    1. Just because a device has not blown up yet does not mean it never will.
    2. Now the device is discontinued and not meant to be in anyone's possession unless a device causes a major amount of damage will it even be consider newsworthy and thus reported any more. Basically who really cares any more unless it causes serious damage or harm. The people or person concerned should not be in possession of it so are they likely to report it?
    3. Approximately 85% of all phones sold have been returned.

                      AnonD-177184, 05 Nov 2016Why not bring out an S7 Edge+ as a replacement?There is no Note replacement. Even other Samsung's models are not.
                      Bet on, that you've never had Note.

                            Why don't they simply announce that
                            anybody using Note 7 should return the unit within so and so date otherwise they will not be responsible for anything or any kind of damage happen.
                            why forcing people.

                                      You can buy a grenade way cheaper and at least you know exactly when it's gonna explode, instead of holding to this dangerous device that is unpredictable.
