Which turned out to be a result of the Note 7's design rather than the (replacement) battery itself.Because the replacements exploded, too.

Nintendo make toys for kids, I'm sure they have run the Switch though QA a million times.
This is the company that got blamed for blinding kids with the 3DS which caused a shit storm and even to this day some people believe it, you think they are going to risk actually blowing them?
Yup.Or people are just using it to joke around and don't really give two shits about who makes the battery.
I need to see your shit post response gif folder.
Nah, he just forgot a word in his post.I need to see your shit post response gif folder.he has a point though 👀
Probably got a great deal from the supplier. As big of an issue as the Note 7 was, Nintendo probably used it to their advantage to get a lower price in the batteries.

That's exactly what I'm thinking.
If they aren't reliable though......

Lack of reading I guess? MDave even put up images of the battery flaws which lead to the explosions and still the majority assume it's the phone design.why are people saying it was the design of the phone that was the cause when the report showed that when they increased production to meet the increased demand for replacement units their manufacturing process got sloppy and they started making mistakes including missing insulation tape on some units in the ramped up production run?
How many Note 7s actually caught fire?

According to an unnamed Samsung official who spoke to Yonhap News, the Note 7's manufacturing defect affects less than 0.01 percent of all Note 7 handsets sold. Some quick back-of-the-envelope math, and you're potentially looking at fewer than 1,000 defective phones. "It is a very rare manufacturing process error," a Samsung rep told CNET.

According to a unpublished preliminary report sent to Korea's Agency for Technology and Standards (obtained by Bloomberg), Samsung had a manufacturing error that "placed pressure on plates contained within battery cells," which "brought negative and positive poles into contact."
Or maybe just exploding and on fire? Lol. I won't lie.... it's not the best news this morning.WSJ, fake news
Anyway, it should be fine. Nintendo is on fire these days.
This would only really be a story if Nintendo were literally buying recalled/unused Note 7 batteries.
Journalist will paint it that way in their article titles I bet.
Wait I thought it said that this company supplied the replacement batteries after the Samsung fiasco.
Am I missing something?
Even then it wouldn't be much of a story since the batteries were not at fault, but the phone engineering.This would only really be a story if Nintendo were literally buying recalled/unused Note 7 batteries.
and 26 of the ~90 (dunno where you saw 112) were found to be false reports.I've found reports of 35 worldwide which was significant enough for Samsung to trigger the recall. Then that number jumped to 112 during the recall.
fake newsBut this likely wouldn't have any effect on the batteries of the Switch because you're comparing apples and oranges of battery specifications.
Probably because outlets initially reported that Samsung tried to squeeze too much battery to the design of the phone. From the same article:
10+ people haven't read the OP already.
In the rush to make a "witty" comment, a bunch of posters make dumb comments.
I get that. Common occurrence.
But what's the WSJ's angle on this? The phone's design was the reason batteries were exploding. Doesn't matter where the batteries were coming from. Do they typically do articles on where component parts in devices come from?
The batteries weren't the problem
The Switch is using the same batteries as iPhone? I hope it charges as fast as my iPhone 7
I knew that. I'm saying that people were suggesting that the replacements were flawed too.
Because the batteries were not the problem...if you have a flawed phone design/manufacturing, no matter how many times you replace the battery, the phone is still flawed and will still have the same issues
