Here in VIETNAM, i asked many times, Samsung for a different replacement color, and everytime they feed me the BS it is not allowed to change the color of your replacement note 7. Even when i said, when i bought the phone there was only 1 color available! SUCH A SIMPLE REQUEST for a consumer...

Yea i am in Vietnam as a tourist now, where i bought a Note 7. I am finding customer service very inadequate here. I been constantly trying to find out my options but am constantly stonewalled with nonsense. Also here where the phone is being manufactured they aren't starting a replacement...

I am using mine, i haven't had any issue with it. I take extra caution when charging. I don't fast charge, charge when i am awake and keep an eye on it. It doesn't even get warm when charging. The phone seems to be a winner. I will replace it when i can....but still i was told not until Oct 1...

Use of Recalled Note 7 So i am holding onto and using my Note 7, while i wait for my replacement: I would like to open up a discussion on using the Note 7 while waiting for replacement. Safety issues: Is there possibility phone could cause fire issue when using without charging, just in...

Thats a real bummer!!! Good news i would think it is still covered for a replacement! But according to corning glass it could happen 20% of the time and 80% it should be ok. maybe the angle it hits the ground and surface. I for sure have no expertise in these matters...But i feel for you and...

yes agree, i had a note 3, 4 (long time) and short time with a 5, but note 7 is in another category all together in the way it operates. I didn't use touch wiz because i have been always using Nova with no animation. I really like this phone it's beautiful to look at great in the hand and works...

Mine also is smooth as silk, its a great phone, i'll wait for a new one. I gave my details to samsung customer care yesterday. I also kept my old phone, while i wait, i change the option of fast charging to off. Also i charge phone when i am awake and keep a eye on it. Honesty it doesn't even...

Here in Vietnam: Just returned from Samsung customer care, they recorded the details of phone and bill of sale. I was told by email that i couldn't change the color, even though it wasn't my choice to buy the color. The shop only had 2 phones both in gold. I wanted a black one. I guess samsung...

What i understand Samsung isn't naming the company that produced the faulty issue with the batteries. If Samsung did the research to discover the fault, you would deduce that they know which company screwed up. It's going to cost big bucks for Samsung and very bad timing with the iPhone 7...

I have gold phone and been using secure folder. I haven't had any issues with restarts on my phone or any issues at all. Its a fantastic phone. I even after a week changed my stock rom to the australian version and changed country code and modem to Australian firmware, and all works well. I...

Which do you find looks better to you the Black or Gold? which shows more fingerprints on the back?

Just spoke with Samsung here at the call centre in Vietnam. Its a holiday here now, she said to go to my local Samsung warranty centre in the town i live and they will replace my phone. Would be interesting if they already have phones in stock in Vietnam to replace the battery problematic ones...

Bought mine in Vietnam on 24 August, No boot loop, or overheating, runs great, Its the FD model and this morning i flashed Australian rom, country code and Modem. All working well, hasn't missed a beat. Been using it pretty heavy with getting everything the was i want. It's a great phone. I saw...

I love the way it looks, feels, performs. It's by far the best phone that i have used or seen. I have no complaints about the Note 7, Been using it for more then a week now. Am a happy phone camper! At this point i don't think i will even root this phone, I enjoy having the extra security...

I have bought 2 samsung in Vietnam. I was told by Samsung i have one year warranty with Samsung in Vietnam. When i was last in Australia, I was told by Samsung Australia that they don't honour the warranty and i need to take it to Samsung in Vietnam, where the phone was purchased. This i...
