I told you the other day as an iPhone 4 terminal it set on fire inside a plane that had started the landing procedure and now I come back with information about another iPhone that suffered exactly the same fate. In the image above, we have the device that apparently caught fire while it was being charged on a user's table. He says that he was only a few centimeters away from the terminal when it started to emit smoke and then sparks, all out of the blue while it was connected to the computer and charging.
In the morning, I woke up seconds before witnessing the burning of my iPhone when I saw a lot of sparks and black smoke out of the cell. My room was impregnated with an unbearable smell of smoke! At that moment, I turned off the power switch in the room to remove the cell from the outlet. Soon after, I opened the windows of the room and turned on the fan to remove the smoke, which just came out completely on Tuesday morning. I do not hurt, although the unit is about 15 cm and height of my eyes.
The fault seems to be the battery of the device, which apparently probably ignited due to a manufacturing defect. Unfortunately, this is the second incident that occurred just a few days away from the one in the plane of an Australian company. Incidents of this kind are rare, but when they happen they attract everyone's attention because the world does not expect a supposedly premium device to catch fire out of nowhere. If something like this happens to you, immediately ventilate the room you are in because the smoke emitted by the terminal is toxic and it is advisable not to inhale it.
