Samsung has long urged all Note 7 owners to return their dangerous phone, but users don't want to give up their phone. According to a recent statement, it did not return in Europe Galaxy A full 7% of Note 33 owners. Someone might say that it is the owner's business, but with his dangerous phone he not only threatens himself, but also the people around him, which could be any of us. It was for this very reason that the airlines banned it Galaxy Note 7 on board their planes and the owner of the phone faces a hefty fine for a violation.
But how to force other users to return the phone? Samsung has a great plan. They will limit all models with a software update to slowly force their owners to return them, as the phones will only be able to be charged to a maximum of 60%. So if you bought the Note 7 for its great battery life, then you'll have to forget about it, as you'll now need to charge your phone almost twice as often.
Of course, Samsung isn't just interested in getting all the parts back to them immediately, they want to prevent a possible battery explosion with the update. Not all Note 7 models explode, some seem fine. And that is why some of their owners still refuse to return them. However, even with a safe-looking model, you never know when the battery will explode.
The restrictive update will start rolling out to users in Europe starting today. The company has even come up with a way to force the device to update, so if you were planning to avoid it, we have to disappoint you, it won't be possible. However, this is the latest move by Samsung to protect Note 7 owners and force them to return the unsafe phone to the company.
