Note 20 Ultra melted and exploded video.

I am chalking it up to something that I must be doing - but I can't figure out what since I don't charge it when it doesn't need charging. I typically let it go through a cycle before recharging. I don't do anything special. I don't leave it plugged in forever. I actually do not use Fast charge all the time since most of my chargers were not.

None of those practices would be improper anyway; none of them should pose any risk of battery damage. If it's indeed something you're doing, I would look more toward mechanical factors. Were you putting frequent stress on the frame, perhaps by sitting on the phone or using too tight a case?

At least he was spared the more terrifying experience of having to deal with Samsung's customer service.

So true! Remember that from my two note 7's time with them.

I think we need one of those 1-10 scales like they have in a Doctor's office asking you how much it hurts.

Don't let it bug you and don't wait. If you feel it's a legitimate concern get it fixed or swapped. Overheating is not good and if there's a real issue going on it could be dangerous. It is definitely not normal unless on occasion you are overworking the device.

Yeah it's sporadic. Usually when I'm watching videos or have my screen one for awhile it gets super hot. I have no samsung repair shops near me. Now if it were say best buy or something I'd be like here and they'd had me a new one. Never dealt with samsung and warranty before. Like what are the chances they'll actually exchange it?

And like how does the warranty work. Don't I have to be without a phone till they figure out what's wrong with mine? I don't want a repaired device I want a replacement device

Are you still within the return period? You would have to talk to Samsung. I don't think they will just ship you a device and let you return yours later. Some carriers will do that but if you bought it direct from Samsung you will have to deal with them. I know Google will ship upfront during the first few weeks with a credit card hold but I don't think Samsung does that. It is also up to Samsung if they repair or replace with new or refurbished.

When I installed the battery hack it got super hot. There's a few hacks out there but im referring to the one that allows 90mhz. In ok nsyalles immediately. So far I'm using the bixby hack on med power mode to maintain the 120mjz adaptive screen and I'm getting better battery without the high temp.

Video of TK's Note 20 Ultra that got real hot and melted/exploded battery. Interesting.

My Note 20 got hot out of the blue one time, not this bad and I've had not problems since.

This is just the first one I've seen pulling a Note 7 battery blow.
