Over the years we have seen a multitude of incidents involving exploding iPhone terminals, and today we are talking about a new one that forced a man to be hospitalized for 10 days. In the image above you have a terminal iPhone 5C that caught fire in a man's pants pocket, melting the protective casing and the skin of the man's leg. According to the doctors, the man suffered 3rd degree burns on his leg following the incident and required hospitalization for 10 days, so we are talking about a serious case.
A cellphone suddenly explodes in a man's pocket on Long Island, giving him second- and third-degree burns. The burns were so severe that he was hospitalized in a burn unit for more than a week. His iPhone was in his pocket on Valentine's Day when he says it spontaneously exploded, just moments after he and his brother arrived at their cousin's wake.
Based on past incidents, It seems that it is about a battery that exploded in the terminal and generated the whole incident, some iPhone batteries generate problems of this kind. The problem in this case is that the terminal iPhone 5C it generated so much heat that it also bent the metal casing that protected it, so if it hadn't been there, the burns would have been much bigger. Unfortunately, some smartphone batteries generate explosions of this kind during the use of mobile phones by users, and there is no solution.
The good part of the unfortunate incident is that situations like this happen very rarely, extremely few terminals out of the tens of millions sold burning out of nowhere.
