With the iPhone 7 and Google’s Pixel to compete with Samsung in the market, it seems rather alarming for the company to lose money as it announces to the public to stop using the Samsung Note 7. As you can all recall, disturbing news of Samsung 7 devices looking charred as it catches fire due to faulty batteries. Even airlines have banned the unit from being boarded on the plane.

The Samsung Note 7 was released last August with a promising outlook on sales because of the praises from the critics. Unfortunately, the company had to recall most of the Note 7 in the public because of the upsetting news of charred Note 7 units seen on social media. As for those replaced units, there are still reports showing that these units were still not safe from its faulty battery problem. This has caused the company a huge financial loss and repetitional damage.

Now, the company has officially released a statement that it has stopped production of the Galaxy Note 7 for now. The company said that it made a “final decision” to “permanently discontinue” its production. For anyone who has been affected by this issue can go to their nearest Samsung store and request for a different Samsung model.
