R.I.P. Samsung... Time to ditch my note 5 for Huawei.
(wanted to get 7. but Huawei seems MUCH more appealing and yes. I got a note 5 for all askers. 64 GB variant white. with costum rom of Cyanogenmod 13. and API files that adds support for the pen. I wrote myself touchwiz's Spen's file into cyanogenMod. and really. it was easy as fk. not sharing it because it's modded for my own uses)

    I just laugh at the comments made by apple fanboys some of them try to be neutral. Note 7 is with out a doubt a fantastic phone this is the issue holding it back but once that is resolved you apple fan boys will have nothing more to say really.
    Why cant people just judge something on the tech..

      You know Steve Jobs' menace, about the 'thermonuclear to the last cent' about Android. Right?
      Well now is not so much about Android, but mostly about Samsung. And things are even more ugly:
      APPL became the biggest stock on Wall Street. Even the US economy depends a lot on APPL stock. Not to mention the huge funds' money there , but also almost every US person and media have shares there.
      Apple is only One-Phone-Company. And Samsung is the biggest threat there. Especially now when Apple have nothing much to offer. So don't be surprised that not only the media, but also US authorities and government are involved in this vaudeville.
      If Apple lose the image of 'the best'(they are not since long ago) , they lose everything.

                I love the Note 7. It feels great. Screen is superb. The screen blacks are amazing...makes for an amazing display. Always on display is mega. Cant imagine having a phone without it.
                Fast Charging.....an hour and half and am all set to go. I do use Iris scanner for my secured folder......super fast and works every time. Once you have your phone replaced its gud to go. Small over heating in Korea and now the whole Samsung replacements around the world are dodgy. By now with so many replacements out there many more should have occured around the world. This incident perhaps not battery related in being blown out of proportion to damage Samsung reputation further. I guess the note 7 is not only the best android phone but overall phone out there. minus the battery issue which is being settled.

                      Funny how more people would rather keep a dangerous phone for a few more days or weeks rather than get an iPhone. That says a lot.

                      It's funny how the more Apple copies Samsung's design and features, the worse their sales get.

                      Odd

                          FACT of the matter is that:
                          - samsung knows and admitted the faulty battery
                          - some government acknowledge about the problem and has taken measures and samsung also approved it
                          - samsung never denied about the problem and they never blamed other company besides apple for black propaganda
                          - worldwide recall of note 7

                          just cut the crap about conspiracy theory and that other nonsense crap. this is a dark chapter for samsung, we just forget about it and wait for the note 8 to redeem the note 7

                            I'd love a note or a s-series device with removable battery. It could be safer than so many current devices, too.

Some people are just jealous that we have the best and want to harm samsung for making the most beautiful and technological advance phone available. I don't know why people hate it so much that samsung is doing so great. This company innovates, instead of wasting it time to buy the the media, judges, and the zombies public attention. Changing the name on something available is not technology. Retina Display is just a marketing name, so is Earpods. Removing something is not invovation, its just that they are forcing you to spend more money on useless headphones brand which is just popular bc of its name.

                                I have two USA replacement Note 7. Both Note 7 batteries drain battery power too quickly and feel like their overheating when Charging! We are very unhappy with our Note 7!

                                        No matter how Samsung fanboys try to defend their products, its useless.

                                        The ugly truth of Samsung is revealed. Endless spamming anti Apple news, Copy without thinking, rushed product to defeat their rivals.

                                        All these give them extreme bad karma. So now their phones lags (despite octa core? ROFL) / explodes / scratches / malware / heat.

                                        Specs and slots are not enough to save Samsung!
