It is official, after reports of exploding smartphones, a replacement then spontaneous combustion Samsung is finally throwing in the towel on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.<\/p>\n

The embattled phone is supposed to be the current flagship product for the company and has been in a literal hellhole since shipping the first batch of 2.5 million units.<\/p>\n

The Problem With the Galaxy Note 7<\/h2>\n

Things got really bad for Samsung when reports emerged of exploding phone units<\/a>. Samsung was quick and honest to admit there was an issue and pulled out a recall on the units which they later started shipping replacements.<\/p>\n

Things got worse when one of the replacement units started smoking on a Southwest Airlines plane. Around the same time, there was another report of another Galaxy Note 7 spontaneously combusting. The scary thing about these new cases is that they were not even plugged into the charger.<\/p>\n

What with airlines across the industry banning the taking of these phone on a flight and now the replacements proving to be no solution to the matter Samsung has had to pull the plug on its flagship device.<\/p>\n

The timing could not have come at a worse time seeing all this is happening when Apple released the competing iPhone 7 and when Google is hot on their heels with the Google pixel phone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
