A 12-year-old girl from Philadelphia suffered second-degree burns when her iPhone 5c spontaneously burst into flames in her back pocket.
Alexis Rolon says she was walking to school Friday morning when she heard a sizzling sound coming from her smartphone tucked in the rear pocket of her jeans.
The 12-year-old then saw smoke wafting from the device, and almost immediately she felt sharp pain.

The heat was so intense that the burning phone scorched a hole through Alexis' pocket and seared her buttocks, leaving her with second-degree burns.
But get this:

Despite her painful experience, she is not ready to give up on Apple's popular gadgets.
'I like the iPhone, but I don't want that one anymore,' she said of the iPhone 5c. 'I want a different one.'
