Strange phone freeze with a high noise

[Olifant22]

Hello. I have been using my new Samsung S6 for two weeks now. It works well generally.

However, tonight I let it load a (HD?) video in the Youtube app and my phone suddenly froze, emitting a very strange alarm-like noise (this reminds me of a few desktop computer crashes back in the day) that hurt my ears. After like 10-15 seconds it rebooted.

It was scary, and this makes me really nervous. I hate dysfunctional hardware. I like watching videos on this beautiful screen, but I am afraid to do so now. I only found one thread on these forums about a similar crash on an old Sony tablet. Might this point to a serious hardware issue, like a problematical sound card or video card? Do I have to return this telephone? I never had any problems with my Samsung s4 mini.

Im sure its just a normal crash. My laptop does it sometimes (it really scared me too).

But, when you can return it, why not? Just in case it crashes like that again.
