For those who opted for this phone and now find themselves on crossroads, following guidelines may prove helpful. 

• Go for an exchange:

Just carry your phone to your carrier or retailer from where you purchased it and they will be glad to take it back in exchange for any other phone of your choice. But few of the carriers like T-Mobile are not offering this facility at the moment.

• Those who have already paid for the phone or are on a payment plan:

One can jolly well claim refund from the carrier or if on a payment plan can get that cancelled and take the refund of money already paid and no need to worry for future payments on that account.

• Those who are still fascinated by the device:

Samsung has taken this drastic step only after doing the home work in depth. Moreover authorities has also warned and issued instructions after taking everything into consideration.

Even if your device is working fine without any problem as on date, it can happen anytime, any day, anywhere. So come out of that fascination and return it.

There are many a options available to switch in exchange of Galaxy Note 7. One can check out Galaxy S7 Edge if one wants to stick to Samsung only. This phone has many of Note’s features.

One can go for iPhone 7 also as it is on counters and available. The Google Pixel XL and LG V20, Moto Z, HTC 10 and OnePlus 3 are few of the contenders if one wants to stick to Android but not to Samsung. 

In nut shell please return your Note 7.
