Finally, it can almost be said that almost all the units of the ill-fated Galaxy Note 7 they are out of circulation. A phone that was exposed to criticism and bad publicity when it learned that the first problems encountered were only the beginning of a hecatomb suffered by Samsung itself.
Samsung has announced that more than 96% of the Galaxy note 7 phones found on the streets have been returned. The US Department of Transportation has even decided to remove the requirement for airline lines by specifying onboard notifications related to the danger posed by a defective phablet.
It was in October of last year, when the FAA prohibited the presence Note 7 phones on any flight due to the result of a unit exploding on a Southwest Airlines flight.
Prior to the December software update that disabled Note 7 units from charging, Samsung had received about 85 percent of the devices. So it seems that the decision made in disable device charging it has been a huge success, reaching 96 percent after weeks.
This month will be the one when we know what happened to the Note 7, since Samsung publish the results of the investigations carried out during these past months. Anyway, it seems that Samsung will finally launch the successor to the Note 7 in the second half of 2017, so all is not over for the faithful of the brand and those phablets of enormous quality.
What is unknown is the fate of the remaining 4 percent of Note 7 devices. Now it is only hoped that more accidental accidents such as those that arose from September in various regions of the world will not be known.
