If you’ve ever wondered how much it will cost to Samsung the debacle of the Galaxy Note 7, here is the answer: about$ 3,000 million.
The South Korean company said this week that the interruption of your device, which withdrew from the market for the second time this week due to problems with the batteries, will hit its operating profit in a range of 3 trillion won between the fourth quarter of 2016 and first quarter 2017. That is about US$ 3,000 million.
The Note 7, which came to market in mid-August, it is assumed that would solidify the leadership of Samsung in the mobile telephony market after the great performance of your Galaxy S7. The company had begun to regain its shine after tripping the previous year with products mediocre.
Then the problems came from the battery of the Note 7, that caused some units recalentaran or burned. Samsung issued a withdrawal global the device last month. But then, some replacement units began to have the same problem. This caused Samsung to issue a second withdrawal this week, but now a permanent way to stop the production of the device. It is also offering owners of a Note 7 US$ 100 to change to another Samsung phone.
