I know - Samsung has the only premium Android phones. As for the 5 to 6 months: we don't know when the ones that blew up were purchased. Plus people probably weren't reporting burning phones to the media before the Note 7 recall, but considering the fact that around 6 or 7 burned in the last 3-4 weeks in the US and the UK alone (just do a quick Google search), it's about the same rate as with the Note 7. Of course, we don't know what happened after they burned as the media were solely focussing on the Note 7 and probably didn't follow up on the EDGE cases.If the s7 edge was a bomb too then it would not wait for 5 to 6 months to blow up. I get the lack of trust in samsung I feel it too but ya I got s7 edge today instead of my replacement note 7. I don't like look and feel of other brands ....sigh..
I also find it suspicious that several people have now reported that they couldn't get an S7 EDGE from AT&T - perhaps they're also preparing a sales stop until it's clear that the S7 EDGE is deemed safe.
