According to US emergency orders, airline flyers who will bring Samsung Galaxy Note 7 device because the smartphone has exploded due to the battery overheating in about 100 incidents. The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and the Federal Aviation Administration declared that the smartphones will not be allowed overseas even if they have been shut off.
As per US Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, “We are acquainted with that exclusion the Galaxy Note 7 from airlines will bother some passengers, but the safety of all those abroad an aircraft must take priority. We are taking this additional step because even one fire event in flight poses a high risk of severe personal injury and puts many lives at risk.”
Samsung announced that it has halted manufacturing and sales of the Note 7 due to fire incidents, battery heat up, and device explosion. The company replaced all affected and unaffected units with new and safe devices, but still the device couldn’t work well.
The government informed flyers not to disobey the order, "Passengers who attempt to evade the ban by packing their phone in checked luggage are increasing the risk of a catastrophic incident. Anyone violating the ban may be subject to criminal prosecution in addition to fines."
Users who have Galaxy Note 7 were recommended by government to contact Samsung or their wireless carriers arrange replacement unit immediately. Under US law, the smartphone is considered as dangerous material so anyone found with the Note 7 will not be allowed to travel in an aircraft.
Since Samsung has halted production and sales of the Note 7 so people who pre-ordered the smartphone are given a choice to order Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S7 Edge instead. It’s bad luck, but if you want to stick with Samsung you can go for the flagship otherwise you can refund your money and buy a smartphone from any other company.
