The exploding Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has had its time. Is it the iPhone 7's turn to take center stage? We certainly hope NOT!
Apple and Samsung have been trading blows for some time now, and both companies have brought each other to court on a number of occasions, with most filings involving infringement. Over the past seven years, people have already grown accustomed to some new features from the latest iPhones getting an equivalent on Samsung's handheld offerings and vice versa.
After all, this fierce competition between brands benefits the consumers.
But the iPhone 7's most recent rumored "feature" (some fans allege jokingly that Cupertino copied from the South Korean phone maker yet again) may get people to scratch their heads and question whether this feature trading is even a good idea.
Are Exploding Smartphones Becoming Common?
An iPhone 7 owner by the username of kroopthesnoop recently posted on Reddit and imgur, complaining that his/her device was "running a little hot." A photo of a burnt rose gold iPhone 7 resting against its box was provided. A quick glance at the photograph reveals that the display was separated from the chassis after the device caught fire.
"I'm not certain, but something happened between the factory and delivery," the device owner responded in a probe regarding what happened.
