Not one, but two more cases have been reported in which the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 replacement exploded while in use. Let’s take a look!
Galaxy Note 7 replacement: the scandal goes on!
A young woman in Taiwan has reported that her Samsung Galaxy Note 7 exploded while she was walking her dog in the park. She shared that at first, she heard a bang from her pocket where she put the Note 7. After that, she saw smoke emitting from the pocket. Then she was lucky enough to be able to pull out the phone and throw it to the ground before it caused her serious damage.
The other incident took place at a Burger King store in South Korea. Too bad for Samsung that this explosion was recorded and now the video is all over the internet. According to the video, the phone was emitting lots of smoke while it was being placed on the table. The staff member at Burger King had to wear kitchen gloves to be able to get rid of the phone (it still looks very dangerous, how brave she is). You can scroll down at the end of this article to see the video.
These cases have one thing in common: Both phones are reported to be units of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 replacement. Moreover, these are not the only cases. If you have been catching up with this scandal, you must have known that a few days ago, an alleged Galaxy Note 7 replacement exploded during … a flight. All passenger had to evacuate immediately after the explosion.
Galaxy Note 7 replacement: Not a device to buy anymore!
