Samsung Galaxy Note 7 owners can get replacement by Sept. 21 If you’re a Galaxy Note 7 owner, you’re in luck — finally. You’ll be able to get your replacement within the next week. Samsung on Thursday said new Note 7 replacement devices will be available in the US at most retail locations no later than Sept. 21. The update came as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission on Thursday issued a recall for all Note 7 phones sold in the country before September 15. The group said “consumers should immediately stop using and power down the recalled Galaxy Note 7 devices” and contact the location where they purchased the devices to either get a new Note 7, a refund or a replacement device. “Consumer safety is always our highest priority,” Tim Baxter, president of Samsung Electronics America, said in a statement. “Our collaboration with the CPSC to fast-track a voluntary recall in the US addresses safety concerns by ensuring we reach Note 7 owners quickly to exchange their devices.” Samsung launched its Galaxy Note 7 phablet in late August to much fanfare and overall favorable reviews, but users quickly noticed some problems with the device. Specifically, a “battery cell issue” caused some Notes to overheat and start fires. Airlines have banned customers from using them on flights. Samsung’s efforts to replace the Note 7 in the US had been stalled, waiting for the CPSC to come to the decision to recall the device. Samsung has received 92 reports of the batteries overheating in the US, including 26 reports of burns and 55 reports of property damage, including fires in cars and a garage, the CPSC said. After 35 reported incidents of overheating smartphones worldwide, Samsung made the unprecedented decision to recall every single one of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphones sold. That’s said to be 1 million of the 2.5 million that were manufactured. The company stopped all sales and shipments of the Note 7 and said it was working with government agencies and cellular carriers around the world to provide refunds and exchanges for the phone. Still, Samsung has been criticized for how it initially handled the issue. While it’s been pushing a global recall of its own, many people have kept using their phones anyway. Some have been injured when the phone caught on fire. The CPSC decision makes the recall more formal.

SAD: Zabranjeno unošenje Galaxy Note 7 u zrakoplove na letovima unutar i van zemlje Ministar trasnporta SAD-a Anthony Foxx rekao je kako shvata da će odluka pojedine putnike dovesti u tešku situaciju, ali da se mora misliti na sigurnost svih u zrakoplovu. Američko ministarstvo transporta zabranilo je unošenje pametnih telefona Samsung Galaxy Note 7 iz sigurnosnih razloga. Samsung je ranije povukao 2,5 milijuna telefona Galaxy Note 7 nakon što se nekoliko desetina ovih uređaja zapalilo ili eksplodiralo, vjerovatno zbog fabričke greške. U saopćenju američkog ministarstva navodi se kako vlasnici pomenutih telefona neće moći unijeti telefone u zrakoplove na letovima unutar zemlje, s polaznom destinacijom iz SAD-a, ili u avione koji lete za tu zemlju bez obzira da li je riječ o ručnom prtljagu ili ne. “Pomenuti uređaji neće moći biti prevoženi ni kargo putem”, ističe se u saopćenju u kojem se dodaje kako odluka koja se odnosi na sve modele Samsung Galaxy Note 7 na snagu stupa u subotu. Oni putnici koji pokušaju unijeti telefone bit će novčano kažnjeni, a isti će im biti oduzeti. Pored toga, ukoliko putnici pokušaju sakriti telefon u prtljag, protiv njih će biti pokrenut pravni postupak. “Shvatamo da će zabrana unošenja ovih uređaja dovesti pojedine putnike u tešku situaciju, ali moramo prvenstveno misliti na sigurnost svih koji se nalaze u zrakoplovu”, rekao je ministar transporta SAD-a Anthony Foxx. Pretpostavlja se da je odluka uslijedila nakon što se prije nekoliko dana zapalio telefon putnika zrakoplovne tvrtke Shoutwest. Samsung je početkom tjedna saopćio kako povlači prodaju i proizvodnju Galaxy Note 7.
