Those waiting to exchange their potentially dangerous Samsung Galaxy Note 7, or the temporary replacement they received, will be happy to hear that Samsung has shipped 500,000 units of the ‘safe’ Samsung Galaxy Note 7 into the U.S. Older Galaxy Note 7 units ticketed for a return to Samsung are having trouble catching a ride. FedEx and UPS refuse to ship the models that might be carrying a defective battery for obvious reasons.
We’re not privy to how Samsung is dividing up these units. We did receive a tip from a PhoneArena reader today, who claimed to have chatted with a rep for T-Mobile.
