You can't send plain faulty batteries back.
And they still don't know why it happened, They tried 2 different batteries from different manufacturers and it was still exploding.
- ajkjk 10y agoEr... isn't it obvious? They could mail you the replacement battery?
- greglindahl 10y agoHow did you figure out that the battery is the problem? Samsung has yet to figure out a root cause, so it may be mechanical design, or ...
- ajkjk 10y agoNo, I mean, instead of recalling 2.5m phones, you replace 2.5m batteries. Which you can do. Because they're replaceable.
- andromeduck 10y agoSamsung tried shipping different batteries in the replacements but those still acted up. It's pretty unlikely replaceable battery which have done much.
- ajkjk 10y agoSure, but that doesn't change how much easier, cheaper, and less invasive to customers the replacement can be when you can take the batteries out.
