Why don't you tell me when you understand it. Of course I understand what I wrote, I'm the person who wrote it.
Hate to say it but so true... which phone out there that can do what Note 7 does, explosive? none ...
Android fans are so quiet today...
they must have to digest so much headline news today:
1) Samsung killed the King, Note 7
2) Iphone 7 plus beats Note 7 on almost every performance categories, including battery usage.
Note 7 had so much potential on "paper". the only thing it does not have is cooking breakfast for you.

oops, I just realize that Note 7 can also cook breakfast for you... once.

People in Samsung are stupid after all, they haven't learned a single thing from apple.
If it was apple, there would be no halt in sales, they would simply come out and say
"you charging it wrong" and that would be the end of it, hell maybe they gave a case from non flammable material and that's that.
More like Samsung was engineering, building and testing the Note 7 wrong. But hey let's focus on what Apple might have done because their phones certainly aren't putting people's lives at risk.
Maybe you should have suggested to Samsung to include a non flammable case that they could have included with every Note 7. Imagine how that could have turned out.
I'd say the majority of Apple fans around here would be happy if Apple had no serious competition even if it slowed innovation way down. It's more about corporate wealth then innovation for many around here.
This whole episode might just motivate Samsung more though so I wouldn't count them out just yet. They might throw everything they've got and then some into the S8 product line. Never count the Asian companies out when they are down.
"...Samsung will ask all carrier and retail partners globally to stop sales and exchanges of the Galaxy Note7 while the investigation is taking place..."
after all carriers announced stopping replacing Note 7 over the weekend, Samsung came out on Monday, a day later, and said this.

Samsung is certainly batting a 1000: http://money.cnn.com/2016/09/28/news/samsung-cpsc-washing-machine-explosion-reports/index.html
so not only S8 can burns as its predecessor, it will be able to electrically shock you wirelessly within 1 feet.
Almost happened to me. Mine was vibrating real hard. Best Buy bought it back thankfully.

Luckily you get a $25 gift card towards a non explosive Samsung phone. Wow /s
Wait, you mean Samsung wasn't throwing everything and then some at the Note product line. If they weren't then who's fault is that. Maybe Samsung should have been more interested in producing a safe quality product then being concerned about beating Apple on its product launch. Samsung had a prefect opportunity to rectify the product with the first recall but instead botched they that too. That was their learning opportunity and they failed. Do some people really not understand the magnitude of that issue. It isn't about a few incidents it is what those possible incidents could do, like endanger people's lives on airplanes.
Samsung had a bad beat with the Note 7? Psssh. That ain't nothin'. I took Rutgers +30 and lost by 48. Forty-freakin-eight! That is a bad beat.
We have a Samsung washing machine. Horrible machine, my wife curses it every time she uses it. The loads always go off balance, and the machine stops, takes hours to get one load done. Maybe it will blow up next and solve my problem.
Also have a Samsung refrigerator that is only 3 years old, and the seals on the door are falling apart. I will never buy another Samsung product.

so everything in your house is Samsung's? do you like them that much?
the only samsung device that I have is 60" plasma tv, which was on fire sale for $500 many years ago.

If only Apple can increase the iPhone 7plus production rates. When people return their note 7, stores need to have inventory to replace them with iPhone 7+.
I am an apple fan but feel pretty bad for the note users. Some are seriously hurt, some lost their personal possessions.
On the other hand, I have a crazy neighbor so I kind of want to buy him an early Christmas present.
some even sold their Note 4/5 to finance Note 7. Now they are phoneless and lost money when they sold old Note.
