A Samsung Galaxy S4 with official components explodes in China

Firefighters putting out fire possibly caused by Galaxy S4

It seems that a Samsung Galaxy S4 it could have exploded in China and, due to the arson, the terminal owner's apartment would have been totally destroyed. And, from the looks of it, this model didn't use unofficial accessories. The Korean company is already studying the case to clarify what happened.

The truth is that if the news that Gizmodo has given is confirmed, it would be a surprise and would join the problems that other terminals such as the iPhone have had (where they talk about people who have been electrocuted). Anyway, as we have indicated before Samsung is already studying what happened to know if, as the source appears and indicates, this model did not use any accessories and, therefore, it can be considered as official.

Apparently this would have occurred when the owner was running an application called Love Machine without excessively demanding the terminal. According to the user (who is known as "Du") he was on "his things" and the battery of the Samsung Galaxy S4 exploded without further ado. Due to the shock of what happened, he threw the phone under the sofa.

A fire that spread throughout the house

As the terminal began to burn, always according to the source and "Du" himself, the house little by little went up in flames ... which ended in a major problem since the apartment where he and his wife live was completely destroyed . Fortunately, neither of them suffered any injuries. According to the owner, the Samsung Galaxy S4 was not charging at the time and all the components he used were official... but it is difficult to know if this is true, since as seen in the image there is hardly anything left with which to confirm 100% his story.

Apartment fire possible explosion of Samsung Galaxy S4

In short, a science fiction story… Everything has to be said. Few think that due to a mobile phone an apartment is completely destroyed (if this happens to you, the terminal to the bathtub not under the sofa). As we have already indicated, Samsung is studying the case carefully to know what happened and if what Du indicates is as indicated in Gizmodo. We will have to wait to know what happened once the study is finished.
