Can't believe how awesome the phone really looks without the casing. When bought didn't really pay much attention to it, quickly put on SP and casing. After 1st recall didn't use SP found the screen so awesome. Now without casing it's a real beauty.

Since we been talking about the refund and return so much. can we share a bit of personal experience here? Set aside the exploding problem.

I am not a Sammy fan boy. I always try different phone. From day 1, motorola, siemen, alcatel, sony ericsson, LG, samsung, Nokia, XiaoMi, Lenovo, HuaWei, Asus, HTC. I likes to play with different interface/UI to enjoy different user experience.

This is so far the Best Phone i have owned. Nice handling, not too heavy, nice camera, loud speaker. Of course there will always be room for improvement.

1. I have some issue with the speaker being place at the bottom. i like using my pinkie finger to support the phone and the pinkie sits right on top of the speaker
2. Edge glass. so hard to draw on the edge of glass.
3. Can be faster (greedy)

BTW, i turn off iris scanner since yesterday which i feel the phone always somehow feel a tiny bit warmer then a machine cold feel since i turn on iris scanner. maybe just paranoid?

Samsung offers $100 credit to swap your Note 7 for another Galaxy phone
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-offe...er-galaxy-phone

With the brand damage caused by not one but two recalls, Samsung is offering incentives to Note 7 customers in the U.S. to keep them loyal to the Samsung brand. Anyone with the now canceled phone can claim $100 bill credit if they choose another Samsung smartphone, compared to just $25 if they choose another brand or a refund.


yes, this is the right way to keep ppl within the brand.

if offered... i might just grab another Samsung phone as replacement... but alas... we should be happy if SME don't botch this recall.

agreed on point 1 and 2... personally, i feel curved edges is really useless. might look nice but not practical on phones.

I am not a Sammy fan boy. I always try different phone. From day 1, motorola, siemen, alcatel, sony ericsson, LG, samsung, Nokia, XiaoMi, Lenovo, HuaWei, Asus, HTC. I likes to play with different interface/UI to enjoy different user experience.

This is so far the Best Phone i have owned. Nice handling, not too heavy, nice camera, loud speaker. Of course there will always be room for improvement.

1. I have some issue with the speaker being place at the bottom. i like using my pinkie finger to support the phone and the pinkie sits right on top of the speaker
2. Edge glass. so hard to draw on the edge of glass.
3. Can be faster (greedy)

BTW, i turn off iris scanner since yesterday which i feel the phone always somehow feel a tiny bit warmer then a machine cold feel since i turn on iris scanner. maybe just paranoid?
*
Yes I wish they can trigger their on-ear speaker to full speaker like iPhone 7 does in the next generation but so far it's the best Android phone in 2016. No doubt.

Agree point 1 & 2 also. Huge bezel had its function beside looking awkward.

am seriously considering if the refund is not inclusive cancel the contract plan cause switching to lower grade phone that will be obsolete in few months time is really dumb. nothing compares well to the note7.

As much as I love the phone, I really think not worth the risk to keep the phone - risk of no updates, being forcibly shut down or catching fire.

It's very "picky". OnePlus officially says USB OTG is not supported but ends up working with SOME of them.

i used s1 & note 1, then iphone until now.
using a spare note 5, seriously thats why it doesnt attract me for any model before s7 edge.
even the note 5 im using now, i feel its not a very good user experience compare to iphone (in terms of the interaction and touch of the screen), i also accidently press the back or touched the screen, its indeed very bad user interaction experience, for more than 6 years, still no improve, then i try s7, so much better, thus assuming the note 7 should go the same.

What I meant was that the phone would be kept in the drawer and powered down, not used. Right now, I still have yet to power down my phone. Feels sad to power it down. Did so once last time, this round, will wait a bit longer.

might not be good idea to leave in drawer.

if you have those metal moon cake tin... put inside there...

else, if go up in flames, stuff in your drawer might fuel the fire.

I am planning to return it and swap with a Samsung S7 Edge. Hopefully, there is a 64GB version available.

Kinda sad that Note 7 has to be discontinued as I really like this phone.

Samsung offers $100 credit to swap your Note 7 for another Galaxy phone
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-offe...er-galaxy-phone

With the brand damage caused by not one but two recalls, Samsung is offering incentives to Note 7 customers in the U.S. to keep them loyal to the Samsung brand. Anyone with the now canceled phone can claim $100 bill credit if they choose another Samsung smartphone, compared to just $25 if they choose another brand or a refund.

yes, this is the right way to keep ppl within the brand.

if offered... i might just grab another Samsung phone as replacement... but alas... we should be happy if SME don't botch this recall.

wah... that's abt rm800... i think if this is really offered in MY, i might just grab a mid range Samsung to last me till the next Note or whatever they will call it.

I'm willing to take the risk for the s pen.. But wouldn't wanna hurt anyone around me. Might go paranoid in a long run if I keep using it. Haha.. I can't use any phone without s pen... And my note 5 is shit compared to 7. Most probably will get s7 edge to keep the feeling still using note 7 and use note 5 when I wanna draw something. Haha

Guys, I would like to ask for opinion.
Previously i bought pre-order S7edge at RM2479.20. Used for about 5 months then sold it at RM2200, and pre-order Note 7 at RM2879.10
Now have to refund Note 7 and get back money.
Would you choose to buy back S7edge again? (cheapest i can find right now RM2500+) Or take the refund money and look for other brand?
If other brand, my current choice will be either 7 plus or OP3.

I still can't understand why SME so stubborn and not do something to the pre-order owners. They don't really have to compensate in cash, it's really a good business strategy and service recovery to just offer some cash rebate like some countries do for any Samsung phone. I supposed the high price of their phone is contributed by high marketing cost too, the hardware cost should be quite reasonable. Just offer RM 500 to RM 1000 off the flagship phone la, why so stubborn and want people to switch to other brand. Don't think they make any losses with a couple of hundred discount, and they get to retain the loyal customers too

Only if SME offer you huge discount on the s7e replacement.

5 - 6 months ago, you bought it for 2.5k. Now you wanna get it for that same price again? not to say that it's not good but you know as well as everyone else that the price of s7e is about to reach the end of the level or cliff that its on. Very VERY soon that price is gonna go down for sure.

Very true la, after all, only 8k sold. Maybe 80% hardcore fan, that's only left about 6k. Then they know maybe 20% will still buy S6 or other Samsung phone, so left 5k. Then out of these 5k, I guess more than half will forget this fiasco after a year and will still buy their next note (or other name whatever they call it), as Malaysian are very forgiving and will still support them. So left like how many who are damn pissed and will never support Samsung again? Not many. So they take it very lightly. No need do any service recovery, ppl still buy

Can foresee this upcoming 17th, a lot of angry customer at the Service outlet or sales outlet. All those youtuber wannabe better get ready and be there on hand to witness the chaos.  bruce.gif

I feel no point we vent our anger at the outlets, they can't do anything actually. It's all about the stupid SME

Only if SME offer you huge discount on the s7e replacement.

5 - 6 months ago, you bought it for 2.5k. Now you wanna get it for that same price again? not to say that it's not good but you know as well as everyone else that the price of s7e is about to reach the end of the level or cliff that its on. Very VERY soon that price is gonna go down for sure.

That's what i'm thinking. Getting a S7edge now is not a good deal. rclxub.gif

I still can't understand why SME so stubborn and not do something to the pre-order owners. They don't really have to compensate in cash, it's really a good business strategy and service recovery to just offer some cash rebate like some countries do for any Samsung phone. I supposed the high price of their phone is contributed by high marketing cost too, the hardware cost should be quite reasonable. Just offer RM 500 to RM 1000 off the flagship phone la, why so stubborn and want people to switch to other brand. Don't think they make any losses with a couple of hundred discount, and they get to retain the loyal customers too

They worry get pressure from the press..from the government.. from the owner (they might have rally in U.S if didn't solve the crisis nicely.. tongue.gif)

But back to SME here... they jus like..who cares... press didn't ask me..government also cant do anything to me.. owner? wat can you all do? dun playplay la.. i refund u is the best d.. so you all diam diam take it...dun so many pattern... 1year after you all still will come back to buy samsung...(personal feeling from 1st N7 motherboard burn till now)

1 word: Disappointed.

Update on Galaxy Note7

Samsung Electronics Singapore announces remedy options for Galaxy Note7 customers in Singapore, following its advisory for Galaxy Note7 customers to power down and stop using the device.

Singapore customers will be able to exchange their Galaxy Note7 for another device, with a refund of the price difference between devices. Alternatively, they may return their Galaxy Note7 for a refund.

Samsung is in close discussions with telecommunication operator and retail partners, and details on how Galaxy Note7 customers can go about the exchange or refund will be provided soon. All Galaxy Note7 customers are urged to take up the options when these are made available to them.

Samsung is also looking into remedies for Galaxy Note7 customers who purchased the Samsung Concierge service.

Consumers can call 1800-SAMSUNG (7267864) for further assistance.

Looks like can return Samsung accessories, but I didn't keep the receipt since the box itself is only required for warranty.

Hopefully can use credit card statement as proof of purchase as in other countries.

generally from SME seems ok. now to see if the telcos play ball and include termination of contract as part of the refund or not.

also, holy crap for those who are not the original purchasers but buy as second hand as it seems like there's going to be hoops for you to jump from.

Guys, I would like to ask for opinion.
Previously i bought pre-order S7edge at RM2479.20. Used for about 5 months then sold it at RM2200, and pre-order Note 7 at RM2879.10
Now have to refund Note 7 and get back money.
Would you choose to buy back S7edge again? (cheapest i can find right now RM2500+) Or take the refund money and look for other brand?
If other brand, my current choice will be either 7 plus or OP3.
*
I'd go for OP3, 7 Plus is fine but you need fork out large chunk of money compared to OP3.

samsung already did their best for us.

dont compare others country with us, this is malaysia, u cant expect every one are being treating the same, their currency and management is different.

for the accessories wise, i have no idea, this can consider is a unfortunate to customer.

i did invest some in note 7. but luckily is not as much as some of the forumers here.

you can choose not to pre-order, all of these are a tragedy. no one wanted it, include samsung as well.

they even loss much more than us..

haha..

malaysia customer, difficult to fulfill..

go to ATM print statement, what they want is just a paper that contain your bank account number and your name.

or go to counter ask to print a statement..

your account book? letter statement? estatement? anything..

The purpose of bank statement is to ensure the bank account provided is valid, so that the money can be credited into our account without any mistake.

I think the problem here is manufacturers really need to find safer, more energy dense batteries - I have a feeling that we have reached the limits of lithium ion batteries. It's even scarier that my laptop battery has a battery capacity that is even smaller than the Note5. icon_idea.gif

Essentially the problem is Samsung attempts to go for a non-compromise design (adds water/dustproofing, SD expansion, curved screen... and making the device even narrower sweat.gif ) and little they didn't realize they are messing with physics. Eventually physics began to rear its ugly head and the battery literally combusts into flames. sweat.gif

$25 voucher, $100 credit, free high end earphone, etc.. nada..

even Thai and Viet get better goodwill offers..

if any phone can be as good as note 7 or similar to samsung future offerings, bye bye SME..

There are already a lot of new battery technology few years ago that can replace Lithium Ion, some even can charge in few seconds to have hours of battery life, and some don't even wear out, nor explodes.


One of the example...

It still takes time for them to be "mainstream", we will have to wait.

SME doesn't said anything about Note7 screen crack warranty coverage.

In another words, they are taking it back from consumer. Crap.

How about return the phone with crack screen?lol

Is that so?? Well then just hope we get Nougat 7.1 after that in a short while, since the latest version (which is 7.1) features performance boosts that makes Android as smooth as iOS.

May be time to give SME a lesson ...

I am waiting Maxis announcement then decide ...

Just now have wrote to them with a suggestion:

1. Continue with existing contract (so less 2 months)

2. Full refund

3. And then purchase an Iphone 7+ 128/256 from them at Contract Price with cash top up if not enough.

Really surprised that it has come to this and even more horrified that sme, especially SME has chose to treat us this way. Worst of the lot compensation among all countries. As if we hadn't have enough bad treatment from the guy with the new app

But for me I think it's fair enough. Am not sure if other countries get as much freebies as us?

is everything also wrong.

samsung didnt force you to pre-order with a pointing gun on your head.

you can choose not to pre-order, all of these are a tragedy. no one wanted it, include samsung as well.

they even loss much more than us..

haha..

malaysia customer, difficult to fulfill..

Understand what you mean but they seem trying their hardest not to give replacement set. When I go ask, they need go to original store exchange with original owner even with receipt. At least that's how I feel.

If they are really sorry about this situation they should've exchange with no question asked hmm.gif Not bashing or anything but simply voice out my opinion.

After much consideration, I have placed my order for OP3 in lieu of the replacing the N7 with the S7E. Since the S7E is priced closely to the N7, with the features that S7E provides, I'm not happy with downgrading to something pricey with "missing" features.

Also figured that this is an opportunity for me to try other Android phones cause I've been using Samsung ever since Note 1. Have not regretted anything at all but perhaps this will be a good time for me to have a feel of what other Android devices offer. 6 GB of RAM priced below RM2k seems like good bargain. Will stash the differential sum from the refund to get the new S8 or other variants in late 2017.

If I were to chart a graph on my feelings towards N7, I have arrived at the Acceptance point in Stages of Grief. Anger has almost subsided, learning how to accept that it's truly time to move on. With that said, my heart still aches. bye.gif cry.gif

personally speaking dont think current iphone plus version handling good, after i use my N7, although my 6S is primary phone, N7 is secondary... N7 handling is too much better than iPhone 7 plus, bigger screen and width is just nice compare to iPhone plus

You got that right. The N7 is lighter, smaller, slimmer and has a larger screen compared to the Iphone 7 Plus. The screen is also much better. It would be a no brainer to buy the Iphone 7 Plus now.

Same dillema as well..If you factor in the S-Pen factor you can only go back to Note 5 but the rest of the spec is definitely a step back..

1+3 bo stock and Webe still didnt certify that phone vmad.gif mad.gif I need one phone from Webe's certified list but all the options now feels like a downgrade.. S7E is close but to pay that kind of price for something that was released 6 mths ago.. ranting.gif

Honestly, to me it's not really worth unless you really need a phone now. S8 if predict correctly, will be out sometime early next year which is another few more months. I am sure Samsung will do something unexpected to S8 in order to get back some customers. So maybe a refund (sell off those freebies or retain it for future Samsung device) would be a choice for me.

Well, well.. as usual, Malaysians are rather opportunistic than being concerned about the possibility of mishaps if they really encounter exploding batteries with their brands new phone. RM1k off S7e? LoL... and then they will go and sell it for RM800 gain.

I think consumers as well should take precautions when charging with non original chargers. Use quality powerbank like xiaomi.

Didn't know Samsung Note 7 issue can have impact to Korea economy.

Samsung Electronics recently scrapped production of the Galaxy Note 7 after a recall in the wake of several of the smartphones catching fire after charging. Bank of Korea Governor Lee Ju-yeol said that the electronics giant’s cancellation of one of its flagship phones could affect the economy, although the bank needed more time to assess the situation, according to Bloomberg.

“Samsung’s problems were calculated into Thursday’s revisions to the BOK’s economic forecasts that include growth and inflation rates, he said, but the bank was not able to reflect the most recent changes because of time constraints,” according to Reuters.

The issues at Samsung and a strike by automobile workers contributed to a drop in shipments of electronics and vehicles for the month of September, wrote Capital Economics’ Asia economist Krystal Tan in a note to clients.

And a BMI Research team argued on Thursday that they “expect Korean exports to face persistent headwinds following the fallout from safety issues surrounding Samsung’s flagship Note 7 smartphone.”

Same here. I think nothing came closer to Note 7. Fruit phone is too expensive but of course some argue that the resale value is good. But I don't really fancy the famous iTunes. I guess I just need to wait for the next Samseng beast.

Whether are you satisfied or not with whatever SME has to offer currently, please be saint, have good EQ and not make a big havoc (eg. Scream & shout at the counter staffs/*&%@#) during the refund/exchange. They are also taking orders from their bosses only, NOT the decision maker.
I personally witness many of such cases which I really felt pity for the staffs.

Agree! But sometimes I think human being human, they show their expression in order not to place feeling in their heart. To the counter staff, I hope they don't take this very deeply. For the customer, do control your anger though, yes, counter staff has done nothing wrong.

I agreed on do not take it on the counter staff. Won't say the same to tele-customer service tho. A lot of the times i was not angry, but i noticed, in several occasions, when you raised your voice over the phone, you will get the result you want. Instantly. Thus nowaday I act nasty on the phone. sometimes.

Yes I understand the frust part too. I used to be a person like that but now I will remind myself to always tell the CS I don't meant to be angry with them but it's their company that I'm mad at. Always end the conversation by telling them not to take it personally. So calm down people!

Yes, all of us would definitely get frust as we pay so much but in the end getting so much inconveniences. Maybe more people should follow you by ending the conversation with "don't take it personally".

totally depends on luck, I guess. I had a note 2 which last me for good 2 years and the note 2 i have hand down to my office boy and he is still using it. my friend who owned a note 3 and was complaining since day 1.
when i got my 1st N7, i used smart switch / auto apps transfer to move from Z3 to N7, some of the apps are incompatible and my N7 keeps restarting every few secs. I cant turn it off, cant reach fast enough for factory restart, the button cache clearing also no use, thus i contacted samsung live chat and send my phone to the nearest SC immediately. (now think of it the phone was pretty warm luckily it didnt explode). Samsung eventually contacted me to pick up my new replaced N7 1 week later. Then i got called to surrender my new replaced N7 due to 1st global recall. and I opt for J7 loan unit, and get my replacement N7 1+ week later. now i am on my 3rd N7, which i suppose to surrender pretty soon. i switched to 5 diff phones within 1 month. biggrin.gif

I am hoping maxis can cancel my zerolution since I have no intention of taking s7e... willing to wait for other phone next year.. what a waste of casing, additional usb type C cable....

As for me I will go for the full refund and never take S7E since I use and give to my partner to use it. Got the Ip7 + just now and will use cheapo Mi Max until they launch a new Note...first time no Sammy to play with. Went to see the A9Pro and it nearly the same of Mi Max minus the price of course.

Got the Ip7 + just now and will use cheapo Mi Max until they launch a new Note...first time no Sammy to play with. Went to see the A9Pro and it nearly the same of Mi Max minus the price of course.

Nearly the same? I thought a9 amoled screen alot better than mi max......used to hv xiaomi note which consider xiaomi flagship once price rm1,549.....but really cannot beat a9 pro screen.....don think cheapo series mi max can come close to a9 pro screen

All other dualsim phone including beast/top notch Note7 only support single single sim1 in 4g/3g; sim2 only in 2g.

Dedicated memory card slot some more...not hybrid dualsim tray.

Thats pretty great advantage

Would you buy back S7edge if you are in this situation like me?

it depends on why u sold off the s7edge... dun like it, too small, etc...?

if you have negative impressions about it, then no point. if it was just the temptation of a better device (note7), then i might consider... though the pricing isn't that good.

based on price itself (more expensive than when you sold it), i think i'd just stick with oneplus 3 until next year and wait for either s8 or note8 (or whatever it's called).

update 1:
just read the exchange details... well, ok also to go for exchange since can get rm300... smile.gif

Reason I don't want to exchange in China is the missing of Google Apps. That's why making a trip back to KL will be last resort. Who knows they end Note 7 now. Not too sure if refund can be done in China. Previously exchange is allowed.

There is lot of difference between A9pro and mimax
A9pro wins in build quality, display quality, battery life ( for me 13-14 hours SOT vs 10-11 on MiMax), overall performance, full dual sim and additional slot for ext SD card
MiMax s simply cheap budget alternative but 9.9/10 one must reflash firmware for especially 64,128gb as comes with custom vendor rom w tons of bloatware n ad popping stuffs. Local set only 32gb which is global rom without such nonsense. I only like it for its bigger display of 6.4 inch
Get the A9 pro if is in your budget - around rm1.6k with discount codes from Lazada n Gemfive.

Purchases from Telco are usually lower than RP due to contract bundle. Do you guys think such purchases will be eligible for RP refund?

There is lot of difference between A9pro and mimax
A9pro wins in build quality, display quality, battery life ( for me 13-14 hours SOT vs 10-11 on MiMax), overall performance, full dual sim and additional slot for ext SD card
MiMax s simply cheap budget alternative but 9.9/10 one must reflash firmware for especially 64,128gb as comes with custom vendor rom w tons of bloatware n ad popping stuffs. Local set only 32gb which is global rom without such nonsense. I only like it for its bigger display of 6.4 inch
Get the A9 pro if is in your budget - around rm1.6k with discount codes from Lazada n Gemfive.

A9pro sounds like a very decent interim replcacement...till s8 or n8 or whatever. but....but...no notification led is really a big turnoff!

why samsung u so kiamsiap, led light cheap stuff also u exclude **shakes fist** vmad.gif

SME announced refund/ exchange process...

i think they are kinda fast this time around...

my impression. it's OK in the sense that i think it's like the minimal thingy they do. if they want, i believe they could do more, but well, even as it is... ok la...

i guess they know there's a good chance many of these pre-orders are probably scalpers anyway and not fans... so maybe that's why the compensation isn't something that would make me really happy.

but ya... from what i can see posted on the SME site... it's ok la... i have no issues to pick with it.

just dem... i threw away my dem receipts just 2 weeks back la... i still have the SP boxes... i wonder if they will accept... i bring the SP boxes back to them.

will i recommend friends to Samsung? after this fiasco, the things we all had to go thru... and just the bare minimum compensation, i'd probably advice ppl to consider something else. there are other good and cheaper brands out there... unless mati2 mau guna s-pen la...

agreed, most probably will recommend china brand since their offerings are 1/2 price and comparable in specs..

even if it's possible i dont think its a wise to take up on that offer. all contract duration * monthly fees should higher than the difference between your subsidized device price and RRP.

AND you'll be tied up to the contract for 2 months meaning no possibility of note 8 on contract if there's a good offer!

i'd rather get refund for the subsidized price and cancellation of contract, at least in the future i got more options.

agreed... only reason why i went with telco for note7 is due to the very attractive pricing for a NEW product.

telco bundles for old phones is usually not worth it.

i was doing some research on the phones i could get... and ya... really... other than S and Note series... Samsung somehow will put something really off on their other lines...

as you mentioned... A9... no LED notification (though some are recommending use of apps that will use screen for notification).

and... A series also considered high end... why can't they put wireless charging... hahaha.. i wanna reuse all freebies, if possible.

right now, wireless charging stand becomes a stand for my note2. yup, using it again... wiped and reinstalled my stuff... battery should be coming today... so, i'm all good.

BUT U THINK THOSE CHEAPER CHINA BRAND WILL OFFER BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE THAN SAMSUNG? I USED XIAOMI NOTE 64GB BEFORE AND EVEN UNDER XIAOMI MALAYSIA WARRANTY SEND BACK TO SERVICE CENTER TO REPAIR THE POWER BUTTON WHICH THEIR MECHANIC SAID THERE IS NOT USER FAULT TO DAMAGE THE POWER BUTTON BUT HE CANNOT GET APPROVAL TO PROCEED THE SERVICE AND REPAIR WITHOUT CHARGES .. IT DRAGS AROUND 2 MONTHS AND STILL NOT RESOLVE....WITHOUT LOAN ANY TEMP PHONE TO ME......AND FINALLY FED UP AND I JUST PAY FOR THE REPAIR RM28 WHICH SUPPOSE TO BE UNDER COVER WARRANTY.....( THE PHONE BOUGHT AT RM1,549) MAYBE IS 1/2 OF NOTE 7 PRICE BUT FOR THE LOUSY WARRANTY CLAIM I FEEL LIKE IT'S ALMOST SAME LIKE NO WARRANTY IMPORTED SET.

All china phone i've used, their stock rom suck. Xiaomi...huawei...all suck. Used p9 plus now...cant even installed goal.com apps coz not supported. its small matter, but it just turned me off.

In general, imho, user experience/usability offered by samsung touchwiz esp note, is the best.

Warranty wise, cant comment...never had to go for rma. Thank GOD!

Bro of course I totally agree with you regarding the screen but spec of the phone nearly the same some more it double the price. Mi Max is good web browsing and video too..

I'll not be surprised many here will use until deadline, very soon SME surely will issue a deadline else nobody returns lol. Also because no cases in Malaysia yet and so far the fire/ explosion didn't cause serious injury (correct me if I'm wrong), Malaysians tend to be a little relax and reluctant to give up on the phone

it is a great phone. might be THE phone depending on how you use it. Just sad that it had to go, and we have no choice but to look for the next best thing.

Yes, exchange the phone got better benefit as the screen crack warranty will be transferred over.

But I still think that opt for refund and buy from other online channel can get better offer.

all telco probably put all their resources into this launch and that explains the delayed response on 17th oct.

will hold out and not do anything on 17th october.

will wait for better offer and see as phone is working great with all phone updates switched off and fast charging switched off.

not going to switch to s7/s7edge cause would not have waited till note7 if s7/s7edge was interesting. now especially more so because s8 coming in 2-3 months time.

not going to refund unless telco agree to void contract plan and buy back original flip case. also, hoping that telco or SME give special priority for next iteration of note version by samsung as well.

Still using as well. Risk? what risk? these are all american plot to sabotage the Samsung brand aje... brows.gif

but seriously, none whatsoever issue till now. Replacement unit actually had a better battery life than the 1st ver.. but just the camera macam not very okay aje. Other than that, everything this phone represent is really best of the lot. Really really.. hard to let go. Everything else is just 2nd to it.

From Telco, not sure... but from their store, confirmed can refund. But can't confirmed on the screen protector yet...

Hello, Good morning.

Hilmiah
If you own a Note7 device, please power it down and stop using it.
10:34:28
I"ve read the announcement that the accessories will be able to be refund as well.
10:34:53
Hilmiah
For your information,
10:35:25
Hilmiah
Any original Samsung accessories for

Galaxy Note7 purchased from Samsung

Experience Store and Participating Retail

Partners can be returned for a refund at

place of purchase with proof of purchase.^|

10:35:28
The question is that, will I need to wait until 17Oct to perform the refund for the accessories purchased?
10:35:31
Or I can start the process today?
10:35:50
Hilmiah
You may need to wait until this coming October 17 onwards,.
10:36:19
Hilmiah
Thank you for supporting us throughout the

journey.
10:37:03
Another questions is that the first screen protector that I purchased is already returned with the first recalled, can I refund with the receipt only?
10:37:04
Hilmiah
Regarding that, I"m sorry I"m unable to answer your question because I do not have any information regarding it.
10:37:57
Hilmiah
Please kindly wait for the person in charge

from where you have purchased / collected

the Note7 to call you, and please let them

know regarding that. They will assist you

throughout the matter.
10:37:59
So for the clear view casing, I can return the casing with the receipt to the place of purchase for refund without issue in this case but only the screen protector is unknown yet for now?
10:38:58
Am I right?
10:39:13
Hilmiah
Yes, that is definitely correct.
10:39:45
Thank you for the confirmation.
10:40:21
Hilmiah
I"m sorry for any inconveniences caused.
10:40:25
Hilmiah
You are most welcome.
10:40:31
No one wants this to happen
10:40:41
It"s too bad that I"ve to return the phone. Nothing come close to it now.
10:41:05
Honestly speaking, your second recall is handle better than the first. But there are still a lot of doubts and questions to be answered.
10:42:11
Thank you and have a good day.
10:42:19
Hilmiah
Noted on that.

to be frank, you don't need to be that paranoid. i still charge at least till 90% or fully. still carry it in my pant pockets when need to.

my input for safer use:

1. be much more careful of the phone shock status; avoid banging or dropping (this is most important)

2. if phone needs to be left alone when not physically near it, put it on a relatively safe place that won't spread the burn or burn through

3. you can buy a digital timer switch so that after x amount of hours/minutes, the charging adapter will auto switch off. you can estimate how long it takes to charge X% so you can input into the timer switch so you don't need to manually check on it always and switch it off yourself.

Really wonder if we can.. ask the SC guy to turn a blind eye.. and let us keep it.  devil.gif (come come, minum kopi)

I don't think they will refund you and at the same time let you keep the phone. Definitely they need to return the phone to Samsung, else will have a lot of hanky panky

QUOTE(jrrsim @ Oct 14 2016, 10:21 AM)
very hard to issue deadline la.. if past deadline how?
they can possibly provide incentive to return and if past the deadline then no more incentive..
*
I think sooner or later will still have deadline, else what's the point of the refund. Samsung will preferably want to close the case and get all phone returned to them. If no deadlilne, means I can use until next year when the Note 7 replacement out only I return for refund? Think very unlikely la. For those unable to return due to whatever reason, they of course will entertain, based on case by case basis

Good to hear a lot of people still using..

just be extra careful while charging and usage.. seems like Viet made sets like ours are still 'safe'..

Maybe TS can pin 'precaution steps need to follow if user still reluctant to powerdown N7' at front page..

- never leave charging overnite
- never apply too much pressure on phone while caring etc..
- opt to turn of fast charging
- bla bla bla

at least its a last ditch LYN N7 community effort to ensure everyone's safety..

just me 2 cents

The S7E is not the same value compared to the N7. People keep saying it's the best replacement but that would be probably true due to the curved screen. I refuse to pay as much for a phone without stylus. The Note series has always been a powerhouse because of its functions. Basically the lack of stylus really takes away the entire experience.

I'm still using N7 though my OP3 has arrived. Will be taking my sweet time to run some comparisons and assess how wide the gap is between these 2 phones. At this point in time I still charge and use N7 while it's fast charging. If I were to leave it overnight I will use the wireless charger simply because it doesn't heat up at all.

Disappointed with the available choices and their attitude.

1. Prefer to wait for S8Edge but not given a choice and forced to take S7Edge and no other choice of Samsung phones.
2. Extra 1 year screen warranty only applicable to S7Edge, no compensation for full refund
3. No compensation like US/South Korea where higher compensation is given if stay with Samsung and lower compensation for full refund.
4. No fireproof box mail to us and we need to get back to Point of Purchase at our own expense and inconveniences because of their failure.

We trust them and as loyal customer we get treated like nobody in Malaysia and forced to take limited choices.

Where is their responsibility and care towards affected customers?

All I see is just cut cost measures at their conveniences.

ya, same here. I think just get whatever accessories available and use it on the next Samsung/other brand phone.

Additional accessories (i know some have extra)
1) 2 charger/adapter with USB cables
2) 1 Wireless Charger
3) 1 USB Type C power bank
4) Earphone
5) USB C coverter
6) Sim Eject Tool
7) Limited Edition S-pen (hope can get) brows.gif

I really think Samsung should refund some RM148 for the screen crack warranty from the freebie they gave for first replacement!

I am sure you can keep since the phone is not in production anymore and the S-pen could not fit any other phone if they re used. No harm to try ask for safe keep and as souvenir.

If you cannot wait,

P9 Plus, S7E or iPhone 7 Plus.

theoretically they can't legally shut off without taking some risks. what if the owner is lost in jungle or kidnapped or having emergency and the phone is their only means and somehow the phone is shut out simply because they want to force you to return it?

they can do that when the phone is reported to be stolen but when it is a voluntary recall, it's not all black and white. keyword: voluntary. hence you don't see any legal notices that threatens the existing owners to return immediately. you can see their wording use of the english word "should" littered on their note 7 recall pages.

That might be the case since Snapdragon tends to heat up a lot... remember Snapdragon 810? *cough*

But I don't think it's completely the chipset fault, why aren't other flagships, OnePlus 3 or Axon 7 that uses the same chipset explodes?

Very much agree on that. Way too much premium for something not that particularly premium and innovating.
All i remember was when when cook said "brave" for taking out the headphone jack, I spitted out my drink.. and doubled that when the word "toilet proof" came out... biggrin.gif

But with that being said, I don't mind going to i7 or i7+ IF, thats a big IF, the price is lower or similar to N7.

Very much agree on that. Way too much premium for something not that particularly premium and innovating.
All i remember was when when cook said "brave" for taking out the headphone jack, I spitted out my drink.. and doubled that when the word "toilet proof" came out... biggrin.gif

Not an iPhone fan, so not sure of previous models. But after holding the 7 plus, I really dislike the screen size, width is too broad and hard to hold, Note 7 size is so perfect. Even my friend who's a hardcore fruit fan, for the first time admitted that he prefer Note 7 screen size and the grip. So he ended up with iPhone 7 though he prefer larger screen.

Just got my hands on on the ip7+. Immediately miss my Note 7 screen. Anyway, the speaker from ip7+ is superb. Very loud and crisp. Camera low light is terrible. Hunting to focus and slow.

My friend is having issue with Note 7 and he is in oversea now, something to do with PUK code. Help him to call SME for support, went through the troubleshooting with the CS person over the phone, was put on hold numerous times as well when he is consulting his superior/leader for help. Surprisingly he didn't ask me to shutdown the Note 7 and stop using...
*
If I am not mistaken, PUK code is related to sim card, not the phone. So call the service provider instead of SME.

That might be the case since Snapdragon tends to heat up a lot... remember Snapdragon 810? *cough*

But I don't think it's completely the chipset fault, why aren't other flagships, OnePlus 3 or Axon 7 that uses the same chipset explodes?

Can't be, 820 totally fixed the overheating issues, and we don't hear 810 phones explode.
