Fox news posted a article about a S7 edge that caught fire and the owner went to Samsung and they basically said too bad you're out of warranty.

Well of course that would be the response

More or less - We stand behind the quality of the millions us Galaxy devices in use and are taking this isolated incident seriously by thoroughly investigating it.

There was also a case of an regular S7 in the UK at a restaurant the went up in smoke on the table. There was video of that.

Also those incidents over in Europe it's likely it is the exynos models.

This story about the Edge is on a phone over two years old. All sorts of things could have been done to it.

Anyway I just find the guys claim about thinking the phone would last him a long time is funny. Dude, these phones don't. Eventually they stop updates and they slow down and the apps get all wonky. My mom uses my dads old S5 now and the thing is a POS. slow, buggy and some apps don't work correctly.

I never expect a phone to last 3 years. Not that I'd keep it that long because as soon as the Note 10 comes out I will be buying that.

How so?

the water in the bucket doesn't make since, and it's just some interesting scenerios

What does it make sense to you about it?

If you read 44:47 of the lawsuit, it seems to indicate that a person took the phone, tried holding it under running water, that didn't work (to stop the smoke) and so he went and retrieved the bucket of water and they submerged the phone.

The reason I'm pushing back on the video is that he went almost 3 minutes without saying anything that could be considered to be supporting an evidence based world view and then immediately generated 4 hypothesis, two of which are impossible to support with any evidence. Basically it is a 5 minute video to say, "we don't know what happened because there is a lack of publicly available information on which we could form any conclusions". But he's unable to just say that, and so delves into the drama instead.

As for the four possible "truths", they're logically incoherent in the most favorable response and outright deliberate falsehoods in a common sense response.

We can eliminate 1 and for as follows:

4) We know the phone isn't a clone because we know who she bought it from.

1) We know that she didn't fabricate the whole thing, because it obviously happened. There are witnesses, injuries, property damage, etc. The phone definitely did burn.

Those make his "4 possible truths" come down to two outright lies and then two choices that are fairly obvious as the only two possible choices: it is either an isolated incident or it isn't. 2) It's either caused by something that happened to the phone or 3) by a defect within the phone.

What we don't know is why. And depending on the reason, we then don't know if there is any risk to any other phones and if there is, we don't know how it'll be dealt with.
