Explosion of Galaxy Note 7 : Samsung promises a response before … – Echoes

The suspense will soon come to an end. By the end of the year, Samsung is expected to unveil the conclusions of its internal investigation after the explosions in the chain of its latest smartphone, the Galaxy Note 7. The phenomenon had forced the giant south-Korean to recall the phones, and then put them back on the market before removing it definitively, on 11 October last.

But since then, no official explanation had been provided by Samsung. According to the website south-Korean The Investor, the constructor should finally lift the veil on the clear reason of the explosions by the end of December. Because, despite the initial assertions involving the batteries of smartphones, the giant had not been able to reproduce the explosions in the laboratory.

other components would be involved

In fact, as said by The Investor, the batteries have not had a primary role in the explosions of the Galaxy Note 7. If they are actually inflamed, the anomaly would come from other components. Anything to remove the doubt on Samsung SDI, a subsidiary of the giant responsible for the production of batteries, is Numerama.

“We consider all the runs in order to understand the exact cause of these accidents,” said a Samsung representative to The Investor.

The next smartphone from Samsung will be crucial

The timing of these explanations is important, while Samsung is expected to launch a new phone at the end of February for the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The output of the Galaxy S8 could be slightly delayed to ensure that there are no technical issues preventing Samsung to continue its domination of the world, with nearly a smartphone on 4 sold in the world (22.8 per cent in the second quarter of 2016).

The challenge will be to size for Samsung. Markets and its clients have received a first failure, a second could start a trend.
