My S8+ reset itself

[Android Central Question]

I woke up this morning to find that my Galaxy S8+ did a spontaneous reset on its own. It wiped out my SD card and I lost all my photos and tons of music. How could this have happened? It was on my nightstand all night, not plugged in, about 90% charged.

Any insights would be great. thanks,

Welcome to Android Central! Is it just the SD card that was wiped out, or was it Internal Storage as well? Did you have to go through the whole Setup Wizard again?

Similar thing happened to me. I was in Facebook and then my S8+ just shut off and turned blue. (Screen says: 'erasing' with an android bot)
