Exploding iPhones! - Apple looking into the reports
Brandon DavenportApple is investigating media reports that one or more of the company's iPhones have exploded in Europe, a European Commission spokeswoman said Tuesday.
Yes, a few iPhones have exploded, but we shouldn't be scared of having an iPhone in our pocket... Right? What is the cause?
Apple said it knew about the media reports, which includes a teenager in France who said he was slightly injured when his iPhone made a weird noise and shattered. I dont think he would buy another iPhone again!
Apple have come back to us ... and what they've said to us is that they consider these are isolated incidents. They don't consider that there's a general problem.
They're trying to get more information on the specific details of those incidents (reported in the media) and they will do tests as necessary to investigate the possible cause.
Helen Kearns told a news briefing.
But a spokesman for Apple Europe Ltd. said:
We are aware of these (media) reports and we are waiting to receive the iPhones from the customers. Until we have the full details, we don't have anything further to add.
