Replacement note 7 made in Korea vs. China

[Bbarbie]

Hello everyone, so as you may have noticed some of our replacement note 7 devices were made in Korea and some in China. So question is anyone seeing quality difference or performance difference? For example, those reporting over heating battery which country is your note 7 replacement made in? Or those who find the battery works amazing which country was it made in? Thanks ☺

Made in China, battery nowhere near as good as my original Note 7.

Oh jeez, does it drain fast ?

Oh jeez, does it drain fast ?

I get 2-3 hours less per day, and charging is not as fast as the other one either. It's still decent, but nothing to write home about. I was getting 12 plus hours per day with 5 hours SOT, now I'm lucky to get 9.

Interesting. I would say mine is ok for now in terms of battery but i will observe for another full day because last night it was at 90% unplugged and I woke up to it being 60% but I also had synced a new fitbit to the phone and had selected the always unlock when device is nearby feature. Ever since i disabled that always unlock the phone when device is nearby since then battery drain has stopped. Mine is made in korea.

My replacement Note 7 is made in China and my battery life has been excellent. Original Note 7's battery wasn't bad, but nothing special. Certainly much better in my replacement unit, though I suspect that's merely a product of the software update.

How do you know where it is made?

My original Note 7 says right on the back in the fine print.

Box says it usually or the my phone info app will also tell you.

My current note 7 was made in China. I'm getting excellent battery life, better than my previous note 7. However, it charges a lot slower.

Both original and replacement made in Korea. The uneven screen gap in the original is better in the replacement. Battery life is about the same, performance is noticeably better in the replacement. I had occasional lags in the original, but none on the replacement so far.

Both were made in China, my replacement is better than the original Note. Charging time was faster on the original, lightening fast. There were lags on the first one, nothing crazy or too annoying, but replacement has none it's butter smooth. Overall loving my replacement better than original.

That is an exact same description of my original Note 7 that I am still using while I continue to wait for Sprint to send my replacement. I can only hope the replacement is as good as this one.
