Samsung has taken out a full-page advert in multiple US newspapers to apologise for the faulty Note 7 phone, which has now been subject to a worldwide recall. The advert in Monday’s Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Washington Post, is signed by Samsung’s North America chief executive, Gregory Lee. “We will re-examine every aspect of the device, including all hardware, software, manufacturing and the overall battery structure,” Lee wrote. As a result, New Zealand’s mobile networks are teaming up with Samsung to disconnect the device from their networks entirely. From 18 November, the Note 7 will no longer work on any mobile carrier in the country.
