Such a shame indeed and talk about bad timing! Iphone e might be available first if this thing drags
Solid device but now I will wait to hear more about the battery explosions. Must be serious if everything was recalled . You would think this was tested before the release....

The risk of being an early adopter, I've learnt my lesson too many times over and over. I'm very surprised that such a major issue could happen, usually its something minor relatively minor. Then again, if 10 out of 1,000,000 devices blow up then its better to recall them all than have a mega lawsuit come your way.

I agree. Still such an expensive mistake . Now I read it will take 2 weeks before they start selling again. This means new iPhone will be available. And this is a phone announced in August. I reckon someone will loose their job . Still tempted by this phone but I guess i will hold off - to be sure the battery issue is fully resolved first

Talk about bad timing. I thought it was just that 1 device that blew up? Would be interesting to see how many people opt for a refund against a replacement. If Samsung can get atleast 70% of them to opt for a replacement that would be great. They should throw in a VR for them too as a good will.

Definitely more than 1 blew up, I don't Think Samaung would have halted sales for just one device . Last thing I read was like 42 devices at a million
Apparently the cost of all this is going to be more than 1 billion (hopefully Samaung can recover some from the battery manufacturer)

Oh but it does!
This recall affects Samsung a LOT more than a few measily $10's of millions of dollars in lost sales this quarter ... it's the brand that is affected:
Quality Controls now are less than what they where,
especially since Samsung is NOT mentioning who's making their batteries that are the reason for the explosions/recall:
Consider heavily that Samsung SGI Ltd makes a Large percentage of batteries for Samsungs devices and you have a double issue of internal engineering and quality control failure
This affects the reasoning behind a consumer willing to pay top dollar on a retail phone and now the admition that Samsung had to do so.
Remember the HUGE push in S.America in Brazil for SGS 7 EDGE and the new headphones?!
Yeah nobody is will to take a risk on their new products until full assurance that other devices will not explode (those new BT In Ear pod like headphones .... I'm ont trusting those: not by ANY company including Braggi - the best in teh industry for this desgin).
Samsung will be licking bigger wounds and if not fixed this week they loose not just sales but market share as anyone who knows a consumer that HAS the LOOT to ($$$) buy something yet cannot due to a safety issue will burn a hole in their pocket until satisfied and the next best thing will do:
Sony marketing should BOOST expenditures immediatley cause:
HTC is a joke,
Hawueii - might not cut it as well in USA/S.America (unless I'm mistaken)
other players are not usually associated with top quality UI, features and build quality, are they?

According to that article.... China is not affected because:
1. There's no recall there.
2. The batteries that are on the Note 7's there came from a different supplier.... so there's no battery issues.
But I agree with you... a recall of this magnitude affects not only sales, but the brand itself.
cheers!
