Re: Amazing that somehow only Samsung was affected

EXACTLY! Sure sounds like a coverup to me. This raises SO MANY questions like these:

1. So these two suppliers never made batteries for Samsung, or anyone else before?

2. If they did, then why no major problems with other models, or brands?

3. If the two battery makers are brand new manufacturers then why wasn't rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control inspections performed including periodic design compliance and random test-until-failure checks performed as part of the manufacturing production process?

4. What exactly was so radically different with the N-ferno 7 vs the standard Galaxy S7?

5. Speaking of S7, who made the batteries for S7 and other Samsung models?

5. Considering that N-ferno 7 incorporated the ubiquitous—but possibly dangerous—lithium batteries then why wasn't safety a top priority at Samsung for a brand new FLAGSHIP model... including its apparently BRAND NEW DESIGN batteries?

Now here's the stupidest part of it all. If it really was just defective batteries, think how much exponentially smaller the fiasco would have been had the idiots at Samsung opted for the once ubiquitous user-replaceable batteries? They could have easily saved the Note 7 model—and their reputation—by simply recalling the 'defective' batteries and replacing them with safe good quality user-installable units. It absolutely boggles the mind at such corporate stupidity. Of course, I've ranted about this ad nauseam in the past. Oh well.
