Nokia suspends the sales of the Lumia 2520 over safety concerns

Nokia has announced that it is temporarily suspending the sales of the Lumia 2520 tablet. It has come to their attention during internal testing that the supplied AC-300 wall charger, sold exclusively with the Lumia 2520, poses a health risk.

Under certain conditions, the plastic cover of the charger's exchangeable plug could come loose and separate, and poses a hazard of an electric shock if touched while the plug remains in a live socket.

Nokia is also advising customers who have already purchased the tablet to immediately stop using the charger, along with the optional travel charger accessory sold in some regions. Nokia says this has impacted approximately 30,000 chargers, including 600 travel charger accessories.
