      Samsung should not worry. They are anyway not going to sell as many S5 phones as they are projecting.

        Now Samsung also in fire.

          AnonD-216754, 10 Mar 2014I've tried s3 and s4 it's to laggy hope they can fix it on ... moreI think that's depend on how you use your smartphone. I use Galaxy Note II, no root, it doesn't lag at all, whereas Galaxy S4 is better than Note II.

            "Samsung has already made a statement that this wasn't the only PCB factory it has employed for the Galaxy S5 PCBs and it won't affect the April 11 launch. The Korean manufacturer claims the incident won't be setting back the production of the device by a huge margin."

            Yeah right. A billion dollars loss for even a $100 billion dollar profit organization matters a lot. A lot. This is nothing but just desperate attempts to cool down the customers but deep down, they know that this is bad. What about the insurance of the company? The damages? The investigation? The angry and unemployed employees? The injured employees? The investors? Pff! Sammy, tell me more about it.

                  Hope everyone's safe after that incident and Samsung would have no difficulty to overcome the situation. So many Samsung fanboys are blaming Apple now because they think Apple striked the fire. How funny. :P

                      While it might be amusing to many, industrial espionage and sabotage is not beneath any large corporation's draw of filthy tricks.

                      But until it's proven to be the case, implicating any company by some internet keyboard warrior jury is equally pathetic.

                                      Apple must be behind this.
                                      Apple finally aware that they can't stop Samsung using legal way. Sooo instead of hiring more lawyers, they now hiring some field professionals..

                                      Note: If any of this joke were true, all other Samsung rival are also suspect, including Google, lol.
