[Resolved] Samsung India — samsung galaxy note 4 durability and motherboards issue | |||||
I want to let you know that i am a die-hard user and fan of samsung phones but now i am having some serious doubts and issues with it. I owned a samsung galaxy note 2 earlier and presently i own samsung galaxy note 4. With both phones, i have had the same problem and that is the motherboards of both the phones became faulty and the people at the service centre told me that the motherboard would have to be replaced. And it would cost me about rs. 21000 to replace the note 4 motherboard which is almost the cost of a new galaxy note 4 phone. Basically, i am very much disappointed with the durability of the samsung phones as both my phones became unusable after only 2.5 years o[censored]se and it is very costly to repair. And also the phones are very costly in the first place. And once they are not functional, i cannot even sell them on to reduce my cost to buy a new phone. I would like to have a samsung phone which would keep working for at least 4-5 years. If the life of a samsung phone is only of 2 years, then it is no point for me to keep on buying new samsung phone. I have seen my friends’ and relatives’ apple phones working for good 4-5 years. I would be glad if you could resolve my problem. I do like the samsung’s user interface very much and would not want to change the phone, but i am not left with any other option but to switch to some other brand’s phone.

I am going through exactly same issue. I too owned note 2 ...twice replaced batteries then motherboard. Then moved to Note 4 ...not even 2 years, already replaced battery once but now motherboard issue has cropped up again. Last 2 months ..I have visited service centres thrice...they don't seem to have clear understanding whether it's software, battery or hardware issue. Their estimation is rs 18000+service charges..which is ridiculous amount to be spent on Note 4 now. Same repair outside (small shops ) ..put it as close to Rs 7000.. though I have not given to them. I am an heavy user of note phones and was keenly looking for buying Note 8 ...but with this kind of longevity of phone and high cost of Note 8 stops me buying it. I believe you either should extend a warranty for high end Note devices or at least offer buy back for it .. disappointed!! . Email : register.[protected]@gmail.com

I am facing the same issue. I own a Samsung Note 4 not finished its 2nd year and I was told by the service center that the motherboard needs replacement. Was told that the cost would go above 11000 Rs. I love my device but I cannot keep spending that kind of money to fix it with no guarantee that it will last even the following year. I cannot believe that they charge that kind of money for fixing an older model, cant even image what they might charge for fixing the newer variants. Definitely not sure about investing in Samsung devices in the future. Hoping that Samsung resolves these issues or they stand to loose a lot of loyal customers.

Same old story of motherboard failure with me. Phone is now in bootloop after update. Sorry Samsung - your note 4 series has a design fault. Replacement of motherboard is too expensive so I am using note 4 as a paperweight.
