Samsung re-launches Galaxy Note7 following explosive first try

Samsung has proudly announced that the Galaxy Note7 is available worldwide, again, after the company was forced to recall millions of headsets that were at risk of exploding.
"Along with the several other experience zones showcasing Samsung's latest product, guests have crowded our Galaxy Note7 experience zone since this morning," said Junghyun Kim, Manager of the Seoul-based Samsung D'light shop. "We found that many people are excited to check out the iris scanner, the new S Pen features, such as S Translator, and the camera. Many existing Galaxy Note7 users have already visited and exchanged their phones for a new Galaxy Note7 or other Galaxy devices, and more and more people are inquiring about purchasing the Galaxy Note7."

So far, the Note7 has relaunched in Korea and a few other nations, but is rolling out in earnest in the coming weeks.

The company also "strongly encouraged" consumers who own a recalled Note7 to exchange theirs immediately.
