Background of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Discontinuation:
Samsung recently released its note series flagship
smartphone called the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in real life it was a perfect phone
for everyone who likes bigger displays like me but it had an unknown issue with
the batteries which resulted in explosion about 100 incidents have been
reported about the Note 7 explosion in the past which made Samsung halt all
sales of Note 7 devices worldwide and at that time Samsung decided to recall
the Note 7 and refresh its batteries and start to sell it again in the market.
After Samsung started the reselling process of SAFE Note 7
devices more explosion news started to come up which resulted in making Note 7
a history eventually after all that difficult time Samsung had to something for
the buyers because they were not at fault about all these explosions so they
ended up with a replacement program so that people who have already bought the
Note 7 can return it and get their money back or they can get their device
replaced with any of the other Samsung smartphones which are safe from these dangerous
explosions.

Now if you are one of the consumers who love to travel and
make sure they have updated stuff everywhere and you bought a Samsung Galaxy
Note 7 from another country or far city and you reside in the United States you
have just lost your money and that’s because U.S Department of Transportation
has banned Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in all U.S airlines which means you won’t be able
to return your smartphone and yes if you are thinking that oh I can sneak that
little guy in my luggage somewhere and the authorities won’t know it then you
are gravely mistaken, if you are found guilty using the Note 7 or carrying it
somehow in your luggage or it is with you in any flight you will have to face heavy
fine accompanied with severe punishment also the most terrifying part is you
can also get prosecuted and that’s because you are risking your and hundreds of
life just for a small smartphone worth 800$ god forbid in case of any accident.
Samsung has also shown interest in this regard because they
don’t want to risk other people lives and obviously for business reasons.
In my opinion it is a great initiative by the U.S Department
of Transportation and Samsung to stop people from carrying Note 7’s in flight
and I would say it should be implemented all over the world whereas Samsung
should consider an option for the people who have bought their phones from
other countries and find a way to return their phones within the country they
are in now.
