Samsung to release refurbished Galaxy Note 7 on July 7
According to the sources, Samsung will release the smartphone under the name the Galaxy Note FE, with a price tagbelow 700,000 won (US$616). SEOUL, June 27 (Yonhap) -- Samsung Electronics Co. plans to release the refurbished edition of the ill-fated Galaxy Note 7 smartphone next month, industry sources said Tuesday. Accordingly, the refurbished devices will have a smaller battery capacity than the originals, along with the latest software updates. Samsung has been planning to release the Note FE amid criticism that to totally discard all the existing phones it bought back from consumers or did not sell could adversely impact the environment. The South Korean tech giant suspended production and sales of the Galaxy Note 7 last year amid reports that some of the devices caught fire while charging.
Interestingly, the article raises the prospect of the revived Galaxy Note 7 cannibalizing sales of the Galaxy S8, Samsung's newer smartphone. Samsung Electronics (005930.KR) has quietly resurrected its Galaxy Note 7 smartphone, which was the source of a major corporate brouhaha last year because of its unwanted tendency to catch fire. Smoldering Galaxy Note 7s aren't the only ignominy that's haunted this company lately. The South Korean company concluded earlier this year that the overheating in some devices came from design and manufacturing problems with the devices' batteries. According to Samsung, the defect affected 330 out of the three million Note 7 phones that it sold.
