Finally. Jesus, 97%? I've seen people say they're "taking precautions" but if it's 97% don't touch that thing!
"This recall involved the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphone sold before Sept. 15. U.S. officials said that 97 percent of the Note 7 phones sold in the United States have the type of batteries that have caused the fires."
Those are the vulnerable phones; the article said 2.5 million are being recalled, but only 92 are known to have caused problems in the US so far. Pretty obviously not all of them are lit bombs with a short fuze.
