Prior to the recall, Samsung had produced and distributed two and a half million Galaxy Note 7‘s. A substantial amount of this number accounted for unsold stock. Regardless, one million safe units it still a pretty big milestone. However, the firm isn't out of the woods just yet as reports have started to emerge claiming that the replacement models are having issues with overheating and losing power when charging.
Samsung is confident that a faulty battery isn't the cause of these problems, though. Instead, it's putting them down to an issue with mass production. The South Korean company has revealed that the replacement models pack the same cell as the unaffected handsets in China, so users don't have to worry about their device combusting, despite recent claims from Galaxy Note 7 owners in the region stating that their unit had burst into flames.
