You are a piece of work, aren't you?
Hostage specifically said: "Two weeks back Samsung issued a report that of the millions of Note 7s that were shipped, only 26 had been reported to overheat or explode and of those 26, the claims turned out to be fake or suspicious."
Swordmaker: I call you a liar based on your claim there were only a total of 26 Samsung Galaxy "Note 7s that ever overheated or exploded", and then I provided a link to the US Government's Consumer Product Safety Commission Website on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall, citing these data, as of September 15, 2016:
"Incidents/Injuries:
Samsung has received 92 reports of the batteries overheating in the U.S., including 26 reports of burns and 55 reports of property damage, including fires in cars and a garage."
In addition, I provided a link to a legitimate news website, EndGadget, with the headline of "Over 70 Galaxy Note 7 phones have overheated in the US alone".
Both of these PROVE, without a doubt, that your claim there were only 26 overheating Note 7s and fires relating to them, and further that they were all fake, are lies.
I read your links. . . all three of them. The first came from when Samsung was still trying to denigrate the reports of their Note 7 even overheating at all, but the next day they announced their own in-house managed recall, not involving the government agencies, trying to avoid official involvement. Five days later, the US CPSC involved itself and made the recalls mandatory in the US due to the danger to the public. The other two were self-serving claims from Samsung that they had found that some of the claims were fraudulent, offering no proof of that, and that other claims had been withdrawn, implying that those also were suspicious. . . and one claiming that one injury from an exploding phone was not a Note 7 but rather from a Core 7 instead, so should not be counted as part of the problem. None of these addresses your claim that there were only 26 total Note 7 overheating or fires. None dispels the lie when your numbers don't even approach the actual world wide numbers of over 200 or more in just the first three of weeks on the market or so.
Incidentally, I could provide a lot more such links from the news media around the world on Samsung Note 7s catching fire, overheating, injuring people and property, and the numbers of incidents in each market where they were sold. I think I have proved the case you are not telling the truth with what I have presented to not bother presenting more.
Further, any claims that Samsung makes trying to minimize the damage are suspect, as they are trying to limit their financial downside in lawsuits.
As to your insult to me, YOU are the one stinking up this thread with your lies, trying to defend the indefensible! Even Samsung has raised the white flag and has cancelled the Galaxy Note 7 as a FAILED PRODUCT due to unresolvable design flaws. . . and sever adverse publicity that cannot, at this time, no matter what they do, be over come. Your own words condemn you as the liar, ignoring truth, cherry picking facturds to distort the facts that are as plain as day, and insulting anyone who dares to bring the facts to the discussion.
You've been told by MrsEmmaPeel to research things before you spew your nonsense. . . here's what you'd find before you make your claims on the Samsung Top Loading Washing Machines and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. . . which I already knew because I DO my research before I post, as you can see by the factual information that I do post.
Statement from CPSC Regarding Top Loading Washing Machines Made By Samsung
September 28, 2016The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is actively and cooperatively working with Samsung to address safety issues related to certain top-load washing machines made between March 2011 and April 2016. CPSC is advising consumers to only use the delicate cycle when washing bedding, water-resistant and bulky items. The lower spin speed in the delicate cycle lessens the risk of impact injuries or property damage due to the washing machine becoming dislodged.
CPSC and Samsung are working on a remedy for affected consumers that will help ensure that there are no further incidents. We will provide updated information to the public as soon as possible. Consumers can contact Samsung for more information. Consumers should report any incidents to CPSC via our website www.SaferProducts.gov.
