I'm skeptical Samsung would start selling Note 7 phones again, it's too much of a risk with how many caught on fire.

That is just someone hoping to stir up the fires.

It won't ever get past the lawyers.

It's a rumour. Probably got a few clicks, probably not worth more than that.

I'd be surprised if there's any truth in it because even if they find the cause and can be 100% sure it's fixed it's a PR risk to remind people of this again, the reputation of the device will ensure that sales won't be spectacular and price will have to be lowered, and unless they could do it very early in the new year it would distract from the next flagship release. So I wouldn't waste time on it if I were them, but who knows?

Quoting the article -

"but its engineers have been unable to conclusively identify the source of the problem".

If they can't find the cause, I find it hard to believe they'll start selling it again.

Clickbait.

Isn't that the point of rumours??

I think this is total rubbish. Why would Samsung do this, when they don't know the cause of the problem, and they already tried a product re-launch, after claiming they fixed the problem, and it failed.

Updated information. Rumor is based on out of date information.
