Are the N930FD battery issues-free?

[stoyandim]

Today I ordered N930FD and it will come tomorrow.

Are the duos phones with no battery issues or they are also prone to blowing up.

I suppose that this phone might come from a new batch and it will be good, but will the IMEI checking websites show me if there is an issue?

No one knows exactly which models blew up...well they know they just arent telling us.

Id wait a bit before buying anything note 7 related

Where did u order your FD from? I returned my previous FD back to the eBay seller due to recall. I really want to buy another FD without the battery issue.

I like to think my battery battery is safe. I've not run into any problems since August 15th when I received the device. I don't plan on exchanging it either until I see the slightest hiccup if any kind. Goes to show how good the FD version is.

ANY device may have an affected batt, go safe, exchange

 

[stoyandim]

I ordered it from a local store and canceled the order because I checked the IMEI before purchase and it was from the affected ones :/

You won't see any "hiccups". Having your Note 7 run hot isn't a sign the battery may be bad, nor is battery drain (Unless it's draining at like 1%/Minute or something).

As soon as the battery develops an internal short through the separator (if that truly is the issue) it'll rapidly heat, develop more shorts and catch fire internally. Despite what I keep reading there's not going to be any signs, the batteries aren't overheating at all, and they can operate normally up to like 50*c or something. They will overheat once they've caught fire though. So suck it up and go and replace it. You cannot know if yours is bad.

Is there any customs fee when we order from outside the US?

 

[gclancer]

I never got charged any duties or taxes for all the phones I purchased from overseas. This is for personal use not commercial unless u buy bulk then CBP might hit u with duty/tax.

I just bought the phone from them, came out to $764. Can't beat that

Hum, I really want to place that order. Wonder if the US customs gonna inspect it...or whatever.

 

[gclancer]

Probably not, all my previous purchases from Asia, Europe with DHL FedEx UPS all went through without custom issue.

Is that a reliable Seller?

 

[gclancer]

I did some research on Google, they are one of the top 3 resellers and the reviews are pretty good

LOL... I wouldn't say "anything"... And believing nothing would make me ignorant. Sort of like those who believe that Samsung is omni-potent.

Tried to place an order and strangely got declined even though it's one of the accepted card...Oh well, will try another card later.
