Samsung postpones delivery of Galaxy Note 7 in France – Le Figaro

VIDEO – The latest in the Samsung range should be sold in France this Friday, September 2nd. Faced with problems of batteries exploding, Korean postponed the launch date.

This ultimately will not be today. Marketing the latest smartphone from Samsung, the Galaxy Note 7 was to begin Friday in France. The brand has finally pushed its launch, due to serious problems encountered with batteries, especially in Korea and the US where sales had already begun. Some devices have caught fire when charging the battery. Samsung takes these incidents “very seriously” and seeks to understand the causes. This would include the use of chargers “Non”, which could generate a battery overheating and explosion …

En France, the impatient who preordered the Note 7 will have to wait before receiving their device. Samsung “defers deliveries for quality-control reasons,” simply says a spokesman for the group. For now, no date has been released about a resumption of supplies. Similarly, these smartphones are not on sale in shops.

In countries where the Note 7 is already sold, Samsung conducts recalls. While considering that less than 0.1% of devices in circulation could be affected by a possible default. Samsung said it had already sold 2.5 million Galaxy Note 7 in 10 countries. “I can not say exactly how much it will cost but it hurts my heart that this is an amount so high,” said Koh Dong-jin, head of the mobile division of Samsung. The group seeks above all to preserve its image.

The case for Samsung grave evil that arises in great rival Apple. The American must present on Wednesday its new iPhone 7 7, including one with a large screen, positioned on the same niche as Note 7.
