The new Galaxy Note 7 had barely left the warehouse when the first reports appeared on social media of the device randomly exploding while it was charging.
One of the unlucky people who saw his shiny new $800 smartphone spontaneously burst into flames was Ariel Gonzalez. In a video posted on YouTube he shows his two week old charred Galaxy Note 7. According to Gonzalez, the phone caught fire shortly after the official Samsung charger was unplugged.
After other customer reports of exploding batteries and scorched phones, Samsung decided to recall millions of devices and halted sales of its Galaxy Note 7 phone until the issues have been resolved. The brand new Note 7 has been pulled from the shelves in 10 countries, including South Korea and the United States.
What’s the issue?
After investigations into numerous incidents, Samsung found that a battery cell made by one of its two battery suppliers was causing the smartphone to catch fire. As reported by The Daily Mail, Koh Dong-jin, president of Samsung’s mobile business refused to name the supplier.
