James Russo I know right!!. I'll even try to find and buy more of them off other people then have very many to sell in the future. Thanks for the business plan!!. haha
They could just make an S device with an S-pen. Edit: Well yeah, it is what a Note is nowadays, hence the Note name can be (and likely will be) discontinued. Previously Note and S series differed more.
The best and true top 5 Not 7 replacements are #5 A deodorant with a lighter (bc its cheaper) #4 5X C4 ;) #3 A subscription to ISIS #2 2 commercial airplanes fly-tru stunt on the day with the same numbers as the national emergency phone number #1 Trump
iPhone 7 plus? WTF is you smoking sir? -reomove the Iris scanner -remove the amoled display -remove the S-pen -remove the bigger battery -remove fast charging -remove wireless charging -remove samsung pay -remove widgets and a complete change in OS. How the hell is this a similar phone?
Fair Judgement You can get wireless charging. Iris Scanner isn't a big deal to may people. Big battery doesn't mean better performance. iPhone 7 plus display is still super vibrant and nice looking. Also the iPhone 7 plus is more powerful. But everything else you got me
+dboymax1 actually waterproof is doable with a removable battery, but it's less scalable of course if you switch batteries, also the usual loss of a metal back(again there is the LG g5 style I've recommended for years, still).
][v][ I'll just buy it on the same day release, they already found the problem that caused the device to explode so they definitely have a fix for it by now.
Lack of wireless charging and no IPxx coverage is a big no no when you get used to these... I loved my LG G3 but with G5 and V20 they havent kept up with the competition. So bye bye LG.
Agreed, despite not being water resistant and such the Note 5 is still a good phone. I've had mine just over a year and I am still enjoying the experience.
Wave Man Mike it is a really good phone but most ppl had that one and want a replacement, like myself i was gonna get the note 7 cause it was the best phone out but it started blowing up so i kept my note 5, and is not the best anymore but the s7 is better i dont really wanna drop the note cause of the pen but fuck it i guess i wanna upgrade lol
AscottSauce the do keep talking about the note 7 about everything but it is not only the note 7 getting on fire iPhone too of course you don't see any media talk about over and over over I will never owned iPhone peace of crap
Hopefully this tragedy, doesn't kill off an excellent smart phone company. I feel badly for this huge financial loss for Samsung. I would also like to know in the end the true cause of the problem. What was causing the battery to overheat. I'm typing this on my Samsung Note 3. Still a excellent phone My next two purchases will be the LG V20 (still loving my V10) and the IPhone 7 Plus, (still loving my 6Plus). I may also opt for the Samsung 7 Edge. *footnote I have a expensive addiction to smartphones on a limited budget. Oh well. Great Video and line up for Note 7 replacements Marcus. You da Bomb! I'm a 63 year old Grandma who adores your take on technology. Are you loving that car!?
Don't worry about Samsung as a company, they can easily afford this loss. The major impact is just on future smart phone releases. This same company helped build the Burj Khalifa and the Petronas Towers. The Mobile division will take damage over the coming years but the company is 100% fine.
Nokia thought the same thing when they had a massive battery recall, something like this came wreck a companies reputation with customers. As someone that is now in the process of a second recall from Samsung I can tell you that I am not going with another Samsung phone.
RT A tragedy is something that happens and cannot be avoided. This is a huge fuck you to all their customers. They KNEW the phone was faulty and still sold it because they tought they could get away with it. Even one of their washing machines exploded because they're cutting corners in supposedly premium products. Fuck Samsung.
Kate De Aragon maybe, but it's harder to use anything but another Note once you've used one. I used an S7 Edge when my Note 4's screen was getting replaced by Samsung. It was tough. Couldn't wait to get my Note back. The S-PEN is just too valuable to me.
I know you are off your pills atm but CHILL. having a stylus for fooling around and stuff would be pretty cool imo cause I like to doodle, plus you can text with it writing style
being able to close our music app is also cool. watching 1440p video, battery lasting us the entire day... and an actually reasonable price... those things are pretty sweet.
The thing is all the exploding note 7's seem to explode in America which means the problem must have more to do with the chipset they had in the phone. 0 exploded in UK and they had the exynos chip in them. Correct me if I am wrong but I'm sure Snapdragon chips have always had over heating issues.
lol if any other company's device would have EXPLODED then got replaced then exploded again the internet would shut that company down. Samsung fanboys are definitely unique.
I want the Note 7 honestly I like the pen, the waterproof, the gif capture and the dual screen are all things that I wanted. My contract is almost ready for an upgrade and the Note is what I wanted this is annoying.
Yeah, I agree. I have the S7 Edge and it has all of the features that you mentioned, other than the pen (although you can buy one without the features.)
What if it explodes before you manage to get a replacement? Wouldn't it be less risky to get an iPhone 7+, then get the Note 8, especially considering that iPhones - whilst they're shit - don't tend to massively drop in price, like Androids do?
Yeah man!!!! TOTALLY RECOMMENDED. I love my 1+3 64GB SOFT GOLD <3 I have used it/had it for now a couple of months. 2-3 months or so. SO GOOD PHONE! VERY AWESOME. Sure, it doesnt have android nougat and no stylus, and its slightly smaller. But its 399€....Huge value. I can say 1+3 is awesome. I fully recommend the one plus three. Amazing phone! =) Also I recommend the LG V20
Bit annoyed my 2 year contract is over and there's no phone on the market I want and I don't want to wait an entire year for the Note 8 First world problems
Matej Repta I'm on a plan there's no cost for the upgrade. I can keep my note 4 and keep paying $80 a month or I can get a brand new phone and pay $80 a month.
Months later and my Note 7 shows no sign of failure or overheating. I guess not charging my phone under pillows or in 120 degree vehicles has paid off.
Chase P. Mines is great, no problems. something of this makes you go hmm. none of the retail stores that had them plugged up on display for consumers to have a hands on experience have blown up. If they really look at some of these incidents they find out the real reason why.
Brenda Wiggins My guess from looking at the demonstrations of people puncturing or damaging the internal batteries to force them to catch fire is that many if not all of these phones were either severely defective or mistreated or just outright faked for publicity/sabotage. I am very gentle with my devices, so I have a clear conscious carrying the phone in my pocket.
I know righht? The only phone that had a pen, Water resistant, AMOLED Screen, Large but slick design, Thin but not too thin and the bezel mini subtle curve to the screen with a micro SD slot! What phone has that? NOTHING. The closet is the S7E but the physical design is just not the same.
Yes there was. Plenty of people are in the same boat as me where we still aren't sure what phone to get. The Note 7 was shaping up to be a really really good phone that no other Android phone could've been able to touch.
Patrick Star so popular.. almost no one owns a galaxy except those poor ass mexicans.. I love my iPhone 7 256Gb it shits on the note 7 and it doesn't fucking explode.
The S7 Active is also a great contender. I know that it's an AT&T exclusive but it doesn't look too bad in person, ESPECIALLY the new Black Color for it. It looks great and it has all the features the S7 has PLUS a 4000 mah battery.
Thanks Marques. I love your videos and came here exactly for this reason! This really helps me to know what is out there since I JUST got an official new recall for my replacement note 7. I haven't felt much frustration until this moment but I've got to realize how first world this problem is and move on. I'll probably go with the S 7 edge or Note 5.
MKBHD... The thing that I admire you for is... The fact that you are not biased... I know many other youtubers can be like this... But, I think that you do it best.. You are able to look at every positive and every negative fairly !! Top notch stuff!! Keep it up my friend! You also play frisbee which is awesome!!
Mike Hunt Mark my words.. if Samsung were to release a Note 8.. I won't think twice about buying.. That Note 7 was one hell of a phone, such a shame it had those issues
wizkid01 I just wrote on the site and samsung Instagram page letting them know the note8 will be purchased by me and don't stop making the note series. it's literally no competition for this phone
Alina Johnson agreed. there is no competition for the note series, hope Samsung realises this and and decides to continue with it. I must say again, that note 7 was a bloody good phone, right now I feel really angry and frustrated that I can't own one! any ideas on when to expect the note 8?
Diogo Usami best replacement is Gs7 edge... iPhone 7 is nothing like the note 7... people who prefers android will choose android.. I prefer Apple so I chose iPhone ( even though it's worse than android )
Awesome Person The iPhone 7 Plus is still a great phone. The specs are plenty, plenty high for iOS and I have never experienced lag on an iPhone 6/6S. Samsung makes great hardware, maybe even the best, but they just don't update there phones' software, and I want to have my phone for at least 4 years. That's probably why people stick with Apple, they simply update their products software for a very long time. The NOTE 7 will still be missed by many Apple and Android users, it was a solid piece of hardware.
Mario Plus, the iPhone's software is completely optimised and running natively on the phone making the specs worth more. Remember 1GB is somewhat like the equivalent of 2.5G of RAM on an Android phone. Same measurement for CPU speed.
While I agree with you, both of my note 7's were solid. They were also the 'coolest' running android phone I've ever had (temperature). The problem I see with keeping it is software support. I can't imagine Samsung will spend resources updating a phone that has been completely discontinued/recalled. Getting the latest software is a huge part of the experience. I placed my order for the pixel xl this evening. Hoping for the best.
Kevin bond do you realize how selfish that is? it's not just about you, what about those around you? I hope you're kidding that you would really keep a phone that is known to have issues like this phone has.
Brett Smith their number one priority is your safety? I don't think so, if that were true they wouldn't have rushed production to fend off their closest rival, twice. The number one and ultimate priority for ALL companies is profit. Everything else is incidental
I feel like this tragedy shows something great to samsung, meaning they are going to put more time and quality into their products now. So sometimes out of the bad must come good.
To everyone who is still rocking the Note 7, not only for safety reasons should you return the Note 7 but... 1. In the coming months eBay, Amazon, and other sites will probably ban it so you wont be able to sell it or swap it 2. Don't expect any software updates 3. You wont be able to travel via airline with your phone, period. (As a Note 7 owner myself, I hate that it must go, but please people return it now or be stuck with a explosive paper weight forever!)
Love what you've done to fix the echo man, sounds amazing, also you look exceptionally good in this light and space (no harm in a guy saying that to another guy)👌👌 ALSO studio tour anytime soon?
It definitively was a great phone. It had a fire processor, a fire display, a fire front and rear camera, and fire battery life. This phone is on fire!
nothing can replace a phone like note 7, and definitely not the iphone7 and pixel, they are no match to the productivity and awesomeness of the note line.
When you rush to try and beat iPhone shit is going to happen, Samsung already has a costumer base, they shouldn't have rushed just to beat the launch of the iPhone which is always in September.
Rush to beat iPhone, the note series predates and out guns the iPhone* by about 4 years. This is not a race against iPhone issue, rather a major fuck up issue. *Edit for the pendants - iPhone plus I was referring to.
I don't think I'll be giving up my note 7 soon. have been considering the s7e but I need the active digitizer and I need the high-end camera plus I went all in with usbc adapters and accessories to get a phone with microb. will wait for a note 8 for sure
I keep hearing this I may have to do this since the new update won't allow my phone to charge past 60%, it was pushed through ughh my phone was fine though!!! 😡
TheMusketITuckedIt there's a list. For my V10, The screen started having persistency issues and when you plug it in at 5% with the included charger, the indicator would start freaking out and the phone will shut down and the phone would suddenly be at 0%. When you plug in headphones, you would sometimes need to pull it out slightly, something I associate with cheap audio devices. Thing is, I returned the phone for a new device for these issues and the new device had the same issues.
I got the LG Stylo and it was fine until I updated to marshmallow from lollipop, then I started having all those problems, 1) turn up the brightness and it overheats and the screen flickers 2) battery hits 15% and gets a infinite boot loop 3) random black screens of death at any time of the day 4) home buttons completely disappearing off the screen 5) camera disappearing off the screen 6) plug in headphones and the UI crashes...
I find it kinda ironic that the company that was known for it's "Removable" batteries now have to pull it's best phone off the market because the "Non-removable" battery is unstable. Had they stuck with the Removable option than all they would have had to do is fix the batteries and send the customers the fixed replacement battery. Samsung is learning the hard way.......
We don't know if it's the battery itself causing these issues, and Samsung changing battery manufacturers obviously didn't fix the issue so I'm assuming there's something else wrong with the phone that causes the batteries to become unstable.
Kwanza Toney I freaking love this phone. As great as the S7 Edge is, the Note 7 is just heads and shoulders above. The software is cleaner, more responsive, battery life is phenomenal (which is odd because it has 100 Mah less than the S7 Edge) just everything is a step above. I'm sold. just hope the carriers don't blacklist the phone, or Samsung remotely disables it.
Jason Hatherlee Which there isn't a problem with. As long as other financial priorities are taken care of go for, but that still wouldn't keep me on such an old phone
Kelsie LeCrone Granted, he did throw it in as like an honorable mention, but I guess it is a year old and the S7s are much more up to date with better tech and software
they really should've made the battery replaceable on the replacement Note7. That way if they still fkd it up a 3rd party could've made a battery for it...
They pretty much found that the battery may not be the only issue with it. After the first recall they went with a different battery supplier and it still had issues.
James Dickerson the time and money required to redisign the phone isn't justifiable for a yearly released product. That's why they're discontinuing them and working on next year's.
Patrick Star I used to have a nexus 5, then I switched to iPhone 5s, then to OP1, then to 6s, and now I have the OP3 and it's nice, sure, but it just feels so... unoptimized. The camera app is slow and the whole android ecosystem feels quirky as fuck (Maybe it's Oxygen OS?). More RAM does not make it a better phone. I have yet to try the iPhone 7 but I'm guessing it's way more optimized for everyday use... If one wants a phone that they'll want to use for more than one year then it's the iPhone for sure. It only costs 300$ more, but it's probably 2x the OnePlus in usability.
***** lol only 300$ more. What do u mean only. That's enough to get another phone lol. And I also have a op3 and haven't experienced any of the issues you are mentioning. When it was first released it has ram issues but those are fixed now and yes iPhone will always be the best optimized phone cause of iOS but it's def not a 300$ difference. I'll wait the extra second for the camera to open and enjoy my money elsewhere
The ghost of the Note 6 came back to take the Note 7 along with him. RIP Note's.
Elite Exposure I agree
😂
looooooooooool
that is some halloween story you have there.
i need the ghost of note 6 to juice my note 4
Who else thinks the few Note 7s that will remain out there and don't explode will become vintage and start to sell at outrageous prices?
I have one. Will switch it off and wait till 2025 and then sell it for $5,000
Trevor Just like what happened with the iPod Classics haha!
James Russo I know right!!. I'll even try to find and buy more of them off other people then have very many to sell in the future. Thanks for the business plan!!. haha
Trevor No problem! LOL
Vintage is the wrong word.
Archaeologists just discovered that early humans used Note 7's to start fires.
Finally. A good Note7 joke!
lmao
I thought the Note 7 was the one who kill the dinosaurs!
We should give free notes to ISIS, than boom!!
Research has found that showers of Note7 lead to the extinction of dinosaurs. RIP dinosaurs and now RIP Note7
I really hope the Note line doesn't get taken down...
I consider the Notes BETTER than the Galaxy S' phones.
They could just make an S device with an S-pen.
Edit: Well yeah, it is what a Note is nowadays, hence the Note name can be (and likely will be) discontinued. Previously Note and S series differed more.
that's what note is

when u realize that all of this wouldn't happen if the note 7 had a replaceable battery 🤣
Yash Pradhan or kept its name - note 6
I agree, screw waterproof, I don't swim or shower with a phone, so I too would rather have removable battery....
V20 is your friend and soulmate.
+dboymax1 actually waterproof is doable with a removable battery, but it's less scalable of course if you switch batteries, also the usual loss of a metal back(again there is the LG g5 style I've recommended for years, still).
Yash Pradhan you do realize it wasn't the battery causing the issue if it had been all the replacements would have been fine
Nothing can replace such a masterpiece
Exactly... I'm still using mine... and no problem
I am too, but gonna trade in for S7 edge, I know how ppl are, "hey that guy has a Note 7!"

kelcey burris sr It really sucks, safety mixed with overreaction
Chr1Shawn I wouldn't say overreacting. They have to make sure everyone is safe
Number one should be the upcoming Galaxy S8 :)
Nightcore Lab yes I can't wait
then you have to wait another 3 month to make sure it doesnt explode
][v][ I'll just buy it on the same day release, they already found the problem that caused the device to explode so they definitely have a fix for it by now.
Nightcore Lab have you bought the S8 yet?

How dare you mention the iPhone as a replacement for the Note 7. Might as well get a real sack of apples

Lack of wireless charging and no IPxx coverage is a big no no when you get used to these... I loved my LG G3 but with G5 and V20 they havent kept up with the competition. So bye bye LG.
the g3 was terrible
Compared to what was out at the time, the G3 wasn't bad.
$700+ for same boxy design, 3GB of RAM and 2900 mAh battery? Blah no thanks.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 should be on the list.
It's the last one...

LG V20 FTW! Like the only phone left with a removable battery. smh
Don't worry about Samsung as a company, they can easily afford this loss. The major impact is just on future smart phone releases. This same company helped build the Burj Khalifa and the Petronas Towers. The Mobile division will take damage over the coming years but the company is 100% fine.
The only loss will be the name Note, they will likely be called 'pro' as in 'Galaxy S8 Pro' next year.
Nokia thought the same thing when they had a massive battery recall, something like this came wreck a companies reputation with customers. As someone that is now in the process of a second recall from Samsung I can tell you that I am not going with another Samsung phone.

You're a child you shouldn't even have a smartphone in the first place.
the name note will probably be dropped by Samsung as people will always remember the note 7 disaster so it most likely wont ever come out
RIP Note 8.
The thing is all the exploding note 7's seem to explode in America which means the problem must have more to do with the chipset they had in the phone. 0 exploded in UK and they had the exynos chip in them. Correct me if I am wrong but I'm sure Snapdragon chips have always had over heating issues.
exynos chips are way better in handling temperature as per performance.
Saiham Rahman Oh yeah that's true. I don't get why Samsung didn't just use them over the Snapdragon chip
maybe they couldn't keep up with the production. exynos ain't cheap i think
Saiham Rahman Yeah that's true
South Korean Notes exploded too
The best replacement for a galaxy note 7 is a time bomb.
Bibasik7 just a clock bro
Bibasik7
The phone is now endorsed by ISIS.
The bomb comments are old now move along.
Bibasik7 nice one XD
it's not old, it's a fact lol. RIP
NOOOOO!!!! :'(

DOGO REUNION
DOGE get rid of your profile picture.
U used note 7 as grenades to attack cate army:0
How about no.
I'm happy with my note 5 and I can wait for a note 8
That's the positive way to look at it :-)
lol if any other company's device would have EXPLODED then got replaced then exploded again the internet would shut that company down. Samsung fanboys are definitely unique.
Prateek Kumar everybody does mistakes dude.
the point I'm making here is note 8 when it releases will be the greatest till date.
should I go for S7 edge or Iphone7plus or should I wait for S8 or Note8? 😶
current device : Note 4 😏
malik faizan bhai I suggest u look into lg v20 or else there is ip7 plus for u to go anyday
Note 7 is the Concorde of Smartphones
I dont think a lot of people watch Air crash today ...
right now it's the spruce goose.
Sure, if it was fast.
You mean the Space Challenger of smartphones.
Nice lol, it was mostly canceled because of high operating costs though
I still have my Note 4 and am content!
note 2 ftw :'''D
Just replaced my Note 4 with a iphone 7 plus today. Im happy so far, used to be an android fanboy that wouldn't even consider an Iphone.
Me too, I haven't upgraded mainly because I don't like the glass back.
My Note 1 recently passed away after ±5 years, but was still working for me up to its departure.
no content is in the video
I'll rather take an exploding note 7 than any iPhone
same
I don't really like these nonsensical autism comments but this one is spot on xD no offense
holy fuck I just realised that you have Dabin's album art as avatar! you rock! (even tho you insult people :D)
+Infax nice Apple fanboyism ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
K
no headphone jack=no money
blowing up = no money
aryan gandhi so get the s7... It doesn't explode
elephone s7 = all the features and saves u lots of money
I want the Note 7 honestly I like the pen, the waterproof, the gif capture and the dual screen are all things that I wanted. My contract is almost ready for an upgrade and the Note is what I wanted this is annoying.
Yeah, I agree. I have the S7 Edge and it has all of the features that you mentioned, other than the pen (although you can buy one without the features.)
I'm keeping my Galaxy Note 7..... until Note 8 comes
nateliontrueleo 404 what all my friends are doing
What if it explodes before you manage to get a replacement? Wouldn't it be less risky to get an iPhone 7+, then get the Note 8, especially considering that iPhones - whilst they're shit - don't tend to massively drop in price, like Androids do?
im getting the Iphone7+ i wanna keep it
nateliontrueleo 404 they just sent a mandatory recall telling people to turn off the phone
i really love my note but shit i dnt have a choice my phone gets kinda hot when charging....sometimes smh i neva had a iphone its time now
Watching on my note 7 too, what about the one plus 3
i was thinking the same. Such an underrated phone :(
Yeah man!!!! TOTALLY RECOMMENDED.
I love my 1+3 64GB SOFT GOLD <3 I have used it/had it for now a couple of months. 2-3 months or so. SO GOOD PHONE! VERY AWESOME. Sure, it doesnt have android nougat and no stylus, and its slightly smaller. But its 399€....Huge value.
I can say 1+3 is awesome. I fully recommend the one plus three. Amazing phone! =) Also I recommend the LG V20
me too lol
me too lol
Doesn't work on Verizon or Sprint so that's a no.
RIP Note 7..this phone was da bomb :(
Bit annoyed my 2 year contract is over and there's no phone on the market I want and I don't want to wait an entire year for the Note 8
First world problems
im in the same situation..
Lawless Studios Worse part is if I get a new phone I'll be stuck with it for 2 years.
No note until the 9 if I do that
is there anything bad with your current phone? I just bought iPhone 7 with at least 3 years in mind... leaves more money for alcohol :D
Matej Repta I'm on a plan there's no cost for the upgrade.
I can keep my note 4 and keep paying $80 a month or I can get a brand new phone and pay $80 a month.
thats good then :)
Please don't say iPhone 7+
😔
iPhone 7+ is superior that most android phone's can't deny that fact. And i use HTC before calling me apple fan.
why? thats its name
no the one plus 3 is
True, but literally any flagship is better than most Android phones, because there are tons of affordable Android phones.
Months later and my Note 7 shows no sign of failure or overheating. I guess not charging my phone under pillows or in 120 degree vehicles has paid off.
Chase P. Mines is great, no problems. something of this makes you go hmm. none of the retail stores that had them plugged up on display for consumers to have a hands on experience have blown up. If they really look at some of these incidents they find out the real reason why.
Brenda Wiggins My guess from looking at the demonstrations of people puncturing or damaging the internal batteries to force them to catch fire is that many if not all of these phones were either severely defective or mistreated or just outright faked for publicity/sabotage.
I am very gentle with my devices, so I have a clear conscious carrying the phone in my pocket.
So you're fine as long as you don't plan on flying anywhere.
Like anyone would try to make their "safe" note 7 blow up on a plane.
More that people (including the TSA) will hate you if they recognize your phone.
i so sad this was the 1st phone that i really wanted to get in a long time. guess it wasnt meant 2 b
I know righht? The only phone that had a pen, Water resistant, AMOLED Screen, Large but slick design, Thin but not too thin and the bezel mini subtle curve to the screen with a micro SD slot! What phone has that? NOTHING. The closet is the S7E but the physical design is just not the same.
Yeah, but since the note 7 stopped selling, might as well get note 5 :/
Austin Deaver Same :((
Austin Deaver me too. i was getting a Note 7 so now i use a Galaxy A9 which is not as good, but im not complaining for screen size
there was no point of this video but as always stilled loved it
He explained the POINT at the start! Dude wtf?
Yes there was. Plenty of people are in the same boat as me where we still aren't sure what phone to get. The Note 7 was shaping up to be a really really good phone that no other Android phone could've been able to touch.
What smartphone are you using?
Infax: Troll alert!
He's a UA-cam blogger so of course he's going to make a video
i prefer still without phone in order to get that shittty iphone 7 plus
Youness TAGHZOUT idk why everyone's making a big deal about note 7... Galaxy s series are more popular
Patrick Star no note is the best i switch to s7 edge but note 7 is the best of 2016
Patrick Star features, no other phone can pack as much features as note series.
Patrick Star so popular.. almost no one owns a galaxy except those poor ass mexicans.. I love my iPhone 7 256Gb it shits on the note 7 and it doesn't fucking explode.
no its not that bad, my mate has one and its good
I'm surprised the note 5 isn't in the video, I know it's a bit older now but would it not be another logical choice?
didn't get far enough in the video.. ignore my comment 😂
Radioactive Snowman surprised....17 people didn't get far enough along with you
Radioactive Snowman Only 64gb of memory. I can't do anything with that.
Dude your videos and reviews are really awesome. I am a regular viewer of all of ur reviews and other videos.
The S7 Active is also a great contender. I know that it's an AT&T exclusive but it doesn't look too bad in person, ESPECIALLY the new Black Color for it. It looks great and it has all the features the S7 has PLUS a 4000 mah battery.
@Marques Brownlee :it's a challenge for you can you suggest a single smartphone with Stylus functionality and features
still waiting for your reply
Khan desh even the Samsung S series can not match the Note series
Khan desh I think he won't answer ,maybe.
***** But I will lose better camera , IP68 ,new features ,expandable storage ... can't compromise these features
Khandesh? or Khan Desh?
Thanks Marques. I love your videos and came here exactly for this reason! This really helps me to know what is out there since I JUST got an official new recall for my replacement note 7. I haven't felt much frustration until this moment but I've got to realize how first world this problem is and move on. I'll probably go with the S 7 edge or Note 5.
MKBHD... The thing that I admire you for is... The fact that you are not biased... I know many other youtubers can be like this... But, I think that you do it best.. You are able to look at every positive and every negative fairly !! Top notch stuff!! Keep it up my friend! You also play frisbee which is awesome!!
Samsung will never be the same after this Mark my words
Especially in my eyes
Mike Hunt Mark my words.. if Samsung were to release a Note 8.. I won't think twice about buying.. That Note 7 was one hell of a phone, such a shame it had those issues
Mike Hunt What's you're reasoning for that though?
wizkid01 I just wrote on the site and samsung Instagram page letting them know the note8 will be purchased by me and don't stop making the note series. it's literally no competition for this phone
Alina Johnson agreed. there is no competition for the note series, hope Samsung realises this and and decides to continue with it. I must say again, that note 7 was a bloody good phone, right now I feel really angry and frustrated that I can't own one! any ideas on when to expect the note 8?
Iphone 7 plus >>>>>> note 7 overall
Junaka
Found the fanboy.
Giorat23 That opinion though
Giorat23 besides blowing up all you said is false
Baring the note 7, the note line is far superior the the iPhone plus series.
Junaka even a fire sale 🤣
I think that Samsung should sell note 7 to ISIS.
hhh
I mean hhhh
hhh
I mean hhhh
Sad thing is Isis likes rocking iPhones lol
And the 6th alternative...Note FE. Using it for more than half a year,loving every bit of it. 😍
>best replacement for a samsung galaxy note 7
>s7 edge - hmm okay
>iphone 7+...
>closes video
Diogo Usami best replacement is Gs7 edge... iPhone 7 is nothing like the note 7... people who prefers android will choose android.. I prefer Apple so I chose iPhone ( even though it's worse than android )
what about note 5 ...lots cheaper compared to n7 and has all note features
Sajid A s7 edge isn't actually that expensive and i think it's a lot better than n5
nor does note 5 have SD card supprot, making it worse.
Viper r u dumb
he did mention it
Sajid A i had one man its great
Switching from a Note 7 to a iPhone 7 Plus is about as likely as switching a PlayStation 4 for the first Nintendo DS.
Awesome Person The iPhone 7 Plus is still a great phone. The specs are plenty, plenty high for iOS and I have never experienced lag on an iPhone 6/6S. Samsung makes great hardware, maybe even the best, but they just don't update there phones' software, and I want to have my phone for at least 4 years. That's probably why people stick with Apple, they simply update their products software for a very long time. The NOTE 7 will still be missed by many Apple and Android users, it was a solid piece of hardware.
Mario Plus, the iPhone's software is completely optimised and running natively on the phone making the specs worth more. Remember 1GB is somewhat like the equivalent of 2.5G of RAM on an Android phone. Same measurement for CPU speed.
It's cool to see your studio start coming together subtly in the background from video to video.
There is no replacement. my 7 is working just fine.
tactical nuke incoming
It works fine until it explodes :)
While I agree with you, both of my note 7's were solid. They were also the 'coolest' running android phone I've ever had (temperature). The problem I see with keeping it is software support. I can't imagine Samsung will spend resources updating a phone that has been completely discontinued/recalled. Getting the latest software is a huge part of the experience. I placed my order for the pixel xl this evening. Hoping for the best.
Kevin bond do you realize how selfish that is? it's not just about you, what about those around you? I hope you're kidding that you would really keep a phone that is known to have issues like this phone has.
I cannot believe MKBHD chose Google Pixel over HTC 10!
Md. Abdul Ahad Chowdhury cause it's way better
^
***** ehh, I wouldn't really say "powerful" if ur talking in the sense of performance. The Pixels are rocking the latest Snap 821 chips
***** ;)
There is no replacement, I'm keeping my Note 7
hope u catch fire..ahahahahah
Joshua Mikesell I'm pretty sure they're gonna brick the phone. Samsung's #1 priority is our safety so they'll probably force you to return it.
I'm keeping mines fuck a fire
Brett Smith their number one priority is your safety? I don't think so, if that were true they wouldn't have rushed production to fend off their closest rival, twice. The number one and ultimate priority for ALL companies is profit. Everything else is incidental
You will not be getting updates or support for it.
..as usual, the best explanations about tech coming from Marques Brownlee.
He recommended and iPhone and the Pixel?
You're losing credibility with me...
Pixel is great. iPhone is not.
Carson Saldanha The iPhone's ok. I have a 6s and don't recommend the ip7 tho.
At least the iPhone doesn't double as an IED
Samsung lost it's credibility when it started exploding and shit like it was New Year's Eve already
+Carson Saldanha would rather have an iPhone than a nuke 7
im gonna buy the note 7 now.
Rebel ✊
Dank Penis John Same, get em whilst they're cheap, they're stunning phones
Dank Penis John same
it's a collector's item now......
Allah Akbar.
the note 7 saved my life when I was trapped in Siberia battling with a bear
you lost me when you brought apple into this
ikr
Lewis Kelly did you stop watching the video. Because if you did, you missed out.
K_Q_ J_H no headphone jack, expandable storage, or removable battery.That's pretty important to me.
iOS, nuff said.
iOS is a pleasant experience.
And what about the Note 5 or 4? I mean those are pretty much the closest thing you can replace your Note 7 with, and they are still pretty good.
Baptiste DL good but not better than gs7 edge
+Patrick Star Not if you want the S Pen.
Johnny Doe factual stuff.. but yea s pen and larger screen is main reason people buy note
I feel like this tragedy shows something great to samsung, meaning they are going to put more time and quality into their products now. So sometimes out of the bad must come good.
BTW you should totally give me your Tesla.
To everyone who is still rocking the Note 7, not only for safety reasons should you return the Note 7 but...
1. In the coming months eBay, Amazon, and other sites will probably ban it so you wont be able to sell it or swap it 2. Don't expect any software updates 3. You wont be able to travel via airline with your phone, period.
(As a Note 7 owner myself, I hate that it must go, but please people return it now or be stuck with a explosive paper weight forever!)
Love what you've done to fix the echo man, sounds amazing, also you look exceptionally good in this light and space (no harm in a guy saying that to another guy)👌👌 ALSO studio tour anytime soon?
There isn't an replacement for note 7.
s7 edge
Keyshawn Scott 12 not a replacement.. i traded 2 in for the note 7
yes just got one in love😍
man watching this i felt like loosing note 7 is like my beloved gf has just passed away and i have tons hot chicks to replace her.
But none of them will hold a candle to your deceased gf
Any with a removable battery?
your gf is too hot to handle that's why she left you
Get rid of her quick otherwise she will take u with her too
It definitively was a great phone. It had a fire processor, a fire display, a fire front and rear camera, and fire battery life. This phone is on fire!
nothing can replace a phone like note 7, and definitely not the iphone7 and pixel, they are no match to the productivity and awesomeness of the note line.
When you realize this could've all be avoided if the note 7 had a removable battery.
When you rush to try and beat iPhone shit is going to happen, Samsung already has a costumer base, they shouldn't have rushed just to beat the launch of the iPhone which is always in September.
Sadly, if it was released after the iPhone 7, people would immediately dismiss it.
I hope they bring back removable batteries. The LG V20 has a good design.
Rush to beat iPhone, the note series predates and out guns the iPhone* by about 4 years. This is not a race against iPhone issue, rather a major fuck up issue.
*Edit for the pendants - iPhone plus I was referring to.
Stephen Butler How does the Note series predate the iPhone?
How does it predate the iPhone? The iPhone was the FIRST "Smartphone"
Buy an LG V20?
It isn't even released yet.
then wait....
No shit. MKBHD talks about the LG V20 like it is out and can be purchased.
Just pointing out that it hasn't been released yet.
the sooner you buy it the sooner it bootloops anyway. LG phones all suck now
disciprine nope they not the g4 is the best phone i ever use
d
5:26 ah 2016, when the quality of camera of the pixel was questioned.
I heard apple would be implementing the exploding feature in their iPhone 7s
They already have. Look up news reports on iphone 7 explosions.
Mario I could just as easily say the same about apple fanboys. Your comment lacks substance. Google the explosions.
One Plus 3 Is also a very good option and also budget friendly also :D
ooops!! so many "also"
Watching on my OnePlus 3!
I don't think I'll be giving up my note 7 soon. have been considering the s7e but I need the active digitizer and I need the high-end camera plus I went all in with usbc adapters and accessories to get a phone with microb. will wait for a note 8 for sure
Jeff Wenz I have the pre-recalled note 7 no issues EVER I will not be returning mines unelss they force it to stop working
fair enough if your particular device may work perfectly, but bear in mind it is now illegal to take this phone on a plane
Jeff Wenz I went with the LG v20 and I have no regrets. so I would look into it
I keep hearing this I may have to do this since the new update won't allow my phone to charge past 60%, it was pushed through ughh my phone was fine though!!! 😡
Great selection of phones and a great video Marques!
i'm currently using my note 3
exactly
Fozence I have a note 7 rom on it.
You're currently an idiot
Torrey Ellison don't be like that
Torrey Ellison if you going to call him an 'idiot', atleast say why. Because you are a loaf of bread......
I think I'll get the V20. But LG phones always got some quirks that you just don't really see in other phones.
Like bootloops?
TheMusketITuckedIt there's a list. For my V10, The screen started having persistency issues and when you plug it in at 5% with the included charger, the indicator would start freaking out and the phone will shut down and the phone would suddenly be at 0%. When you plug in headphones, you would sometimes need to pull it out slightly, something I associate with cheap audio devices. Thing is, I returned the phone for a new device for these issues and the new device had the same issues.
I got the LG Stylo and it was fine until I updated to marshmallow from lollipop, then I started having all those problems,
1) turn up the brightness and it overheats and the screen flickers
2) battery hits 15% and gets a infinite boot loop
3) random black screens of death at any time of the day
4) home buttons completely disappearing off the screen
5) camera disappearing off the screen
6) plug in headphones and the UI crashes...
Zulqarnain Aidil That happens with g5 to.
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS yeah bootloops aren't a thing anymore sorry pal
I find it kinda ironic that the company that was known for it's "Removable" batteries now have to pull it's best phone off the market because the "Non-removable" battery is unstable. Had they stuck with the Removable option than all they would have had to do is fix the batteries and send the customers the fixed replacement battery. Samsung is learning the hard way.......
We don't know if it's the battery itself causing these issues, and Samsung changing battery manufacturers obviously didn't fix the issue so I'm assuming there's something else wrong with the phone that causes the batteries to become unstable.
A review of the iMac behind you would be really interesting🤔 It looks amazing with the custom color!
I'm watching this video on my Note 7 lol
Terrell Williams I'm doing the same to 😎😎
Malay Agarwal Locked and loaded
Kwanza Toney I freaking love this phone. As great as the S7 Edge is, the Note 7 is just heads and shoulders above. The software is cleaner, more responsive, battery life is phenomenal (which is odd because it has 100 Mah less than the S7 Edge) just everything is a step above. I'm sold. just hope the carriers don't blacklist the phone, or Samsung remotely disables it.
Terrell Williams I know right......hopefully this 1 is ok...im sold completely
same lol man i love this phone i don't want to trade it in
Note 5. It has most of the features of the Note 7 except it won't kill you.
I was expecting the Note 5 too, but I guess it's meant to be current 2016 phones
Yeah. I was expecting the Note 5 as well.
It's a much closer phone to the Note 7 than the S7.
Ken Anderson people just have to have the phone with the bigger number at the end, regardless of whether or not it's actually the better phone.
Jason Hatherlee Which there isn't a problem with. As long as other financial priorities are taken care of go for, but that still wouldn't keep me on such an old phone
Kelsie LeCrone Granted, he did throw it in as like an honorable mention, but I guess it is a year old and the S7s are much more up to date with better tech and software
they really should've made the battery replaceable on the replacement Note7. That way if they still fkd it up a 3rd party could've made a battery for it...
that's what i thought!
They pretty much found that the battery may not be the only issue with it. After the first recall they went with a different battery supplier and it still had issues.
they didn't anticipate the phone exploding
Barns Noble no but when they did the first recall they should have thought of something like this at least.
James Dickerson the time and money required to redisign the phone isn't justifiable for a yearly released product. That's why they're discontinuing them and working on next year's.
Changing the Note 7 to iphone 7 plus.. lol that was funny.
All of these Top 5 Replacements for Note 7 don't have pen...
Pen Pineapple Apple Pen.
Zetsuke4 pen pineapple note seven
I think Exploding was the best feature ever!
The OnePlus 3 is the best option for the price. It doesn't have waterproofing, if you absolutely need that.
Plexo nebulous what's so low ranged about 6gb of ram? is it low ranged cause your sheep ass doesn't see commercials about it on TV?
Flavio A True alot of people are like what is it, assuming it sucks because they are misinformed
Lalit Sharma OP3, Nexus 6P, and Galaxy s series are beast.. better than iPhone
Patrick Star I used to have a nexus 5, then I switched to iPhone 5s, then to OP1, then to 6s, and now I have the OP3 and it's nice, sure, but it just feels so... unoptimized. The camera app is slow and the whole android ecosystem feels quirky as fuck (Maybe it's Oxygen OS?). More RAM does not make it a better phone. I have yet to try the iPhone 7 but I'm guessing it's way more optimized for everyday use... If one wants a phone that they'll want to use for more than one year then it's the iPhone for sure. It only costs 300$ more, but it's probably 2x the OnePlus in usability.
***** lol only 300$ more. What do u mean only. That's enough to get another phone lol. And I also have a op3 and haven't experienced any of the issues you are mentioning. When it was first released it has ram issues but those are fixed now and yes iPhone will always be the best optimized phone cause of iOS but it's def not a 300$ difference. I'll wait the extra second for the camera to open and enjoy my money elsewhere
It's crazy to see how much better Marques and his team are right now (December 2024).
