We finally know why the Galaxy Note 7 loved burning up<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

We finally know why the Galaxy Note 7 loved burning up:- The Galaxy Note 8 is finally official, and all the rumors that preceded Samsung\u2019s Wednesday event turned out to be true, including battery details. Yes, the Galaxy Note 8\u2019s battery will inevitably be compared to the ill-fated Galaxy Note 7, although we probably know the conclusion: the new Note\u2019s battery must be just as safe as the Galaxy S8\u2019s. But Samsung\u2019s Note 8 event also helps us better understand what happened last year and seems to confirm one of the real reasons why the Galaxy Note 8 exploded.<\/span><\/p>\n

Samsung blamed battery manufacturers in early 2017 for the Galaxy Note 7 disaster, vowing to never let it happen again. Issues with the actual manufacturing of the battery and the quality assurance process were indeed revealed. But Samsung avoided as much as possible to point the finger to the phone\u2019s design or to its own bold wishes for the Note 7.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s phone had a massive 3,500 mAh battery, far bigger than what was available on competing devices.<\/span><\/p>\n

But this year\u2019s Note only comes with a 3,300 mAh battery inside. From the looks of it, Samsung appears to be afraid to go back to 3,500 mAh batteries for the phablet. It\u2019s also worth remembering that the Galaxy Note FE, the safe Galaxy Note 7 that Samsung just launched, has a 3,200 mAh battery.<\/span><\/p>\n

Talking to Samsung Mobile chief DJ Koh after the event, The Investor asked him why the Note 8 comes with a smaller battery than its predecessor, and whether Samsung plans to stop increasing the battery capacity due to safety issues. Here\u2019s Koh\u2019s response:<\/span><\/p>\n

There are some reasons why we can reduce the battery capacity. One of them is the 10-nanometer processor that has enhanced the phone\u2019s power efficiency by 30 percent. Users are also allowed to adjust their battery use based on their smartphone use patterns, which increases battery efficiency overall. Now I can guarantee battery safety. The phone will maintain more than 95 percent of battery capacity even after two years of use.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sure, that\u2019s all true. But Koh doesn\u2019t really respond to the question. Samsung\u2019s actions, however, seem to indicate that pushing battery size above a certain threshold may come with unwanted safety risks, especially for phones that have curved edges. That\u2019s in spite Samsung\u2019s renewed commitment to product quality.<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s not to say the Galaxy Note 8 will have worse battery life, or that we need 3,500 mAh batteries. It just seems that some of the Galaxy Note 7\u2019s specs may have been decided by execs thinking only of how to outperform Apple and how to have the handset in stores as fast as possible. And that\u2019s the kind of wrongdoing Samsung will probably never fully acknowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n
