Samsung acknowledged the Galaxy Note 8 battery issue…
… and states that only a very small number of devices is affected. Last year I wrote a little article about some Galaxy Note 8 units having a nasty issue where their batteries went to 0% and did not work afterwards, even when fully charged. Well, reports of that problem have first surfaced in late December and it took Samsung until yesterday to officially acknowledge and address it.

As for its release, it is assumed to take place along with the Galaxy S9 and S9+ smartphones, during the MWC ...
