The curious case of the exploding phone

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 phones have caused plane evacuations, house fires and governmental investigations but nobody knows what is causing these phones to combust.

Over a month after the first reports of problems, the company still doesn’t know why it’s phones are igniting.

The initial conclusion that the defect was caused by faulty batteries has been abandoned as replacement devices were blowing up too.

Yesterday, Samsung announced the death of the Note 7 presumably to begin minimizing damage to company profits and brand name.

Some Note 7 owners who have not already returned their phones have begun recieving explosion-proof return packaging including gloves and a thermal-insulated box.

We would not like to be the delivery driver.
