In case you missed, Samsung has just announced an international Samsung Galaxy Note7 recall because of the recent explosion scandal. And now it looks like the brand has come up with a solution! Let’s have a look!

Samsung Galaxy Note7: the temporary removal of Samsung-made battery

At least 35 models of Samsung Galaxy Note7 have been reported to catch fire and explode while being charged. This is a very huge number and of course a huge scandal for a brand-new smartphone in the market. To deal with it, Samsung have decided to announce an international Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall. In the mean time, the Korean brand have investigated the cause of the problem and today, there is an answer.

The battery of most Samsung devices is provided by different suppliers, including Samsung SDI – a sub company of the Korean giant. According to the reports, this sub company is the one that produced the batteries that lead to Note 7 explosion. After finding out the cause, Samsung also decided to stop using batteries from this manufacturer until they figure out what’s wrong with the production line.

This will be a great challenge for the brand, as Samsung SDI produces around 70% of batteries in Samsung Galaxy Note7. The other 30% were made by Amperex Technology – a branch of Japan’s TDK Corp. This Japanese has claimed that they only provide batteries for Note 7 units in Chinese market, which is the only one that is not affected by the global recall.

Samsung Galaxy Note7: Will the brand make it?

For those who haven’t know yet, Kog Dong Jin – Samsung smartphone business head has shared that this recall will lead to a huge loss in the company’s profit. This loss is speculated to be around 1 billion USD! But it looks like this recall is the best thing Samsung can do right now. Let’s wait and see if this Korean brand will survive this scandal or not. Are you still team Samsung?
