Meanwhile, an Apple iPhone 6 has been reported to have suffered from a battery explosion during a mobile call. Details are sketchy and some are unconfirmed, but the phone apparently started sparking and then blew up during an active conversation.
The person talking on the phone noticed the sparking and immediately threw the device out of his car, just in time to see it bursting into flames. He actually suffered an injury in his thumb, but he is apparently not hurt very seriously from the incident.
Local police are filing charges for financial loss against a et unknown person. We don’t know what could have led to the explosion in the phone’s battery, but we’re sure that there will be some serious investigating, including by Apple. If the company doesn’t get on top of that situation immediately, it could cause a lot of problems for them in the long run. Their public image could be damaged significantly if it turns out that this was a genuine original battery.
