Yesterday we reported that Samsung halted production of the Note 7 until the issues are resolved, today it takers another turn. The sales have been halted and people can return their phone to the stores. You can get your money back or exchange for another Samsung smart-phone.

The recent reports on exploding batteries even with the updated model certainly is one of the biggest black pages in the history of Samsung smart-phones, here is the reaction and official statement from Samsung:

Samsung Will Ask All Global Partners to Stop Sales and Exchanges of Galaxy Note7 While Further Investigation Takes Place

We are working with relevant regulatory bodies to investigate the recently reported cases involving the Galaxy Note7. Because consumers’ safety remains our top priority, Samsung will ask all carrier and retail partners globally to stop sales and exchanges of the Galaxy Note7 while the investigation is taking place.

We remain committed to working diligently with appropriate regulatory authorities to take all necessary steps to resolve the situation. Consumers with either an original Galaxy Note7 or replacement Galaxy Note7 device should power down and stop using the device and take advantage of the remedies available.
