    AnonD-517906, 22 Oct 2016Must be the 9th? ha ha i only own 5 year old iPhone, and i... morethe most easy way to defend ur favorite brand... BLAME THE USER for neglecting their iphone...

    then, answer this one...
    IF I drop my iphone in the water and did not aware that I had lost my phone in the water for a good 30min or more, then when I salvage it & dried it the phone won't boot, will u consider that as user's fault?
    most probably ur answer is YES, to defend ur fav device & fav brands

    look, how can u blame anything that happen to the phone to be user's fault?
    U don't know the exact chronology, u don't know whether the car parked in a HOT parking lot or not, and other more variables.

    what BASIC user wants from their smartphone is they can use it easily, they can charge it safely, and it won't explode & burn ANYTHING when placed anywhere!

    Many user placed their phone in the bar full of gym stuff & clothes before, but there is NO CASE of explosion.
    Many user placed their phone my my country (Indonesia) in their bike as GPS under direct sunlight for HOURS but there is NO CASE of explosion.
    Many user forget to bring their phone when shopping and left it in their car, and there is NO CASE of explosion before.

    Now, still care to defend ur beloved brands which made iBomb 7?

      I am tired to hear any incident of catching fire on Samsung Note 7 and then follow by iPhone 7. But I must say the user must know the safety way to charge their handset, he should not put the clothes on it, I guess he maybe want to claim a new one or maybe inadvertence.

          i only own 5 year old iPhone, and if it explodes, it'll be my fault for not charging/putting it properly and this incident was seems to be caused by the human himself. leaving an iPhone in the car and put it in a stack of clothes, letting it heat up for long time inside a car and burn.

                    Wat! what is going on, I can't understand this, from Samsung Note 7 to iphone 7? What is wrong with the 7 friends! Indeed I can't understand this. investigations should be made as to what exactly happened. Both are very good phones the next we will hear will be LG V20. Investigate this now.

I prefer Apple computers, Samsung TVs, LG appliances, and Sony gaming. They each have their strengths but I feel Apple makes better computers since that is where they were born from than they do making phones and tablets. I think iOS is a joke. Even MacBooks have SD slot, torrent apps, and you can drag and drop files fast. Leave phones to the real pioneers like Motorola and Nokia. Anyways, Nokia Android phones for 2017 will be the return of the king.
