Will the Note 7 now only be available with the 60% max charge limit?

Hi

I simply ask t because I keep getting conflicting responses. I assuming this is not the case as Samsung might as withdraw; what appears a really solid phone, despite the adverse press surrounding those batteries.

I understand the need for column inches, but would you rather they didn't report it? Would you buy a Note 7 at this point in time?

I'd rather they reported true facts rather than speculation for the sake of it.
It helps no one reporting "Maybe" the replacements are catching fire but the guy wouldn't hand over the phone for investigation as he wants to make a big fuss about it, but "maybe" it wasn't a replacement device at all as it "could" have been old stock not removed from the supply change - Just what does any of that mean exactly?

I agree with what you say, and the article also says the same thing:

"Of course, it remains to be seen how severe the issue really is — it is not exactly known yet whether the device was a newly built phone, or a device that just was not removed from the supply chain." So the author is covering himself by saying that.

I don't see that there's anything wrong in making people aware of a possible issue, and if I were in the market to buy one of those devices I'd certainly hold off until more people who have received replacements confirm that the problem has been resolved.
