Sony Fanboy Bitches, 07 Oct 2017So they will blame their battery manufacturer to cause the ... moreThere were cases of sony phones exploding but they never recalled their phones because sony is a company with no responsability.

    Could it be because of fast charging. Although fast charger not provided inbox but consumers could use ipad or Samsung fast chargers.

      I think nowadays every company is so desperate to release their new phones asap that they forgot/ignore to go through a thorough quality check of its components.

      For eg:- if Samsung and other companies are coming up with low bezels phones then even I(Apple) have to launch a less bezel phone immediately no matter what!

            Eh, what of the iPhone X will lead the same issue as the iPhone 8???? Well shit, Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy X will lead skyrocketing next year and Nokia will make Apple go bankruptcy by gambling.

                Everybody, let's pray that the iPhone 8 will be the biggest flop of the year when they will discontinue their product after numerous of recall report.

                  So they will blame their battery manufacturer to cause the problem, then recall all of the devices, then replace it with another one from a different battery supplier, and when it happens again, they will blame the problem again to the supplier, and they will recall the devices and discontinue the production and sale of these devices.

                  After about 1 year or so, they will put an even smaller battery inside and rename it as "iPhone Fan Edition"

                      Jimbob, 06 Oct 2017probably fake newsFake or not, needed to investigate properly by legitimate authorities.

                        It's part of the new feature which is called self destruct so that you need to buy a new iphone. [Kidding aside]

                          Apple will release a statement in next 2 3 days saying “you are not charging your iPhone 8 properly”... Like iPhone 4 antennagate.

                            Old batteries end up inflating, this means they are using very old used up batteries to save a few cents
