so apparently according to a Korean news source the galaxy note 7 will be sold refurbished with a smaller battery

Linking a source that's in Korean isn't the most helpful thing in the world...

Also I believe this is already widely known. They'll be selling them in developing countries.

 

I'm all for it. If they've replaced the only faulty component, why let all of that hardware go to waste?

It'd be foolish.

It wasnt widely known already, i have never seen Pocketnow, GSMArena or Android Authority cover this. I suppose it wasnt interesting enough to be covered in the first place xD.

I actually wouldn't mind getting one at the right price, If they could sell it at one plus prices, then I'd gladly take that over anything that's in the market right now, especially given my phone is dying and the next note is expected in what? August? 

 

The brief time I had it, the note 7 was excellent!

"Galaxy Note 7 will be sold mainly in emerging markets such as India and Vietnam."

 

Vietnam flashbacks D:

Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean it wasn't covered

All from mid November. The reports dated back to September. The AndroidCentral reporter just got it wrong.

Pretty sure it's happening. It's in emerging markets, and I think it'll do well if they price it appropriately.

Tons of people buy refurbished stuff all the the time.

Quite a lot of people would go for a note 7 for cheap price
