The airline incident was from a person known to be shady. And the phone in question was of a replacement phone with the ‘design flaw’ addressed.

Excuse me? Where is your proof of that? The incident was well documented including an investigation by Southwest Airlines and the NTSB and the FAA. There are photographs of the phone on the floor of the aircraft:


and there was damage done to the carpet where the phone was thrown when it started burning before being kicked out on the aisle of the aircraft (above photo) on the aircraft.

According to Green, he “powered down the phone” when he entered the plane and placed it in his pocket, which is when it began to smoke. He dropped it onto the floor of the plane and saw a “thick grey-green angry smoke” emanating from the device. The phone later burned through the carpet and subfloor of the plane, which a friend of Green’s observed when he returned to retrieve some personal items, The Verge added.

The friend kicked it away from the damaged area and took a photo of the too-hot-to-touch phone in the aisle of the plane (above photo).

This was NOT just a claim by an individual. I've seen the video recordings of the news interviews of the individual, the airline cabin attendants, and passengers around him, who witnessed the incident and who were evacuated from the plane! This happened. There was NOTHING "shady" about this family man who was on board with a friend, as I recall.

The phone had just been powered down per instructions of the cabin attendants when it started smoking! There have been at least SEVEN MORE SUCH INCIDENTS with replaced Samsung Galaxy Note 7s since this one. That is why Samsung stopped replacing the recalled ones with the so-called safe models and is now dropping the entire model! SHEESH!

Now you can keep dancing but you don't do it very well, toeing the line of Samsung's propaganda.

The implication is in the story itself. I provided the links above. Do your own homework! Look it up!

You presented photos without links and you were asked to provide them. Provide them or go away!
