      They should have renamed it the Note 7s (S for safe) and emphasized it in marketing communications

      This would also have saved the users explanation to airlines whether the phone is safe or not ("the warning is for note 7,but mine is note 7s")

        I would just hold out on my defected Note 7 and force Samsung to buy it back at 100% profit. Or let it explode in a YouTube video and let it go viral. Trading in for a new one is letting Samsung off the hook too easily.

It is labeled as the ugliest phone of that year. To conclude, waterproof phone with removable battery simply ugly. So, asking Samsung to go back to that era is a no no.

                              I'll never upgrade to the Note 7..SAMSUNG will go the way way Nokia did if it doesn't learn from this and go back to basics, for get about water proof, no body cares about that bring back the replaceable battwry and get rid of the front button.

                              Innovate and listen to your customers.

They said that "anything is possible", One of the reason they hadnt done it already is because of technological hiccups and cost. So, after this Note7 fiasco, I'm betting the battery will be removable in the S8 or the Note8
