Another replacement Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has reportedly caught fire in Minnesota. The news comes just days after a replacement Note 7 caught fire on a Southwest flight in Kentucky, and all four major US cell carriers told customers they could exchange all Note 7 phones, replacement or not.
The Minnesota case involves 13-year old Abby Zuis, who said she felt a "weird, burning sensation" while holding her Note 7 on Friday according to a report from KSTP. After the incident, the phone had burn marks similar to those seen on other Note 7 devices and it melted a cover that was on the phone.
KSTP news reported that the US Consumer Product Safety Commission was investigating the incident as well. The CPSC said it was "moving expeditiously" to investigate the fire in Kentucky earlier this week.
Though observers have suggested Samsung should stop selling the Note 7 altogether after the Kentucky fire, the fact that another replacement phone apparently caught fire just days later will only intensify those calls.
And there is a replacement phone exploded in Taiwan yesterday. Samsung NOTE 7 is seriously DONE
They need to cancel this phone immediately. The replacements were supposed to have fixed the issue, and since they are still exploding, Samsung obviously does not know what is wrong with it, or the design flaw is so serious that it would force a complete redesign. Either way, this is a public health hazard and needs to be addressed as such.
Sometimes I really think the users are to blame because they aren't using their phones properly, the BRAND DOESN'T MATTER it's just the way they use their phones REALLY.
