Another country has pushed back their launch. The Note7 will launch in the Netherlands on September 9th, one week after the planned launch date for European regions.

Due to high demand

They are looking at the 9th of September instead of 2nd. I fear for rest of Europe too now. UK included.

This is poor on Samsung part

This feels like a case of Samsung underestimating just how much of a hit the Galaxy Note7 is.

This is both good and bad for Sammy in my eyes.

Good in the sense that they have a heap of potential customers and giving the Note7 a pretty good chance of a pretty big success, but also bad in the sense that they'll struggle with the increasing levels of demand, along with its chief rival, the iPhone 7 (or 6SE) coming pretty soon.

If anything, this seems to have some familiarity with the S6 edge, in the sense that Samsung underestimated the demand on those, and as such, had difficulty keeping up with demand.

Samsung always seems to **** something up.

Perhaps, but usually channel load-ins for Samsung are huge and the issues they do run into a few weeks into release are some color and storage size SKU out of stock. This seems more systemic. Just when it seemed Samsung finally got their supply chain act together. That is the one key area they still are second compared to Apple. Meh.

My guess is production for channel load-ins is behind.

Not at all. I just think theymanufactured what they felt was enough, but it turns out this phone is about to be a bigger hit is all.
