It carries on the Note name
despite the catastrophic Note7
The first thing to know about the Note8 device is that it exists, and it’s called the Note8. Following the Note7 recall debacle—you know, that whole combusting battery nightmare—it wouldn’t be shocking if the company had decided that it was the end of the line for the Note series. But the Note line endures.
In a statement, DJ Koh, the president of Samsung Mobile, said that they “appreciate the relentless passion of the Note community.” (Would it be safe to call it a burning passion? Sorry.) In short, the company says it continued the Note series because of customer passion for it.
