Non exploding device

[yvsmadhav]

In recent days, there have been so many incidents of explosions involving the Galaxy Note7 that Samsung has decided to halt the production of the device. I also came across news of explosions involving iPhones. So far LG V20 seems to be unaffected. So will LG take notice and use this to promote the V20?

I doubt that LG will come out with a Ad Campaign that states "Our phones don't explode"

Hundreds of V20 demos verses millions of iPhones and Note 7s. Not exactly an on par comparison for being affected

Even if the V20 had an issue, super simple to manage a battery rather than the device as well. Samsung as example would have saved and made billions of dollars with the current issue and the Note 7 would still exist.

Samsung's quest to go all Apple wth forcing two year retirement curves on devices has tragically backfired. Sealed batteries have their negatives, as obvious here with the Note 7. What good is forcing a retirement curve if less or none are buying your devices?

BTW, the Note 7s are not exploding. Technically incorrect. It is a chemical short resulting in burning, not boom.

I'm all for removabke batteries as a quick solution to a bad battery but we don't 100 percent for it is indeed the battery and not charging system.

As for explosion vs non explosion some have been listed as exploding because of the expansion that causes battery and phone to split open. Its still an explosion, it just doesn't go boom.

Essentially more of a sizzle than a boom

Besides, the battery lasts half as long on the V20, so half the chance with same battery

Tests so far are actually 40% less, but 50% is an easier joke. Hey, if the media can exaggerate so can non media
