Re: Formal recall being announced by CPSC today at 4:15

So far nothing about the supposed replacement Note 7's that we can do an even swap for or any timeline these replacements will be available. This blows.

All he said was exchange them for a new phone. Didn't say anything about new Note 7s and none of the dopes in the room apparently asked.

So what are the three digits on the back he referred to?

Re: Formal recall being announced by CPSC today at 4:15

If you read between the lines on the Samsung website, it does look like the CPSC has approved the new ones

Well at least there's no full cancelation of the Note7 line. I'm pretty sure since they said it can be replaced with another Note 7 sans an sdi battery, they will be in shortly.

Apparently so:

5. When can I buy a new Note7?

Our first priority will be to provide exchange program participants with a new Note7 as approved by the CPSC. New Note7s will be available at your carrier and retail outlets no later than September 21, 2016.

Re: Formal recall being announced by CPSC today at 4:15

I have a ticking time bomb .. wish they would have said when replacements will be out ... Just have a 2 hour drive each to swap out mine since my Verizon won't take it since i didnt buy it from them

So we found out there's a recall and our options are the same as before. Glad the CPSC got involved...

It says samsung Note 7's purchased before sept 15th. I hope all the replacements are good.

Dang though, 97 percent of phones in the US part of the recall. Wow. I didn't think the affect devices where going to be that high. They better get producing these replacements fast, and any word if they will sell new models or just replace everyone's and that's it for awhile for US sales.

This is gonna hurt.
