      Come to think of it people, if the owner is in to something she should have immediately contacted a lawyer to ask for damages(big fat check) from samsung instead she just ask for a full refund. No additional fees were ask for the accessories

        With all these news about exploding Samsung phone, I still wonder why Samsung main building haven't explode itself already by now with huge numbers of S7 and Note7 there. We don't hear news like "Samsung Electronics Department burnt down by Note7 explosion!" Or "D.J. Koh got burn by S7!". Makes me feel like all these news are fake sometimes. Even Samsung Store haven't burnt down yet so far.

                  I find something fishy here...only note 7 had faulty batteries...now suddenly phones that were launched way back in march or april are having battery issues...iam using S7 Edge since april indian version...brought one for my wife in august...both are working great...awesome battery life ...never gets hot...i think other brands are trying to spoil samsung name coz its no 1 now...with note 7 having issues and now solved...shady people dont want the samsung problem to die down...iam a happy samsung users since many many years

                    The phone was released last Feb and the exploding s7s are occurring coincidentally along with the Note 7s? Such timing. I might be wrong, but this can be just an isolated case.

                      Anonymous, 26 Sep 2016Samsung Galaxy "BOOM" 7 SeriesMaybe I should put a lighter to my S7 edge to get a refund, better yet set my car on fire and blame it on the phone I've had for the past 8 months. Now maybe this is an issue with the newest models idk, either way I'm not worried about my edge. As a matter of fact I just bought a Samsung battery case to double my chances of this occurring, I'm not worried about this, I love this phone.

                          HTC and Motorola go through a screening process where shit like this will never happen. That is why I will always pay that extra bit to get a HTC phone. Since my S3 I have never gone back to Samsung. All they care about is getting as much products out there to destroy their competitors. HTC will rise.

Even when charging and using social media or web browsing they get really hot.
