First a car fire because of an iPhone, then a exploding iPod Touch in the garden of an 11 year old girl, and now another exploding device. This time it’s the iPhone that exploded. A boy wanted to take a closer look at the iPhone of his girlfriend, but it ended up being a nasty experience. The iPhone exploded in his hands and pieces of glass flew in his eyes. The worried mother didn’t wait, and immediately called the Consumer Service of Apple.
They told her that it was impossible that the iPhone could have exploded. The cause is likely to be an overheated battery. The victim has decided to submit a complaint.
It seems negative news about Apple keeps spreading around. This time it’s no difference.

Keep the device out of a sun next time.
Ok, I have to say that if this is true, then Apple needs to own up and take care of not only this phone, but all of the others that this has happened to and all related expenses.
It was the battery, read ANYWHERE about Lithium-based batteries. They’re extremely unstable stuff. Granted, they could warn people about it, but how? If they put it in a caution thingy, no one would pay attention anyway. Perhaps they already have, actually…I don’t know.
THATS NONSENSE!!!! he must have been playing with the phone too much…. this is a leeson to all you lil kids reading this… GIVE YOUR IPOD/IPHONE A BREAK EVERYONE IN A WHILE!!!! we all need rest lol…
That’s cause the iPhone is the hottest item in town. Won’t happen to blackberry cause it sucks.
There is no way it would explode like that. That is a bunch of BS. There would be world wide news coverage, fat ass lawsuit, and my apple stock would plummet. Even if the battery itself exploded it wouldn’t have a big enough pulse to break through the casing. If you don’t believe me stick your phone in the microwave.. The iphone will not explode.
I dont believe Apple are part of this game called iPop- make iPod safe since they have not gave any official reply to the exploding iPhones
yeah…i heard about the exploding stories, same with GHDs…but its only happend to a few people…when a product becomes popular there’s bound to be some mistakes since they produce in masses…but i think apple should own up and do something about it.
