Now, to slack off the operating loss, Samsung is seeking to introduce refurbished Note 7 phones in select markets where low price is the key thing to buy a phone. Samsung has recently confirmed the aired rumors about the company's plan to sell the refurbished Note 7 phones.

Pricing and Availability:
Originally priced at $950 (Rs 60,000), the refurbished version of Note 7 will be sold at half the price to the original phone. According to the Chinese electronic media, CN TV, Samsung has prepared to keep the phones available to buy in June this year in the emerging markets viz., India, Africa and Vietnam.
The South Korea environmental law avers that the metal components of a smartphone should be recycled and re-used twice before they are crushed. This law made Samsung sell the refurbished Note 7 without disposing of.
