Following reports of more Galaxy Note7s bursting into flames, Samsung on Monday released a statement saying it has stopped sales of the phone and is no longer exchanging original Note7s for ostensibly safe replacement phones.
The statement also encourages owners of replacement Note7s to power down their phones and request either full refunds or exchanges for the Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge. Moreover, Samsung reiterated its commitment to work with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission—the government body that issued an official recall for the first batch of Note7s that were sold prior to September 15.
