Kangadrool Supersonic September 29, 2016 Share September 29, 2016 It's always a concern when businesses aim to the the number 1 in it's industry. We have seen... Toyotar... Brokewagon... Now smartphone... Samsong... Same for cuntrees... Sinkapoor... first caught by surprise..., then once in 50 years..., ponding... people chose to board crowded trains..., 1K celery can buy heck dee bee flat..., speeding train due to signalling problem, speeding cyclists... Only solution is to slow down. There's only so fast you can go without going out of control. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon82 Moderator September 29, 2016 Share September 29, 2016 60~80% sounds like a bandage, hardly a fix. Sorry, I would probably sit this one out. Then what is the point of having a big capacity battery in the first place? Imagine buying a sport car that can do 300 Kmh, but limit it top speed to 100Kmh for the so call safety reasons... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon82 Moderator September 29, 2016 Share September 29, 2016 (edited) Only affects those that have not been exchanged. To encourage people to exchange their phones and at the same time reduce the risk of the phone burning. Thanks for the clarification. I thought I heard on news that replacement set also has same limit (and slower charging so as to keep the battery cooler), maybe I hear wrong. Sounds strangely familiar, but the one i know about is limited to 90kmh But at least you have the option to go faster elsewhere, if you get the drift. In Samsung case, no matter where and what time... ... But lucky it only applies to pre-exchange set from what mentioned by bro Nzy.

Cosmicclaw 6th Gear September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 Was excited about the Note 7. Placed an order via Singtel and my order was cancelled when sales was suspended. Still prepared to wait for "new" release but seems problem not fully resolved yet and will give this a miss. No matter how nice the features may be, hard to use a phone that has major safety issues and has become a butt of many a joke. Bye bye Note 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So by same do you mean there has been almost 100 explosions while charging on a sample size of 2.5m devices sold? FYI, quantity of iPhone 7's sold probably numbers to upwards of 17m. As far as Apple is concerned... why this device exploded during shipping and without even being charged or turned on needs investigating. There's also a second incident. Let's see how the pattern emerges http://bgr.com/2016/09/30/iphone-7-plus-battery-explosion-again/ Edited October 1, 2016 by ins1dious 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
