From the recent issues and problems of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, later after its launch to the market, the customers trust in the company undoubtedly dropped. Incidents of exploding Galaxy Note 7 have been reported by the international market. The incident caused rumors that the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 will be cancelled.
The cause of the exploding Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is on its battery. The Note 7 uses a lithium ion battery. The liquid around inside most lithium ion batteries is highly flammable. If the very thin sheets of plastic that separates opposite sides of the battery cause a short circuit by puncturing, the flammable liquid heats up quickly enough to make an explosion of the battery.

The expected launch date of the devices are in February for Galaxy S8 and August for the Note 8 next year. This program could cover back the past issue of the Note 7 and gain back the customer's trust.
Samsung will give 50 percent discount for the owners of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 if they will trade their handset for the new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and the Samsung Galaxy S8. The latter will launch on March 2017, a few months earlier than the Note 8 launching date.
