    This is fake. Black Note 7 has a black box and this box is white and it should say black onyx on the box not just black. Finally they say "the phone burned through the carpet and managed to scorch the subfloor of the plane." and when we look at the picture there arent any burn or scorching marks on the floor.

            Samsung should just use LG batteries. 90% of Samsung devices in our family have battery issues. Most of them are swollen pushing the backing or screen outward. Now 100% of the LGs have no battery issues. 3 year old LG G2 still on original battery. A G3 being overcharged and abused for 2 years still original battery. A G4 is still going on its original battery. Within a year or 2 all the Samsung phones either don't charge or have a swollen battery with horrendous battery life. I even have an old Samsung D900i laying around with...guess what.... a swollen battery as well as an S7350. What is it with Samsung and batteries????

                            These is just my Observation.

                            - IMEI and ICCID Clearly shows the Device is GSM and from AT&T
                            - The Box shows Phone Color is Black however there is no Black SGN7 (it is Black Onyx)
                            - The Box itself is White but the Actual Retail Box for Black Onyx SGN7 is Black as well
                            - Safe Replacement Units from Samsung has a Black Squire indicator with an S colored blue which means Safe (can you see it on the box.?.) I cannot see the Black Squire with blue S on the box which Samsung released for Safe Units and I believe that the Black Squire indicated on the box is the color indicator of the unit.

                            LET US WAIT FOR THE FINAL RESULT OF THE ACTUAL INVISTAGATION...
