"tampabay" : Samsung may bring back its fire-plagued Galaxy Note 7 smartphone

Over less than three months beginning in August, Samsung released the phone, recalled it, released it again, then recalled and canceled it. Environmental activists have urged Samsung to produce a recycling plan for the millions of recalled phones. But Ma said the decision to bring the Note 7 back to market carries the risk of "coming across as being petty." The company's flagship smartphone was discontinued in October after some phones overheated and caught on fire, leading Samsung to pull it from the market entirely. That would depend on demand as well as Samsung's discussions with regulators and phone operators around the world, he said.
