Galaxy Note 7 Explosion Signs To Avoid To Keep You And Your Wallet Safe From Harm
C. de LacyOwners of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 are advised to return their handsets back as the announcement already came from the manufacturer itself. For those who don't see this as an option at the moment, here are some cues to look out for to prevent any damage caused by the problematic smartphone.
In an official report from Samsung's website, Head of business DJ Koh stated that the replacement of the defective smartphones are going to have a faster turnaround.
"We are expediting replacement devices so that they can be provided through the exchange program as conveniently as possible and in compliance with related regulations," he said.
For those who have purchased the Galaxy Note 7, it is very likely that the model is the one related to the recent explosions associated with the fire-prone lithium-ion batteries.
While the likelihood of every single Galaxy Note 7 exploding is not 100 percent, it would be best to take all the precautionary measures, which will save consumers the trouble of having to deal with the potential damage it can cause and end up without a proper phone.
For those who are just about to purchase the phone, there's only one cue to tell if the the Note 7 is part of the batch that causes fiery accidents.
The updated ones now have a big S letter inside a white circle outside the box. This is the only thing the consumers need to look for to make sure that the Note 7 that they'll be getting is free from the same issues.
For those who are getting the phone without the box, Samsung is also going to be release an IMEI database tool that will single out risky handsets that needs to be recalled.
The IMEI number can be found by going to the phone's settings under "About My Phone" and then under "Status."
For those who find out that their phones are prone to accidents similar to what have been surfacing lately, returning the phone as soon as possible is the next best thing, otherwise keeping the Galaxy Note 7 turned off will be the safest measure.
