A flop indeed, my last 2 phones were from Samsung and they are really good.
I was thinking of upgrading next year to Sansung again, as my personal experience with them is good, but I will for sure not jump to the latest and greatest and instead wait it out a couple of months just because of this.
Though honestly it is never really a good idea to grab something off the shelves before it even ran some time and issues get exposed.

Not always - S7 Edge still is a fantastic phone from the moment it went on sale.

S7E is the best selling android of the year and easily the best phone, Note 7 is a disaster and they made the right choice.
