A Case Of Another Smartphone Explosion This Time Its Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Capture by Ejadike(m): 11:54am On Jul 31, 2017
The previous year, we have seen popular gadgets exploded. In 2016, Samsung had stopped the production of Galaxy Note 7 and recalled the existing devices because the units are found exploding after few days/months of usage. Recently, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 has been reported to have exploded in a shop in Bengaluru, India. The entire incidence has been captured by the CCTV camera used inside the shop which has led the owner of the smartphone to file a case against the manufacturer at the nearest police station in Bengaluru.

Not only Note 7, even hoverboards, iPhones and many other devices are also found exploding because of the faulty lithium-ion batteries that are used as a power source. So, we have learned that a smartphone can be your most successful companion or your worst nightmare.

The reports from some trustable sources claim that the owner of Redmi Note 4 took the phone to the service center for inserting a new SIM card and it was not connected to a charge . As soon as, the shopkeeper ejects the SIM slot to insert the SIM card, the phone bursts into flames.

The reports also mentioned that nobody was injured inside the store. But, the CCTV footage shows that the phone continues to burn till the phone owener put the fire out. The entire incidence took place on July 17, 2017.

The owner of the smartphone has filed a case against the manufacturer at the nearest police station in Bengaluru. According to the reports from Indiatimes, Xiaomi recalled the device to investigate and sad that this all happened because of using a faulty charger. The company had also claimed that they found signs of physical damage.

However, Xioaomi had still replaced the damaged phone with a brand new Redmi Note 4 within two days.

Here’s the company’s full statement:
“At Xiaomi, customer safety is of utmost importance to us.
Recently, a video has been shared across a few news publications claiming that a Redmi Note 4 unit experienced an explosive scenario. We would like to state that this video has no relation to the concerned Redmi Note 4.
After an internal investigation, we found that the only recent incident of a burnt Redmi Note 4 stemmed from a Bangalore based customer – Arjun. He had purchased a Redmi Note 4 from a Poorvika store in Bangalore on 1st June 2017. His phone was damaged at his home on 17th July 2017, following which he took the phone to the aforementioned Poorvika store on the same day.
As soon as we were alerted to this incident, we took the device back. After a thorough technical investigation, we found out that the damage was caused due to a faulty third-party charger used by the customer. In addition, there were signs of physical damage on the phone as well.
Despite the customer-induced damage, we worked with the Poorvika store where the unit was bought, and replaced the customer’s damaged unit with a brand new Redmi Note 4 on Monday, 24th July 2017. We advise our customers to only use Xiaomi authorized chargers and accessories.”
