The Galaxy Note 7 Fan Edition: Three reasons why Samsung’s troubled flagship never made it to India
Samsung today finally re-launched the refurbished Galaxy Note 7 back into the Korean market with a new “Fan Edition” tag to its model name. The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Fan Edition, looks the same as the original and it even comes with the same hardware specifications; save for the battery and some new and refreshed software. A move that should hopefully, help them move units back into some markets.
Inside the Fan Edition, lies a brand-new battery that is now toned down in terms of capacity to 3,200 mAh as compared to the 3,500 mAh unit in the original Galaxy Note 7. In its Korean press release, Samsung makes it clear that the new battery (and the smartphone) has passed its rigorous 8-point safety test, so in all probability we should not hear of any exploding batteries going forward, just like we haven’t heard about the Galaxy S8, its newest flagship.
