That award would normally go to LG, Sony, and Samsung products such as the Note 4 from my experience.

          Im guessing different people have different opinions on phones and how they like it.
          I can understand why people stay and use Samsung or iPhone. But i have used many different brands. S6, Sony Z5, iphone 6, and HTC M9 and 10 and many more. from performance wise and comfortableness, i will have to say Sony or HTC gotta be my favs. Samsung has nice specs but the TouchWiz UI is ugly AF. Apple is taking it easy and simple. And I like that. HTC...Oh boy... Sense 7 and Sense 8 are beautiful. Nice and snappy. Sony looks pretty darn simple with the Stock Android. But it is a real pleasure to use. Samsung... I like the edge and the specs...but...the TouchWiz UI is actually ugly. It is way too saturated and it doesn't look natural. Search up TouchWiz UI and HTC Sense 7 or 8. and you decide which ones better.

          no i am not a troll, and im just stating opinions. Not facts.

                  Made in China...

                  I reckon you fellas could give HTC a shot. Manufactured in its homeland Taiwan.
                  I have heard that HTC has a premium build and quality from reviews.
                  I have a few friends who uses an HTC M9 and HTC 10. They say that its really great so far.
                  Nice snappy UI and a pretty good internet speed.
                  I am considering getting a HTC 10 pretty soon.

                  Samsung...time to step it up mate

                      Hope this is your fate Samsung.
                      It won't be pretty.
                      May the Other phone company that actually INNOVATES! not copying other people's work rise in economy and innovation and technology.

                        After charging my note 7 at 100% the temperature of the battery was 33 degrees celsius. Sure i stop using fast charge. Charge time from 16% to 100% 1h 30min.not bad.

                            AnonD-194597, 05 Sep 2016I would love to know how many of those who bought the Note7... moreThis comment is pure speculation it is my personal opinion
                            Say the fault is caused by a faulty overcharge protection restrictor

                            On that basis they are all ok until what we do charge overnight!
                            So there could be people who have a faulty unit

                            Again another connected guess, such a small number can be attributed to one individual NOT following quality control procedures, this is a situation where quotas need to be achieved.

                            There are some really stupid comments no doubt by Orchard Dwelling trolls that have taken the opportunity to write comments as they don't care or can't read

                            I have had 6 phones on contract so with PAYG THREE are Samsung and NOT one battery has exploded
                            This is unprecedented and when you read earlier comments of phones catching fire it is user errors
                            It will cost a lot to recall but really would anyone trust a phone if Samsung not done this, or if it explodes and then Samsung offer a replacement phone

                            The battery makers error, and Samsung must reassure that phones in the market do not explode

                            This was a big story a few years back, Samsung phone caught fire, later revealed being charged overnight, UNDER HER PILLOW
                            Go figure!

                                Have no mercy on Samsung.
                                Tried to launch an unfinished product to fool customers.
                                Hope Samsung get lost from the mobile industry and go bankrupt soon with this recall and hopefully get sued for launching an explosive device.
                                Go for Motorola or HTC if one appreciate quality products.
