The issue is the battery and in some regions like Asia, there were no issues. It is a good phone overall and just needs a new battery cover to allow more tolerance for the battery slot. Just replace the batteries and case cover. Done.

in English what does it mean? they will sell Note 7 again?

are those second hand phones then? or never used Factory out device? i gave back my note 7 that time so it will now be in hand of another person as that refurbished thing?

i can buy one. it was epic piece of hardware.

Wonder what the refurbished price will be. Wouldn't mind an upgrade from a note 3

lol, tomorrow the S8 gonna be released live, i love how samsung market their devices, they do it perfectly, but no phone gonna make me change my new Mate 9, the battery life and CPU performance are amazing, no throttling at last.

Word of advice ...to those who are eagerly awaiting S8: be a little more patient and wait until, after yet another fiasco, Samsung starts distributing S8 R(efurbished)...

What's the photo quality like with the dual cameras?

Excellent, Black and white is unmatched if u like it, daylight photos are slightly better than S7E, which i had, low light can be better than S7E if there is lot of white light, like florescent, however on harsh conditions it can't compete with S7E, but picture is still usable. What i really like, is the ability to adjust the F.stop after u take the photo, u can blur or unblur any part of the image, it's very good. Overall cameras are great, P10 Plus got it even better and i hope Mate 10 will have it even better, but i think Samsung gonna do the best dual camera, if they at least do it as i think, one main camera with high MP for daylight, and secondary with bigger pixels lower mp and higher F.stop. I use my D5500 as main camera, so i'm not really impressed by any phone 🙂

Bought mate 9 last Saturday. Really good. Just rear finger scanner is awkward. Can't open my phone while it lays down on desk etc. edit: and no wireless charging.

Mate 9 stomps any phone I've used in terms of battery and cpu performance. it's super fast, it the ONLY phone that runs Tekken 6 60fps with hitches here and there, cause of the PPSSPP emulator(happens on PC too), no need for root to tweak settings to get it done, audio quality could be better but it's still good. Screen is excellent, FHD but crisp, sharp and super bright under sunlight, my average SOT as heavy user, with 4G on all the time and playing intensive games, is around 6-8hours, on my S7E i would have to charge it already.... If you are interested, P10P have same cameras as M9 but with f 1.8, low light would be much better, if needed, i can provide you samples. Note though, if u love photography like me, get a DSLR, it still the best damn thing 🙂

I'm curious to see how this will work out. I guess it's a good idea on Samsung's part, and if I'd go for a phablet, I might be interested, depending on the discount they give you as you most likely won't get a brand new, never touched factory model, but many many refurbished devices.
