    Let me guess... overheating?

    It appears that Samsung have really dropped the ball with the S7. Luckily for them they sell so many other good models, otherwise it might permanently damage their reputation.

    Well overheating has been happening to S7's left, right and centre, and it has mainly happened during charging. As far as I can ascertain, it's not the phone that is at fault, it is the design of the battery. However because, like all Apple phones for example, the S7 has a non-removable battery, it is at the mercy of a faulty one. It's why the last regular Samsung phone I would consider is the S5, because its battery is removable. In fact, even before this S7 battery overheat business, if ever I was to consider replacing my old S2, the replacement phone would have to have a removable battery, so that it could be charged in a caddy, if necessary.

    Uber drivers win employment case. This is another loophole which it seems a fair few delivery companies also use to avoid paying their 'employees' a proper rate of pay and the usual benefits you would normally expect. It will put prices up but it's the right decision.

    You need to factory restore it first of all to see if the software has corrupted. Make sure you back up your pictures though as some factory restores delete them. Everything on your sim contacts etc will be fine. If that doesn't work then you need to take it back to the store. Is it a contract phone? or are you still under warranty?

    He also had no rights. Like say his car broke down, he would have to pay for it not the company. If the person he delivered to complained, he would have to sort it out himself.

    Disgusting company.
