"The decision to completely terminate the Galaxy Note 7 line leaves Samsung without its top of the range phone, a device that was meant to compete with Apple’s iPhone Plus.
Whether Samsung will resurrect a new version of the phone in the coming year, as in the Galaxy Note 8, is yet to be seen, but the Note name may now be completely sullied as a brand.
Samsung does make a number of phablets including the Galaxy Mega, however, unlike the Note series the phones have never been particularly popular outside of Asia."
