SEOUL— Samsung Electronics Co. has temporarily halted production of its troubled Galaxy Note 7, according to a person familiar with the matter, the latest setback to the South Korean company as it struggles to manage a massive recall of 2.5 million faulty smartphones.

Samsung’s action followed decisions on Sunday by AT&T Inc. and T-Mobile US Inc. to stop issuing new Galaxy Note 7s to replace ones turned in by customers, sowing confusion among consumers after reports of the devices overheating.
Where the Samsung fanboys at? Come defend this irrationally.
Anyway, the Note 7 had great potential. Shame they couldn't figure this out before putting it on sale. As an avid Apple user, I root for competition and hope the Note 8 (or whatever they call it) gets it right.
Good. It's sadly not a complete shut down of their business. Hopefully they realize that they aren't and never will be competition for Apple and focus on themselves. People could have died all because they wanted to get to market before the iPhone 7. It's disgusting and shameful. A crime against humanity and an eternal tragedy.
The Note line will be fine lol. No need to end it, no ome will care about explodegate a yr from now. Great that they pulled the plug on the 7 tho, never seen a phone DOA like that before
****ing samsung
