Replaced Galaxy Note 7 Catches Fire On Plane by ArewaTech1(m): 1:04am On Oct 06, 2016
Southwest Airlines passenger Brian Green had one of those replacement Note7s, but that didn't stop it from catching fire this morning as he waited for his flight from Louisville to Baltimore to leave the gate.

According to Green, he got the Note7 from an AT&T store on September 21st, and the box does have the black square to indicate it's a replacement unit with a supposedly good battery. Further, he says it had the green battery icon Samsung is using to indicate post-recall phones. Green says he shut off the device, which had an 80% charge, when asked to do so by the flight crew. The phone began smoking, and Green dropped it on the floor as the plane was evacuated. Green described it as "thick grey-green angry smoke."
