That's why I made the "Owner's Club" text a "Red-Orange-Red" blend - to simulate the heat! I didn't want to make it too obvious...

If they get replacement units to us soon and new units on sale I can see it recovering if there is a price reduction. Even before I think the price was too steep for it. However this is still the biggest powerhouse device of the year. Nothing comes close to it with features and that. Even a year from now it will still be a top tier phone. A shame this happened. When you compare this device to iPhone 7 Plus, the iPhone looks like a joke specs wise.
If you took cow dung, put it in a box with an Apple logo on it people would line up for hours to buy it.

Really bad news from NY. Yesterday a 6yr old boy was holding his grandmother's note 7. It wasn't charging, he was merely holding it. It bust into flames. I don't think He was hurt badly, I don't know the extent of what his injuries are if any, only that it exploded while in his hands. Brooklyn, NY. This is an entirely different situation. Does Samsung care about our safety? Of course not . But they do care about getting every device still not returned back because until they do more of the same will eventually happen. To who and when, no one knows. But with each new explosion it will be harder and harder to get the new ones out and put this behind them. What if he had the phone up to his ear or close to his eyes?? I'm not fear mongering. Only starting what happened. And After what happened to the little boy I believe Samsung knew this was inevitable. Yes, it's s Battery problem, and Spontaneous combustion can happen at any time I thought I'd be the last holdout, and keep my note until the new one was placed in my hand. But I'm not so certain of that anymore. I live in NY, Brooklyn is a 20 min. drive from my home. I'm going to try to get to Verizon today and talk with the manager. See what info be can give me. Maybe he can shed some light on what's really going on and what the plans are for getting new notes in our hands.

Still hanging in there, i am not using my Note, but i will as soon as it can be replaced. We may never know the truth on all of these stories, i know there are problems with the note7 and they need to be fixed. I also know that there will be some folks who manufacture these "exploding" stories just to get on the news or to make a quick buck. Not saying that this is what happened here, just that there are those type of folks out there.
I am going to hold onto my thought that when the dust settles the Note 7 Owners club will be a small group (assuming we all live through it).

I wonder why people keep saying the Note 7 is "exploding". It appears to me they are melting and/or burning. If they were exploding, they'd be in a million pieces right? This whole debacle just irks me.

I have a feeling later this week Samsung is going to announce that not all Note 7's need to be replaced and you will be able to check your IMEI on their website. Just what I think.

If the Carriers had 5 million. Phones at their stores today.
And you had money. You can't buy one.
You can't get a Note 7 replaced with another note 7.
The consumer product safety took over.
Everybody's hands are tied.
So trash Best Buy , Samsung and the carriers all you want.
Until Cpsc releases them, all you can do is cry.

I think instead of a massive recall they would of thought of this first...... We can hope but I doubt it.... Unless further investigation gave them the ability to track the issue....

If they do that it would really tick me off considering I've already went through the trouble of returning the phone. Lol
That would be awesome if that happened, it could save them a lot of money and only replace the one's with the bad batteries.
I was in a t-mobile store this afternoon inquiring about a loaner and asked when they thought they would get replacements. The rep said initially they were told 2-4 weeks, that was before the government got involved. Now that the gov is involved he said he wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't until late October before they see replacements but that was a guess. I wouldn't be shocked either, I mean have you ever seen the government be quick to do anything besides give themselves raises? Hoping it doesn't take that long but who knows how long the testing period will be.
