veronica 2 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Exploding cellphone kills Chinese man: A man shopping in a Lenovo store in mainland China has been killed after the phone in his chest pocket exploded, severing arteries and leading to massive blood loss. The make and model of the phone and battery have yet to be identified, but seeing how this is the seventh high-profile case of an exploding phone in China in the last six years, it really gives you pause before installing that shady off-brand juice, doesn't it?

thursday 1 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 trouble is some of these counterfeit batteries look and costs similar to the real things. Another dude had his phone in the trouser pocket. His phone just caught fire, so no serious injury there. Good job they don't wear sporrans. Link to post Share on other sites
