Battery were the first to blame when the Samsung Galaxy Note7 devices caught on fire. But as some independent studies have pointed out, that isn’t the full truth. When Samsung killed off the phablet, it set to investigate the cause behind the fires. And now Samsung is close to revealing its findings by the middle of this month. According to sources cited by the Korean Herald, Samsung enlisted the help of US-based, safety science company Underwriter Laboratories. There is also a separate investigation being conducted by the state-owned Korea Testing Laboratory.
Finding out what really happened with the Note7 can help Samsung from avoiding a repeat of the disaster and, at the same time, assuage worries of investors in the company. No final word yet when Samsung plans to reveal the findings but an official statement should be released soon.
