iPhone 7 Exploding? [MERGED]

[flyinmac]

After reading the story, I've identified the cause. They were using the iPhone to record videos.

Obviously they weren't using it for it's intended purpose... showing it off to friends.

The 6s is interesting.

Will be interesting to find out what they learn to be the causes.

Hyperbole!.....Deflection!....bwahahaaa

But one in how ever many million is nothing really.....

Funny how the iPhone "catches fire" but the Note "explodes" but they look to have the same damage, actually the iPhone looks like it experienced something more akin to an explosion...

Yes, of course it's sarcasm. But, maybe there's something to it? Hahaha...

Probably because the iPhone didn't even burn the box it was it so even fire was the wrong wording in this case. Looks like the battery malfunctioned though quite spectacularly. If another 600 of these stories appear we'll know we have another Note debacle.

Okay I'm just looking out for The People

If you capitalised that on purpose - that's incredibly pretentious.

Are you serious? I wasn't trying to be. How is that pretentious?

What the hell did they drop on that box to do that much damage to a metal device?

Ok sorry then. It looked like it.

What I meant is that I'm looking out for us, the consumer. Or at least trying to.

That's the U.S. Postal service inspection. They have to determine if the package is liquid, perishable, or fragile.

Newsflash, stabbing a battery makes it react violently. Who knew?

Any update? I'm bored. Only one suspicious explosion inside a hot car among 40 million units? It's a disappointment. Macrumors made even a pinned thread. Try more...

If my cell phone explode or burn in fire I would probably stay silent only contact Apple and show pictures to them and ask replacement. But 99% I would not spread unnecessary panic without reason. If later many people experience same and Apple official statement is that problem exist, similar as with Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (I hope that will never happen) than I would say ...And I had same problem or something similar.
But as lonely incident I would not bother people.
