>The Consumer Product Safety Commission and Samsung are urging owners of Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 to stop using their phones while they work to formalize how a recall will work.
>The warning comes a week after Samsung (SSNLF) announced a voluntary recall of 2.5 million phones worldwide because of a battery problem believed to affect 0.1% of all devices. Some customers reported that their Note 7s caught fire.
>A government recall would outlaw the selling of the phone. In its statement, the agency asked owners of the Note 7 "to power them down and stop charging or using the device" in the meantime. Details on an official recall will come "as soon as possible," the agency said.

There is a pattern.
To be fair, Sammy might have specified a good battery only to have the factory cut a corner or two. Pity they can't blame an external assembler.

Nothing wrong with exploding

Maybe if you know we had removable batteries

In Australia you can't even take the note 7 on the plane because of the martyrdom risk

>yfw samshit owners are literal terrorists
>>
Samsung were pretty notorious for using shit quality capacitors on the power supplies of their LCD displays too. I believe this may be the reason for the shift to external power bricks, form factor aside.
>>
This is actually hilarious. Australia outright banned them from planes.

There's a chance that they'll fuck up the replacements, too. I'll just switch to a s7 edge. Or a different phone completely.

It's actually the models with Korean made batteries that are blowing up. The ones with Chinese made batteries are fine.

It's just coated in lead and melamine, but it shouldn't explode.
>>
>>56524433
If it was that easy Samsung would just be recalling the ones that say made in Korea on back. They're recalling them all probably because they didn't keep a record what phones got what batteries and have no way to tell without opening them.
>>
>>56524477
I wish I could find out for sure. Replacements wont be in for another week or so and I really don't want to go back to a note 5.

at least his Cherokee didn't back up on the owner and pin him against his fence post WHILE it was on fire. KEK

How long until one of these start a fire on a plane? People won't listen to the authorities, they will just continue to use their shitty explosive samsung device.

Say what you will, but I bought a iPhone 6S Plus with 64GB that I got for like $100 bucks with 2 year contract (Galaxy S7 was my other choice, but I did not find as many good deals). I'm normally not the biggest fan of iOS, but after all the shit that happened and needing a decent working phone, I took another chance.

I was really looking forward to the Note 7 as well...I am curious how many people were in the same boat as me.

we shoulda never stopped using lead acid batteries

Apple built those phones. This is all an Apple plot to frame Sammy

Shit nigga I didn't even know there was a note 5.

Glad samshit is exploding benis, i want a phone with a removable battery. Fuck that shiet.
>>
>>56524256
Of course, that's because the chinese know how to make things cheaply.

The koreans try it and half the world explodes.

can confirm, had a monitor shit the bed in 2010 after 3 years of use.

Swapped capacitors and i still use the thing all the time. Samshit likes to cut corners.
>>
Samsung really is a shit when it comes to batteries.

I had two original replacement batteries for my S4 because it would randomly shut down, lose 50%+ charge on reboot and swollen battery. Same thing happened once with my S5.

My gf had the same with her old S3 but that was 3 years old so the battery had plenty of cycles already.

More like burning edge performance.

>>56524270
If you bought your Note 7 in China you have a Chinese model.

If you didn't then you don't.
