Supposed exploding Samsung

[MACHEK]

This video just popped up from someone in Indonesia about a supposed Samsung blowing up September 30th. https://m.liveleak.com/view?i=89c_1507219095

All I'm saying is this better not be a Note 8, cause I love this phone.

Couldn't find anything new on this but did find this article saying iPhone 8 is lol https://qz.com/1091071/reports-suggest-customers-apple-iphone-8-phones-are-exploding-aapl/

Yeah that bottom article is for sure iPhone. I was unsure of the video of a phone actually blowing up because whoever posted that originally on that site said its a Samsung.

Yeah iPhone 8 has the note 7 battery in it. Will be the bomb soon.

Exploding phone

So the Samsung Grand Duos was launched Dec 2012.

The expectation would be the phone would be on its second battery, likely non OEM. Or if on the original battery, possibly degraded and at risk of damage and thermal runaway.

In any event not a good look whatever the company even if User attribution may be significant.
