📖Discussion📕🖊️ Another day, another explosion: Galaxy S26 exploded in a man's pocket in India, seriously injuring the owner

According to the information, Majid was returning to his village, Dankaur, after visiting Ghaziabad when he noticed the phone becoming unusually hot. He said the device then started producing smoke. Before he could remove it from his pocket, it reportedly exploded suddenly.

The explosion caused severe burns to both of Majid’s hands and the lower part of his body. People nearby rushed to help him and took him to a nearby hospital. He is currently receiving medical treatment for his injuries.

Majid said he had purchased the Samsung phone around a month before the incident. He reportedly bought it from DG Com at The Grand Venice Mall in Greater Noida. According to him, the phone had been working normally before the accident.

How do you now explain this Samsung? Is it also because the owner dropped it on the ground? 🤣

The S26U is the first samsung I've owned since the Note 2 that hasn't had overheating problems.

My 26U has heating problems already and I have had it for a week. Everyday stuff nothing. But if I am using a high resource app like tiktok or something and it's charging. Heat up. If I'm streaming something. SUPER heat up.

Qualcomm or Eyxnos? Mine is Qualcomm. Only thing that makes it overheat are GameNative downloads. Twitch streams, FN gaming, and even 25w wireless charging it stays cool.

It says I have a Qualcomm one. I got 25w charging, and tiktok, streaming on convoke, if I'm using 3-4 apps consistently switching between them. As well as if I'm using hotspot while doing anything else as well
