Proof?

Uh, I guess we will see, huh? This is exactly how note 7 started. Those of us who had to turn one in are a bit gun-shy, ya know?

I wouldn't get too excited over a single incident that may or may not be true. There are always those hoping to cash in.

Gets note 9.... hahahaha if it goes up I flames it goes up in flames lol

I'd like to see a source more credible than the New York Post and since they are saying, "according to court papers", I would like to see those as well.

On the face of it, while we wait for more information, I don't have any issue believing that a phone caught fire. I do have an issue believing that it is another case of spontaneous battery explosion syndrome, or whatever the hell it was with the Note 7. To me, the "my phone was getting hot, so I put it in a purse (confined space with other objects) seems like there could be other factors.

My vote is that we wait for more info prior to going nuts.

This is exactly how note 7 started.

Hardly. Three weeks after the Note7 went on sale, there had been dozens of reported fires. Three weeks after the Note9 went on sale, there is a single, still-unconfirmed report.

Most people carry their phones in a confined space with other objects. That's what they're designed for. It's not an excuse for catching fire (if in fact that occurred).

Oh, I get that, it to me is more of a putting it into a confined space with other objects once it started getting hot seems like it could compound the problem. That obviously isn't the cause of the problem.

Alone, the ONE "alleged" incident is a non-issue. COMBINED with the PREVIOUS Note 7 fiasco, this hits harder IMO. I owned a Note 7 and went to Pixel because I didn't want to go back to the S7, after returning 2 units as we were advised. I skipped Note 8 because I still wasn't sure - one report will cause doubt and questions and I won't be one bit surprised if it slips way downhill with others "reporting" the same - true or not.

the best part of the story was the elevator got filled with thick smoke and after she kicked the phone out the elevator, like really .. your in a panic state of mind she already dropped the phone and burned her fingers and now in a thick smoke filled elevator your looking for the phone to kick ..come on

That's totally valid as this one incident can absolutely make customers nervous.

If this is true, it sucks and glad nobody was seriously hurt. Hopefully no more reports come out. Until Samsung says they recalling the note9 I'm not worried one bit. I think if they had to recall I will have a harder time letting go of my note9 than u did my 2 note 7.

Exactly!!

Exactly!!

I know this is off subject but may I ask who is that in your pic? I like it.

 

[Mr Segundus]

Oh boy...

When I had to trade in two Note 7s back in 2016, I had to settle for an iPhone 7 Plus because there was nothing else as big as the Note in the market. I don't want to have to go back to iPhone.
