A Samsung Galaxy Note 7 explodes while charging

note-7-burned

That lithium batteries tend to spontaneously burn on occasion is something we all know. What is really strange is that it happens in a relatively new device, such as the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, and we have the first news of a device that has burned while charging, with the consequent scare. Fortunately, there have been no more losses than material losses. It is not the first nor will it be the last news that we have throughout the months of devices that burnFurthermore, with the arrival of summer and high temperatures, these dangerous situations tend to be more common.

However, not everything is as black as they could paint it, it should be noted that the user charged the Galaxy Note 7 with an adapter, since the Korean version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has USB-C, and the user used a microUSB connector using the above-mentioned adapter. We are almost certain that it was the use of this accessory that caused the fire. It is not the first problem caused by this type of adapter devices, especially when we talk about USB-C, a medium that has much more power than we assume.

However, this is not being the most striking controversy in which the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is being involved, especially many criticisms have rained about the low performance it offers, despite having a hardware composed of the most cutting-edge technologies of the sector. On the other hand, They have also criticized the ease with which its front and back are scratched, unseemly for a high-end device like that. However, in the face of this accident, Samsung has begun to investigate, with the intention of clarifying if it was due to a manufacturing problem or if it was really caused by the user's adapter.

    Hello. If it can greatly affect a manufacturing error, poor design or part defects, such as some dell laptops that suddenly caught fire due to a battery error. It can also be carelessness or user error that is just as risky. A faulty charger, in poor condition or the simple negligence of the user can generate from a short circuit to kill the person. The problem is that many people who have damaged the charger or the cable buy the inexpensive accessory and bring a device worth hundreds of euros with accessories for less than 5 euros that do not even meet the minimum security.

    In conclusion, if the company is at fault in the matter, let it be responsible but if it is the user, knowing that it is not the right equipment and still uses it, that it also takes responsibility.

    How convenient that an idiot who pays almost 900 dollars for a new phone to charge it with an adapter and not its original charger and then upload photos of his burned phone, when is the IPHONE 7 going to come out?
    Do not want to make firewood, that Apple does not want to know at the cost of a Samsung slip, do not invent that the phone has poor performance, that is a lie, they do not discredit themselves in that way, that 32 phones have been burned is true, but do not invent that it is underperforming, that only shows apple's fear and despair.

    I have the Note 7 and until now you have had no problems, you hit the exact point, they charge the mobile with any charger and not the original. It is very clear and objective, I liked your comment.
