Update news Galaxy Note 7
VietNamNet Bridge – Around 500 Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphones have not been recalled in Vietnam, according to the Vietnam Competition Authority (VCA) under the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
Samsung Electronics Co Ltd said on Friday that a software update for Galaxy Note 7 smartphones will be released mid-December in the United States preventing them from charging and functioning as mobile phones, rendering them useless.
VietNamNet Bridge - Vietnamese spent more than VND600 billion in one week to buy iPhone 7s, far more than for Galaxy Note 7.
VietNamNet Bridge - Though Samsung has officially recalled Galaxy Note 7 due to the explosion risk, Vietnamese are still looking to buy the products.
Large multinational manufacturing conglomerates have capital and technologies, but lack sufficient number of good workers in their home countries. For that reason, as well as lower labor costs, they have invested in the country.
Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (005930.KS) halted sales of its Galaxy Note 7 smartphones on Tuesday and told owners to stop using them while it investigates reports of fires, fuelling expectations the tech giant will scrap the flagship device.
