android, not those android phone maker hardware is on par with iPhone, just that java in android is expensive in terms of memory, in real world i believe java developer will argue on this

if the deadline is really until 31st December then it will be a plus point for me..at least to observe few more phone launch before deciding.. really headache now so many choices..

That is why I talked about switching to the rumored Andromeda OS, which is a merge of Android and Chrome OS, and Chrome OS is based on C as well.

Many have reported that Google will be ditching Java entirely for Andromeda OS, sadly they didn't say a single thing about it in the Google Pixel event...

I'm only here to check if the whiners are still whining now that Samsung has agreed to give an RM300 cashback for those opting for S7 Edge (plus you get to keep the freebies too. kbye

Hopefully Sen Heng deadline is 31 Dec as well.

is it Samsung confirm will call us before we proceed to return N7? i havent receive any call from Samsung. thanks.

My guess about what Samsung going to do with the Note series:

Samsung is thinking about discontinuing the Note series for a long time and Note 7 gave rise the opportunity to do so. They will discontinue Note series, and focus on S series as flagship. It is very costly to own two flagship models (technically three flagship designs, S7 w/o Edge, S7 Edge, Note 7), and the difference between S series and Note is the SPen and one or two features more. In fact, S series outsells Note series 3:1. Yet, Note gets the best features that are not available to S series, e.g. iris scanner. It does not do justice to the larger market share S Series owners. If Note series is discontinued earlier, S series would get iris scanner in the S7 already. Just that previously, Samsung do not have good reasons to kill Note and anger loyal Note brand users.

Samsung next move probably will be S8 Edge and S8+ w/ SPen. Face it, edge screen does not go well with SPen.

So possible timeline launch for S8 Edge will be February, then S8+ w/ SPen before Apple 10th anniversary iPhone 8 launch.

good news. now can hold till year end

I've been wondering, how to access my Samsung Notes other than through the phone? Is there a desktop app or website to login?

It's not like Google Keep, where I can login through its website.

I use the screen off memo quite a lot, without Note7, it's gonna be quite hard to move on

Received an email from MV Samsung for the exchange / refund but it doesn't say any due date nor does it mention 31 December 2016 on the email itself.

Courts deals the same like SME as in Samsung website. Only Telcos will deal differently I guess due to the plan they offered.

Live Chat with them just now regarding second hand Note 7 can refund or not , i told her i have original receipt but the name of the receipt not my name , she told me dont worry , i can get full refund also

Don't think so. In the coming 1 year, technology will be updated. Maybe no longer use S-pen to write. Just eyeballs roll up and down, left and right, will be equivalent to writing on the screen.

It's written in the FAQ at official Samsung website if I'm not wrong.

Anyone can access their official announcement at their webpage??

Plan to keep until S8

I'm writing a lengthy mail to convey my dissatisfaction to the mail someone shared before (so called direct to the CEO office). I'm thinking it would be a good idea, to have everyone who agrees to it, to cc all of you in the e-mail, together with all our IMEI (to prove that we're genuine owner) and even cc some press or whatever you all can suggest. It might not change anything now, but you never know, who knows we get something from the next launch. You can privately PM me if interested.

For those not interested, no need kepoh here and there la, no need flame me, after all, if there's 1% chance we get something, and if we did get something, everyone benefit from it. You no need to do extra work.
