Replacement Note 7 explodes.... on a plane

The stronger curved edges make the S7e impossible to hold for me without putting a case on it. Also, it's impossible to find a decent glass screen protector for the S7e, while there's at least still hope in the Note's case.
Apart from that, the Note7 is running a drastically refined version of Touchwiz. But I guess Samsung could release that for the S7 as well.

I believe I read that he turned the phone off because it had started to get hot... Which, if true, means it most likely was already in the process of failing... At which point turning it off wouldn't help much.

Probably way better for you than having a Note7 blow up in your eyes during a VR pr0n session...

Battery fires are not new. Lithium batteries have a problem as a whole. And have been causing problems for years.
You can find a lot of cases were these batteries have caught fire on aircraft. It is not just the Note 7. In fact they don't have to in a device to fail.

Oops just read that he dropped his N7 right b4 boarding! That means it was damaged from the fall then burned up. And vaping is not bad for your lungs.
That doesn't make me feel a lot better. I've dropped my HTC m8 and iphone 6s slot of times and never had it react like this.
I really want to repurchase this phone, nothing else comes close...just no confidence any more.
Do you happen to have the link to the story? I'd be interested in seeing that. All I've heard was it "exploded".

Don't think so. Original article stated he said was simply turning it off as requested and it was at 80% when he did. Then shortly after- it got hot and flamed.
Not adding up. Still. Added: Never trust a Louisville Cardinal fan. Ever. Yes I'm generalizing since was in Louisville.
Oh, Go Cats!
I came across when I was reading a Taiwanese electronic forum and this guy mentioned why the N7 ignite by itself. It is is the volume key may have been pushing the battery for a period of time and the battery itself won't ignited instantaneously.
Do you people agree why the battery ignite by itself ?
This is the original post from the forum.

It caught fire and then quickly burned out. No explosion or Alien like acid burning through the hull as drama kings and queens have embellished.
That sad, the story and situation still seems too concise and convenient. Still not adding up, for whatever reason.

Exactly, since there have been zero issues to date with this phone. Must be the apple cabal at work.

That makes me think of the Bloomberg comments on the issue where people looking at the phones noticed the batteries bigger than space allocated and pinching components. They things are just time bombs if true... expensive snap caps waiting to be dropped at someones feet with a delay pop and burn afterwards. 
If true that is wholly not acceptable.
