Exploding Samsung Galaxy Note 7’s inspire “reboxing” videos

Mybroadband recently reported that Samsung would be discontinuing its Samsung Galaxy Note 7 range entirely.

Of course in this era of unboxing videos, YouTubers decided to have some fun and produce several reboxing videos.

Even Tom’s Hardware got in on the fun and provided a step-by-step guide to putting your Note 7 back into the box.

“Some tech sites do unboxing articles/videos, but today I find myself in the odd position of doing a reboxing article covering the Samsung Galaxy Note 7’s return packaging. One of the most interesting aspects of the recall is the thermonuclear-proof box that Samsung sent over to contain its exploding progeny.”

The box contained another box, along with a pair of blue gloves and a few forms outlining the return process.

Samsung’s soothing letter provided a sincere-looking apology (well, it says it’s sincere), and an idiot-proof picture guide to repacking and returning the phone.
