"Samsung has received 96 reports of batteries in Note 7 phones overheating in the US, including 23 new reports since the September 15 recall announcement," reads a recall notice posted Thursday. "Samsung has received 13 reports of burns and 47 reports of property damage associated with Note 7 phones."Now, I know 96 phones out of 1.9 million in the US makes the chances of you getting a hot phone seem slim, but you really don't want to be the person to blame when your flight has to be re-routed because of the smoking phone in your bag. In fact, it's now illegal to use or charge a Note 7 on a plane in the US.
Not to mention all the unknowns, Perhaps the risk of overheating goes up as the Note 7 boho rose gold floral mandala on navy blue watercolor iphone case battery ages? We just don't know, and it's not worth the risk, The Galaxy Note 7 is dead, and Samsung wants its potentially explosive phones back, But data shows plenty of owners are ignoring the warnings, Samsung wants everyone to stop using the recalled Galaxy Note 7, but new data shows many people would rather risk literally burning a hole in their pocket than power down their shiny new phone, The Korean electronics giant and US Consumer Product Safety Commission again recalled the Galaxy Note 7 after replacement phones continued to overheat, The recall covers about 1.9 million phones in the US, Last month, Samsung said it had sold 2.5 million Note 7 phones worldwide..
Verizon may be rethinking its $4.8 billion deal for Yahoo. "I think we have a reasonable basis to believe right now that impact is material," said Verizon General Counsel Craig Silliman, according to the Washington Post. "And we're looking to Yahoo to demonstrate to us the full impact if they believe it's not. They'll need to show us that, but the process is in the works."A Verizon spokesman, when asked if a "material" finding kills the acquisition, said "the statement stands on its own. Nothing more."Yahoo didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Verizon in July said it would buy Yahoo for $4.83 billion and boho rose gold floral mandala on navy blue watercolor iphone case merge it with AOL, Since that time, Yahoo has faced a lot of bad press, Earlier this month, news reports said the US government had Yahoo surveil user emails for intelligence information, And last month, Yahoo disclosed hackers swiped personal information associated with at least a half billion Yahoo accounts, marking the biggest data breach in history, Last week, reports said Verizon has asked Yahoo for a $1 billion discount on its acquisition price, Then earlier this week, Verizon said it was investigating whether the hack had a material impact..
First published October 13, 12:26 p.m. PT. Update, 12:40 p.m. PT with Verizon comment. Verizon is leaning toward finding Yahoo's huge data breach was "material," which could end up being a deal-breaker. Verizon's $4.8 billion takeover deal for Yahoo may be doomed. The wireless carrier's general counsel has told some reporters, including the Washington Post, that Verizon is leaning toward declaring Yahoo's huge data breach a "material event." That likely means Verizon wouldn't have offered as much money -- or made a bid for Yahoo at all -- had it known about the hack earlier. The Washington Post said Thursday the decision likely will halt the acquisition.
