Exploding units of smartphones happen independently from manufacturer, but sometimes it is connected with whole series of smartphones in large quantities. The biggest issue was noticed with Samsung Galaxy Note 7, when problem was so hard to solve that some airlines banned the boarding of aircraft with this phone. We hope that such situations will never be repeated on such a large scale, but it is worth keeping an eye on your devices. A few days ago the first case of self-ignition of the iPhone XS Max was noticed in the USA.
The problem was noted by client from Ohio when his phone exploded in his pants pocket and he felt a burn on his leg. The man announced that apart from losing his phone he also suffered health and he has some injuries on his leg. Apple took damaged unit from their client, but refused to exchange it for a new one.
