The Galaxy S7 phone isn't the one with the battery problem. It's the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 that catches fire and was recalled.

Now I'm curious. My fiancee has an Iphone and I don't have
a clue how to operate it unless she gets it to the point
where I can dial a number. I have thought about a Galaxy
S7 but the burning battery problem has kept me from going
for one. What issues have those of you with the S7 had
with the batteries in them and have they been resolved to
your satisfaction?

out and grade the apron for my driveway to remove an emerging
pothole right where the driveway meets the road.

That';s pretty funny. I've used a Samsung for years (now an S7), and I
couldn't figure out how to place a phone call on my friends iPhone.
