Absolutely not. Just thinking out loud. Is a bit strange though don't you think?
And then complain when you have to replace you car / house or get injured
Cars have been sent spinning and flying off the roads by the smallest of road bumps.
They screwed up pretty badly here. See here's the thing - now that people have received *replacement* Note 7 devices that have also caught on fire, I don't think anyone will believe him, even if what he says is true.
There are some Note 7 owners who still want the phone despite the explosive issues, and somehow Apple users are the ones being called sheep
Yeah but if I keep it in a metal bucket at night when I'm asleep with a makeshift lid and then walk around with it in a steel lunchbox I'll be fine.
See this thing is being blown way out of proportion.
What a disaster. This will cost them billions and will affect them in the long run. It's not just a few billion here and there anymore, it'll be more than £10 billion by now probably.
There are stilly plenty of uses for the Note 7 ....
There are now reports of phones burning in Taiwan and South Korea.
Wow, that's aweful. They created this market segment with the Note phone and now due to some sort of design, or battery selection its causing this huge issue for them.
True that... I wonder if people from other countries are just not bothering to complain.
Although the cases reported have been only in the US, the article states that Samsung is also talking to Chinese and Korean authorities about the recall and stopping sales in those countries as well. If it was only specific to US, then I assume they would not do recall in other countries.
That makes it even worse, people getting hurt, losing their houses. I don't get why some folks revel in this, especially when its caused loss of property and injury.
All Apple -gates, resized to irrelevance in one fell swoop.
It's a collectors item. If it doesn't explode.And then complain when you have to replace you car / house or get injured
Simple, there are many members here whose own self worth seems to be directly tied to their choice of a consumer electronics product.
They've never accomplished anything on their own, so they are "winning" through their choice of a phone.
Truly bizarre behavior.

Very well put, they see Apple's success as their success.
Tbh, I like the Note phone and almost bought one a couple of years ago.
