2016-12-09
Samsung is attempting to put the last nail on the Galaxy Note seven coffin and it's not going down without a fight the final software update rolling out December 19 will make it impossible to use the phone as a mobile device a September release had already limited charging capacity of the phone to a maximum of 60 percent but this one would completely eliminate the ability to recharge Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 came under fire shortly after its release after multiple users reported exploding batteries this forced the Korean company to recall all units of the note 7 making it one of the biggest tech chaos ghosts of 2016 yet despite offering full refunds and multiple incentives about 7% of note 7 users still refuse to give up their phones and even this software update may not stop them from using the phone if their Verizon customers the u.s. mobile carrier will not be rolling out the update because of safety issues Verizon released a statement saying it will not force the update on people who may not have another device to switch to in the midst of this holiday travel season because traveling with your note 7 in your pocket is a much safer option AT&T Sprint and t-mobile haven't yet said if they will be rolling out the update so I guess we haven't heard the last of the note 7 and for more tech news go to cnet.com in San Francisco I'm Vanessa and Ariana
