The launch of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 caused great expectations in the users, but the good thing did not last long, because after a few days they already echoed news that this device exploded while it was connected to the charger .
Recall that one of the immediate steps of Samsung was to stop sales worldwide to later launch a replacement program, which gives the user the option to replace your device with a new one that does not have this failure, completely free
The latest news that has come to us from Samsung, is that it will launch a patch that limits the phone's load to 60%. This is intended to prevent overheating of the device and to end up exploding or catching fire. A desperate measure to avoid further explosions and keep the company's image intact.
The curious thing about the news is that if there is a free replacement program for the user, you have to resort to these extremes. Samsung states that this measure is taken to avoid accidents to users who are not aware of the problem or who can not do without their smartphone for work.
The South Korean company has also clarified that it is a temporary patch that will arrive on September 20 to the devices . This patch will only reach devices sold in South Korea , since the replacement program is not proving as effective as expected, due to the high demand.
From my point of view, on the one hand you have to applaud Samsung for taking measures to avoid possible incidents, but on the other hand you have to criticize it for launching a terminal that does not meet minimum security requirements. It will be the user who judges.
