Now that the note 7 is officially recalled, what will this mean for those deciding to get a replacement note 7? How will the resale value be affected? Any other downsides to this?

They should do like the S7 and S7 Edge, buy 1 get 1 free... sell the fixed devices and honor there guarantee as if it were new,
I'm not too worried about the resale point if view but the one thing that does concern me is if Sammy see it as a failed device and lower or even drop support for it such as bug fixes and updates.

Its just my opinion but this wouldnt surprise me.
They must realize by now that the boat has sailed on the note 7-there is no recovering from something lile this. People are just not going to want these devices.
Im a die hard sammy fan for years now...have every note since the note 2 but im not even sure when i get my replacement device if i will even unseal it. Likely i will just dump it and go another route.
I also dont see development going big either for the same reasons.. developers dont want a device that doesnt have a strong following.

See I'm still on the fence it is such a great device and I can't see a decent alternative. I already own the s7 edge (promised to my wife) and as a lot of us was really looking forward to the note 7. See mine is on order not replacement so I can cancel any time but what else is there to match the note series. I been given a new del date of 29 Oct. Guess I can see how this rollercoaster goes for the next few weeks.

Same boat as you I will be due for another jump in no time and not sure if will stay on the note 7. Won't be surprise if it does not see a lick of update
Guys, i've been struggling with the same thoughts this week. I've come to the conclusion that there is simply no phone on the market that can match the Note 7 overall. This phone is the most beautiful, well designed and functional device on the market right now. Any other phone would feel like a downgrade for me. Of course, i could get the Oneplus 3 and wait another year or so for the Note 8 which i'm sure will be a beast, but i will miss the Note 7 and the Gear VR so much, it's really not worth it for me. This device meets every need i have.
Regarding the software, here's my conclusion. Samsung has huge credibility issues and big financial losses due to the recall.
However, buyers of the Samsung Note line of phones are the most pretentious, loyal and enthusiastic of all Samsung clients. Samsung cannot afford to let Note 7 buyers down. In the long run, abandoning the Note 7 is a bad decision. Instead, i believe Samsung will have a big Note 7 relaunch with lots of marketing, we will possibly see new software features, a fast and stable Nougat update, Daydream VR support, possibly a Note 7 Plus (6GB+128GB) launch in December, and anything possible that will keep people talking about Samsung and Note 7 in a positive light.
I choose to believe this, and if i will be let down i probably won't ever buy another flagship again.
What else am I going to buy though? There's still nothing else that has a stylus and is worth looking at.

People have trusted Honda after the Takata airbag debacle. They also came back to Audi after their unintended acceleration disaster. People still fly AA even though 251 people were killed in Chicago due to sloppy maintenance. GM just had their best year ever after going through bankruptcy and covering up an ignition switch defect that killed 124 people. VW will be fine after intentionally cheating on emissions tests. Samsung will be fine too. There's always some short term impact from these types of things but strong brands power through them.

Hi I'm absolutely new to these forums but have owned nexus phones since the nexus 5. And the sole reason I left other OEMs is the software availability with fast updates. And that's how it's been these past few years. ... And now I just bought the Nexus 6P from moving in from Nexus 6. And I've read that Google is abandoning it's nexus lines on certain EOL dates and unfortunately nexus 6P isn't so far away.
But it isn't what has me mad. It's the fact that nexus devices are not going to receive fast updates anymore or receive the same treatment the Pixel phones are going to get ( updates )... I can care less about Google exclusive features for the Pixel but don't delay our updates. Especially when we bought our phones cause of this reason ... Not a lot of people can afford to buy a new phone every year. So I don't want Google to do us dirty.
So if you agree with me and don't agree with Google's decision then let's rebel and refuse to buy Google's Flagship and comment showing your ideas and support... let's start putting some control in consumers hands.

Getting a bit sick and tired of Google's shenanigans after six years with Android.
Im Back to 6P a week ago before this bad news because this phone is great. I would like stay with him for next year and abandon android.

Same here. I mean I see no reason to switch my device of practically the same one i've already got. So I guess I'll either get me a used one for a cheap price OR, get a bran new one as I did with the 6P , like a Month or two before the new PIXEL XL will be launched.
I would love to own a new pixel xl but i cant justify the price. Ill stick with my 6p as it is the best phone ive ever owned. Maybe next years gPhone, if they learn their lesson.
Google is getting worse than Apple. It'd be nice to know if you could buy one device and it get timely stock Android updates for years. Old iPhones still getting updates, albeit they might be missing some features.

That is completely unfair to Apple. Their hardware is gorgeous and robust, and the software just works (as long as you only use it as "uncle Steve" intended) and is, usually, far far more polished than anything available on Android. Case in point - the gyro and compass. Why do I need to manually recalibrate the compass on all Android phones I have ever owned to have the arrow pointing in the direction I am facing? And why do I never need to do this on my wife's iPhone, going back to at least one day he iPhone 3? Why do so many of us install the ios emojis over the grossly ugly ones from Google? These may seem like small things but they are part of the overall user experience.
Google is far more like Microsoft from the late 90s than Apple. Me too approaches, rough around the edges, and best suited for the pocket protector crowd that is willing to deal with the occasional BSOD for the sake of the ability to dink around.

Google are like a "beta" company. Scrapping hangouts for Allo and Duo is crazy as well it all feels very rough around the edges and scattergunned. I mean having Allo and Duo locked to one device.... WTF?!

Hopefully, yeah. Depends also if we get the whole 8 then 8.1 on the Pixel 2.
I cannot believe how pissed everyone is over this. You all act like Google has 7.1 complete for this phone and they're just not sending because of pixel. I highly doubt it's complete....it's not done and it might not be done because of pixel but who cares. Didn't we just get 7.0? We need major updates monthly now? Everyone is talking about going to Apple, go for it, if you don't end up back on Android I'd be surprised. I recently bought my wife and iPad pro for her birthday, it froze twice during setup....it doesn't "just work" any better than Android and it's boring as hell. The screen on my phone seems 100x better than it is on the iPad. If you want Apple to keep updating your four year old device making it unusable that's up to you.
I am curious to see what you guys are going to do now that the Note 7 is officially gone. I am hopeful that it will be back in some shape or form.
I was going to get the the Note 7 as soon as it became available, but now I am on the market for a new phone.
So, I am curious... what are you going to do? Are you jumping ship? If so, which one? I honestly do not find ANY phone to get in lieu of the Note 7. Those that come close fall short of the Micro SD Card.
Already swapped out for a S7 Edge silver its good so far reason is i have the Gear VR ,256 gb sd card and a gear fit 2....plus the LG V20 isnt due untill the 28 and pre orders for sprint start on the 21 just could not risk my family. Im really sad but hey we are safe!

Oh nice! I didn't know about the LG V20. I looked at the specs, and it's not bad. It has the expandable memory, so that's a plus for me.
My only issue with the S7 is that it's too small.
Note 8...
Inviato dal mio SM-N930F utilizzando Tapatalk
Bought a new dual SIM Note 5 to keep me going until the return of the Note super phone. I am hoping that Samsung make available the Note 7 features (software) in the next release for the Note 5.
This would be better as a poll.....
Personally I'm just buying a Oneplus3 as if I only keep it for a month or 3, until either the V20 is available or the S8 plus includes a pen (heres hoping), I'll only lose around £50. If I bought something more expensive my loss becomes greater. Oneplus has quite a solid following so reselling will be easy. Also I'm not jumping straight into pre orders again after this. 30 days after launch is now my starting point as I reckon I've lost over £150 on accessories due to samsung mucking this up.
BTW is anyone returning the gift VR or hanging onto it? I'm keeping mine for the next note device I get....assuming the model isn't killed off too. That'd be maddening. I hope the note 8 will be similar but it must have a removable battery after this....if indeed the battery was the sole problem (which I doubt).
Please don't throw rocks....
I am torn between s7e and ip7+. I had before the s7e and was happy with it( trade it for n7) but never had an iPhone. So was thinking till next note to try one.
Advise please?
I had the iPhone 7 plus for 2 weeks. Far too large vs note 7, but very speedy and smooth. I just found the Apple ecosystem too closed and the iOS interface too maddening and it felt antiquated to me. I don't like their new bubble like notification center. Stereo speakers were quite tinny. Also, that damn home button controls everything as far as double tapping etc. To each their own I guess.

The next Note.
Yeap... I played today with a iPhone 7+ in store.
I just can't use it. Just can't. S7edge will be. Plus the gear S3 will come, so...
OnePlus 3. I wanted to be able to use my new gear VR, gear s2, and maybe a gear 360 so I was considering a galaxy s7, but oh well. kinda don't wanna deal with Samsung until maybe the Note 8 or maybe if the S8 is really superb. I heard it'll come with dual cameras so that'd be cool
I will wait for now and keep using the Note 7, not because I am reckless, but it's a calculated risk , for one there is zero cases of battery faults in my region (MENA) for both versions and I disabled fast charging and pay attention if it's warm.
If Samsung forced me to stop it through an update (or kill switch), which I expect to happen in the next few weeks, then it's back to the Note 5.
My big concern is that Samsung still has no idea why the Note 7 keeps catching fire, I am hoping they can find it and pinpoint the issue soon.
I wonder if people really powered down, or returned/exchanged their phones already.
I want to observe the next few days and see if another incident happens.
I added a poll - I meant to say OnePlus 3 instead of One Plus as an option. Unfortunately, I can't change it.
I still have my Note 5 but I love my Note 7 and I will not give it up.
I need 64 Gig and the S7E will not hack it.
The iPhone7+ really sucks.
It is a unique dilemma.
It's hard to believe that Samsung will not address this issue in some way and not just continue along like nothing happened.

Please add option in the poll to return to the Note 5.
Still going with my note 5, though i already planned and savings some money for note 7 (and will buy it on november) But with this fiasco, well.. i think lg v20 will be fine.. maybe huawei mate 9 or saving further to march 2017 for s8..

If you had the money to get a new phone moving from the Nexus 6p. Would you go ahead and get a better phone or would you pay to get the screen repaired. Deciding to keep the phone instead. The community here, while it's been amazing seems to be dying as more devs and users alike move on to OP3T or Pixel. I'm seriously thinking about dropping down $459 for a OP3T. If you had the money would you go ahead and move to another phone?

Personally I don't like Pixel. It's mostly on principle--to me its the device that killed the Nexus line (and not by competing but just because Google decided to.)
Beyond that I don't know that the price tag justifies upgrading. Bump in hardware, but no stereo speakers and in terms of real performance I don't think the user is gaining much if he drops the 6p for Pixel. Of course this is just what Ive read but for the price difference Id want more.
I'm not really seeing the developer scene die the way you describe. Feels like Ive got more good choices in roms & kernels than I need.
If I were going to buy a new phone I might take a closer look at the OPO 3T. But Im happy with the 6p for now.
Oh no I never meant to postulate that I was upset with the Nexus 6P line. There have been a lot of issues lately with the hardware that have caused countless others to have bootloops and then faulty battery issue drains that have to be fixed by RMAing. Hoping to god you get back a phone of equal use. I have read that one user had such a problem. He sent in 6 6p's and they all had the same exact issue every time. This of course sounds absurd and highly inaccurate. I made my decision as I'm going go keep my 6p. I'm taking it to get the screen fixed tomorrow.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
every device has life cycles, im sure as the device ages and price drops it'll be a very popular dev device because its a fairly high spec nexus device. a lot of popular devs buy almost every new device they like as it comes out. i wont be upgrading my 6p for another year or two, its very fast with f2fs and the other phones out atm arent a major improvement.
From one 6p user to another. Do you have any ideas where I can find a sturdy, streamlined case that protects both the glass and phone. I have a case, but it's rather bulky. I was using a skin when my phone shattered.

I just paid the deductible to have my phone replaced ($79). I think Huawei charges about double that for a screen replacement.
When Nexus Protect expires. I plan to pay the $140 for SquareTrade.
The 6p is long from outdated.
I believe that you should get a new phone between every 2-3 years.
On the status of my current 6P, or past devices, I've never damaged one of them before. My 6P did go dead once though... ?

I bought this one with a tempered glass protector. Not too bulky and comes up over the edges of the glass. It has worked for me so far.

I'm saving money to join op3t users. I'm really disappointed from Huawei support and I want to leave this device as soon as possible
I'm finding it difficult to leave the 6P. I used to be the guy that updated every yr but with the 6P I don't have that desire. It still feels snappy (most of the time) and it is very difficult for me to give up the stereo speakers. I don't know if I can go back to non-stock android. The camera speed was an issue for me but when I installed the Camera NX mod, it def made it more snappy. I'll reconsider again when I see what the Pixel 2 has to offer because the Pixel was not worthwhile for me, especially at that price but for now I am staying put.

I agree, while it may not be the nicest hardware, it is an all around solid performer and was a good price.
I have a few qualms with it, but in general I've been happy with it for sure. Definitely the best nexus phone that was released, especially when you factor in everything together.
I just bought a 6p, off of swappa so I hope development continues for long long time. I have now the ls990 lg g3, & there's a handful of ROMs, & back when the nexus 5 came out I had that, & development is still going on for that. So I am not worried. I know I'll never again touch an lg device, problems several times. So I can't wait for 6p to ship to me.

I experienced the bootloop of death after 6 months i bought the phone, I "enjoyed" a really bad battery life and a really really bad support from Huawei. My phone has been in assistance for 3 months and i own it since 12... 25% of the time i used my old nexus 5. Is this a good experience? I don't think so! Huawei and Google are not going to see my money again. Enjoy your phone guys and remember, you will have problems with this phone, don't think you are immune.
Once the Pixel 2 xl or the pixel 2 xxl (since rumor of a third larger model) comes out I'll switch...

Discussion about the new Axon 7
Honestly, the camera is the only viable upgrade needed in this phone. The processor gains aren't worth the hassle IMO. Maybe battery, maybe backlit capacitive buttons..
Just the battery would do it ... I take it any time

1. Will it be available globally ?
2. What about the price ?
Also it seems to be much more like OP3T with bigger screen and better audio and double cam (may not be better)
Will it blend ? Who knows...
What about the software? We all know that android 7 Beta became official one and they didn't fix all major issues, such as atos option not working. Any thoughts on this?
Duel camera setup sounds awesome
I would waiting Axon 8 where ever unveiled and not that version.
I think within summer ZTE will release successor of Axon 7 unless want Onleplus 5 to have 100% the only attention of users all around world at 400-450$€ market segment category.

Hardly confirmed by anyone who this phone is for. First leak/article said it was only for Government Agencies with a security focus.
Has anyone gotten it?
