        What I mean is their Phablets. Anything bigger than their Note Phablets is a NO for me. I'm already OK with their current Phablets' sizes plus their S pen of course...

          If Samsung gets their head out of their own backsides they will see that this is a unique opportunity to become market leader again. They need to get back to what they do best and not try to copy others. The Note 7 saga is what happens when a company lets bean counters make decisions instead of technical people.

            Possibly they will have new XPLOSIVE series replacing the Note line up.

            There is no limit to combination Samsung comes up with- Galaxy grand prime+,Galaxy grand pro.......

            I would suggest Samsung to rather limit the number of handsets release per year. Concentrate on quality rather than quantity. Every next day there is some or other Samsung device being released.

It failed to impress. Note7 was supposed to be a great successor but it failed, again. Is it the curse from the unborn note6?

                        BTW it's Note 5 that tarnished the name, with the worse battery, lack of SD card, of IR all for a moderate increase in performance and metal/glass body, compared to its predecessor. Note 7 was the follow up of a disastrous decision (to downgrade the Note line).

                              You give up easily, Samsung... Don't lose the Note brand, they are all good except for the 7 of course... I don't like the S brand actually.

                              I'm an iphone user but I will always love the Notes...

                                  This is ridiculous.. The name that is tarnished is specifically "Note 7".. Not all galaxy note.. Even the Note 5 is selling in stores right now.. The Note brand carries a lot more than what the Note 7 has burned.. The Note series are the original phablets.. When one think of phablet the first thing the comes to mind is the Galaxy Note series, not Apple 6+, not Lenovo Phab+ not any other phablet not even Samsung's own A9.. Samsung would be very stupid or digging its own grave by killing the Note brand as they have to start from the ground up to market a brand new phablet name in the sea of phablets(chinese made, california designed but still chinese made, taiwanese made, more chinese made)

                                      As google is in competition with pixel phone. Samsung must definitely try other OS LIKW WINDOWS 10 or make its own OS.
