Galaxy S4 spontaneously catches fire again: battery not original
According to foreign media reports, a Samsung Galaxy S4 user in Texas, USA, caught fire while sleeping. The user complained to Samsung, but Samsung said the problem was that the user used a non-original mobile phone battery. A 13-year-old girl from Texas smelled a burning smell in her sleep, but she didn't realize that it was the Galaxy S4 under her pillow that caught fire, so she went back to sleep. But the little girl, named Ariel Tolfree, found that the burning smell was getting stronger and stronger. When she woke up again, she found that her Samsung Galaxy S4 had melted under her pillow and burned a big hole in the sheets. Tolfree likes her Samsung Galaxy S4 phone very much, "It's really beautiful and looks very high-tech." That's why she put it next to her pillow. Her father believes that the cause of the fire was that the phone overheated and caused the battery to swell. He complained, "When we buy a product, we hope it is safe, and this should be a reasonable expectation." Samsung insists that the products it manufactures are safe. It pointed out that the battery of this phone is another brand, not Samsung's original. Ariel Tolfree said that the phone ran under the pillow without his knowledge. Samsung said, "This is a good reminder that if you cover your phone with something that blocks airflow, it can actually cause a fire." This isn't the first case of a phone catching fire, and it won't be the last. Earlier this year, a teenager in Maine had her iPhone spontaneously combust in her pocket. And a few years ago, a Motorola Droid 2 exploded near a man's ear. So in this day and age, for your personal safety, one thing to check every night before going to bed is that you're far enough away from your phone. Far enough that it won't hurt you if it explodes. Because, a few years ago, an iPhone 4 exploded on a nightstand while charging. Samsung is currently studying the phone to try to find the cause of the explosion. The company also replaced the user with a new phone and the damaged bedding. And thankfully, no one was injured.
