Australian carriers Qantas and Virgin Australia told its passengers not to use or charge Samsung`s Galaxy Note 7 during flights.
Samsung recalled its Galaxy Note 7 smartphones after finding some of their batteries exploded or caught fire.
Samsung, the world�s largest smartphone maker, said last week it was suspending sales of its latest flagship mobile device and recalling 2.5 million units shipped globally following reports of exploding phablets that dealt a heavy blow to the firm�s reputation. Samsung has sold 2.5 million of the premium devices so far.
