Samsung's Galaxy Note7 nightmare just won't end.。
After an official recall of its Note7 phone with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the banning of the faulty devices on flights by the Federal Aviation Administration, Samsung finally started shipping loads and loads of replacement devices for Note7 owners to exchange.。

has reached out to Samsung Electronics America for comment on whether it received any similar reports about replacement Note7 phones.。
Let's face it: The Note7 is Samsung's biggest blunder. The phone itself is solid -- Android's best -- but quality control issues have ruined it.。
According to Bloomberg, Samsung may have rushed the Note7 in order to beat Apple's "boring" iPhone 7 phones. With all the manufacturing problems, the story certainly matches up.。
But at this point, it's worth asking: Why even bother with the Note7? The phone's launch and relaunch is shaping up to be a disaster (even if the new problems are unrelated to the first ones). 。
