What, does apple sell iphones without wall chargers in Europe, Asia and Australia? Or let me guess, people outside USA are dumb so, they buy a phone with 1000 euros than , just for the sake of give out money, they buy a 2 Euros wall charger from Grocery store so that, they can charge their iphones. Cause well, they do not like the original one, is to shiny! Get a life people and stop defending the very own company that sucks your pocket dry for no particular reason. "Fanboism" at the very best;). And to think how many their are....

                        First there are very few cases reported and the publicity is mostly because it's Apple.

                        Second the majority of iPhones are sold in the US and there are no reports of this in the US, which might simply mean that some were using cheap faulty chargers which damaged the battery.

                        But of course Apple is investigating, as they should.

                          Apple shows again how greediness grows and grows. First cut salary of the employees and raise the price. Cause even that is not enough, cut the corners at materials so that you can win even more money by reducing quality, now raise the price again, so the people to be happy they pay more and more for less (iPhone 6). Now, that the greediness has no short legs, let's cut the quality of battery cells (Samsung practice) and let's put 1000 euro on it. why not?

                                  Anonymous, 07 Oct 2017Blame not using official cables and charger! LOOLOLOLThey must shut up. An 809 euros till 1089 euros phones with cheap batteries plus quick charge but without the quick charger in the box... ridiculous. I wonder if they tried to avoid this by not including quick chargers. Although being Apple sure that was to squeeze more to its customers and as always to adjust the benefit to the maximum offering the minimum.

                                    please compare Samsung s3 to iPhone 8, almost same screen resolution, better battery, better design, weight, and many more features
                                    and remember this phone was made in 2012 and even with the value of money in 2012 still cost 4 times lessss...
                                    hats off to apple in brain washing department

                                    its so shame that Samsung followed greedy apple in non removable battery and other stupid things

                                      But when iPhone battery start swelling, they call it swelling. That's it. That's media.
