Samsung Note 7 latest news and updates: Samsung fans remain loyal despite exploding battery issue

South Korean tech giant Samsung has recently gotten a bad rap because of the issue with the Note 7's exploding batteries, but according to a recent survey, Samsung fans would still buy Samsung mobile phones despite the company's recent issue with defective devices.

Samsung recently recalled millions of Note 7 smartphones worldwide to make up for the faulty hardware that has caused serious problems for several users from around the globe. But despite the recent recall, a recent poll found that most Samsung fans were not get affected by the recent issue with the Note 7.

The poll was conducted last Oct. 26 until Nov. 9 in all 50 states in America, and the poll found that a surprising 27% of people who knew about the recall would still consider getting a Samsung smartphone if they were to buy a phone.

On the other hand, 25% of people who didn't know about the recall stated that they would still buy a Samsung mobile device despite the recent issues that came with the infamous Samsung Galaxy Note 7.

Furthermore, the poll found that approximately 91% of current Samsung users would also consider buying another mobile phone under the Samsung brand.

However, 92% of Samsung users stated that they would no longer opt for a Galaxy Note, but they would still buy a Samsung device from another Samsung line up.

Since most Samsung users were found to be loyal to Samsung products, speculations suggest that Samsung's reputation wasn't really damaged by the Note 7's exploding battery issue and that the company can still release the Note 7's successor with ease.

On another note, there is still no official news as to when the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be released, but Note 7 users will be able to swap in their phones for the Note 8 in exchange for a 50% discount for the Note 7 successor.
