I thought all US planes were "No Smoking" areas. . .

Someone should tell Samsung.

Samsung may not survive this intact.

We flew from Georgia to Texas and back last week and I bet I heard 30 warnings in the airport and on the planes singling out these phones.
Horrible advertising blaring throughout the entire airport on an hourly basis.

As an Apple guy, ‘twould be easy to snark. However, there is an obvious problem with either the battery manufacturer or with the charging protocol programmed into the phone. If it was the protocol, that probably came from the battery manufacturer’s direction.

Could happen to anyone using that line of batteries.

“It never got hot, it never gave me any indication that there was anything wrong with it. It did what I assume it would’ve normally done under a power-down cycle,” Green said.

“Never got hot” ... damn, and I was thinking about getting a couple of these before deer season to use as hand warmers.

I guess I’ll just stick to my old trusty Zippo pocket hand warmers. Just as well, perhaps the deer would pick up on the Samsung smoke and be spooked.
