Samsung has received 92 reports of overheating batteries in the US, including 26 reported burns and 55 claims of property damage, according to the CPSC. On top of a global recall of 2.5 million phones, the company plans to launch a software update on September 20th that limits the Galaxy Note 7's battery to a 60 percent charge.

The CPSC provides instructions on how to refund or replace a Galaxy Note 7, organized by service provider. Samsung and the major US carriers laid out their instructions on how to exchange or return affected devices less than a day after the initial recall.

Since news of the fire hazard broke, the Federal Aviation Administration and New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority have warned against bringing the Galaxy Note 7 on both planes and trains, respectively. Samsung lost $26 billion in market value in the weeks following the recall.
