There is chance that Apple used the problematic batch. If Apple uses Samsung SDI's battery and their battery have problem Apple need to recall as well.

Samsung uses golbal recall, not specific batch Note 7. If the problem is only specific batch, Samsung does not need to recalling every Note 7
This is probably the stupidest thing I've read all day...unless you work for Samsung, then it makes sense.

firstly -if we extrapolate your theory - why aren't you saying that Samsung recall every single phone with battery made by that manufacturer?

secondly - you do not know where and who is producing the battery in an unreleased product that is entirely different and built to different specification...

thirdly - how can you call apple irresponsible for not recalling an unreleased product that has absolutely no single reported defect, YET you say Samsung is "more responsible" even though they have not issued an "official" recall?

LMAO!

Probably the most incoherent and paranoid thing I've read all week. I bet a UFO is responsible for pre-order glitches too, and that Jony Ive is really from Proxima Centauri
 
LOL... the amount of fanboyism is incrediblely high. Apple cannot do wrong is again reflected by Apple's fans.

Samsung SDI appeared on Apple's suppliers list. The same company was listed on 2014,2015. What makes you guys think Samsung SDI will dropped from list this year.

It is all about potential. There weren't any problem does not means there won't be problem in the future. If Apple really used Samsung SDI's battery, then we can reasonable assume same problem will occurs on iPhone.

I do not know why when it comes to Apple, problem will magically go away.

Again, Apple fans are denying problems. Just like they did when MacBook Pro graphic card problem and iPhone 6 touch disease.

Keep denying and waiting for battery exploding on you. Then you guys will know there might be a problem with battery.

Nobody is dropping Samsung SDI, you'd be saying literally thousands of different consumer products are effected by what is clearly an issue with one assembly line (or more likely one batch of batteries).

Do you understand how this industry works?

If I buy a Camry that was assembled in New Mexico and there is a defect on assembly line B at the brake-line step, are you saying that all Toyotas regardless of where they are made, what model, and what configuration doesn't matter? Get a clue.
 
ford should also recall the next vehicle they have coming out, just to be safe.
[doublepost=1473691114][/doublepost]
UNLESS!

Unless OP is like a pre-cog from Minority Report.

If Ford used same components as failed Fusion. This is why sometimes car makers will recall several car models at same time.

Yeah... and if a specific train derails, you can reasonable assume that one completely different model from the same manufacturer is surely gonna derail too, even if another production line is used etc. Because **** logic, we're all fanboys anyway. ;)

Again. If there is problem with the same airbag that Toyota used. Regardless which assembly line, Toyota will need to replace the airbag.

You understand that iPhone batteries are completely different product than the one particular model that it in Samsung's devices right?

This is not a one-size-fits-all type of industry. The fact that the batteries aren't even the same ****ing shape should tip you off that it's a different assembly process and different line.

Learn 2 technology.

No no, you can not reasonably assume, as you have no proof.

Why are you not therefore calling for all samsung phones with SDI batteries to be recalled?

There is no problem to deny. Now if a bunch of iPhones suddenly start exploding i will happily eat my words. But right now your stupid, idiotic logic makes zero sense.

In fact, no company should ever release another product, ever. In case there might potentially be a problem with them. Unless its Samsung, that you'd be ok with, right?
 
You should just stop answering him. He either doesn't want or can't understand it. Or is just trolling.

Apple using Samsung SDI's battery. And we know Samsung SDI's battery has explosion issue with Note 7. Therefore, it is reasonable to suspect that same thing could happen to Apple's products.

If Apple is responsible, Apple should come up with a statement and recall products using google Samsung SDI's battery

You're such an idiot. What are you getting? Samsung SDI makes hundreds of models of batteries. Not every battery they ever made is faulty. A very SMALL subset of batteries that were created specifically for the note7 were faulty. They recalled all of them as a safety measure.
 
I told ya so! Don't laugh at Note7 users. Karma is watching us all. Being punished from the greed of planned obsolescence and a sealed battery is the most important component for this plan.

I told this before that Samsung's fingerprints is pretty much everywhere in our phones and appliances, inside or out. Samsung is a bigger conglomerate than Sony.

Arsonists already have control of the media where Note7 gets free negative publicity. Light things up and then go blame the Note7 for it. Samsung lost some its loyal fans with this Project Zero crap. This is the price you pay for hoodwinking customers every few years. Now watch it burn...

Dear Samsung,

Please bring back removable battery on the Galaxy S8 and Note8. You save much more money on another possible battery recall.

Sincerely,
Users who don't depend their usage on a sealed battery's lifespan

P.S. - Stop being like Apple. Be true to yourself, Samsung. Like Kurt Cobain once said and what Allen Iverson lives by, "I'd rather be hated for who I am than be loved for who I'm not."

-

Dear Apple,

Depend on yourself only. Make your own components. Be the chef to own kitchen. Don't just design it. Manufacture it yourselves. Control your own fate. Self-reliance. Look at Android OEMs who suffered using Qualcomm's Snapdragon 810 last year.

You dealt with Samsung Chipgate last year and now their very own batteries. What next? Faulty storage space? Is cheap Asian outsourcing the best you can do? Is getting to a trillion dollars still not enough? Is making the most money the only thing that matters, Apple?

P.S. - Be more like Samsung. A true OEM across the board, not just a software maker who pleases your shareholders. Make it in the USA to help American employment. But do it with the Apple attention to detail, refinements, and stability that Samsung tends to lack in.
 
According to which source was Samsung SDI the problematic battery supplier for the Note 7? Who confirmed this?
That has been confirmed by Samsung - the bad batteries were from Samsung SDI.

However, AFAIK the issue is with the circuitry on top of the battery that limits the charging current. Not sure if iPhones use that same circuitry.

Ok, that's what I was asking. Early in the investigation, this was denied, but I haven't followed up much since the first 72 hours or so. Was just seeking clarification/source.
