The actual cause of the battery explosions associated with the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 will finally be known and all that takes place on Monday, Jan. 23, 2017. The scheduled announcement should set the records straight for the once-promising tablet that caused the Korean giant to lose big money.

The upcoming announcement caps months of comprehensive investigation on the real cause of the battery malfunctions for the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. The press conference will be held in Seoul, South Korea starting at 10 a.m. KST, according to an official press release by Samsung. The event will not only showcase the findings of the Korean company, but also investigations made by independent expert organizations on the battery exploding issue.

While the real cause of the fire-causing explosions of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 could be a big reprieve, most are equally interested in the improvements and measures that Samsung has in mind. With more handsets expected to come out in the future, consumers want assurance that future mobile handsets will not put their lives at risk.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Battery size was singled out as the reason behind the explosion, the Wall Street Journal reported. The batteries were supplied either by Samsung SDI or Amperex Technology Ltd. It was initially believed that the defective batteries came from affiliate,s but the problem continued to persist. There were other jabs on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 battery explosion issue such as design flaws and too many features that the battery could not handle.

The company has suffered big losses with the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 debacle and hopefully, the upcoming announcement can stop the bleeding. Regardless of what happens, the preventive measures are what's more important, particularly for up and coming phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S8/ S8 Plus. The next flagship is expected to be available in April 2017.
