Samsung won't brick your Note 7 if you don't return it, instead will limit battery to 60% charge

Master Disaster

just saying: if the battery was still removable, this would have been easier to fix. But HEY: at least you had something "plemeeyummm" before it turned your pants into charcoal 

One day I will be able to play Monster Hunter Frontier in French/Italian/English on my PC, it's just a matter of time... 4 5 6 7 8 9 years later: It's finally coming!!!

Phones: iPhone 4S/SE | LG V10 | Lumia 920 | Samsung S24 Ultra

Wouldn't that also mean a portable IED though? I realise the phone already is that but there are people who wouldn't deliberately blow up their expensive phone but would happily blow up its already broken removable battery.

Yeah but in that case it wouldn't be Samsung problem, they would have already done their job of making sure that all Note 7 owners have a bomb free battery. Those who get burnt later would have only themselves to be blamed. Same thing happened for Nvidia when they had to recall the shield tablet. Some people, even in this forum, kept the bad tablets even after receiving the new ones.
