While the battery issues were related to battery drainage and the phone shutting down, Apple might have a more serious problem at hand — iPhones are exploding all over the place.

On Dec. 6, reports of exploding iPhones surfaced in China, causing the state-run Shanghai Consumer Council to call on Apple to address the complaints.

“Apple should be responsible for consumers. A lot of consumer complaints are not solved effectively,” the council said in its official statement. It had allegedly received at least 8 separate reports of iPhones exploding and added that it had seen a big rise in the number of complaints against iPhones in the past two months.

On Friday, a customer's iPhone 6s starting spewing smoke immediately after it was unplugged from charging. It then went up in flames, according to Phonearena. The customer did not give details about getting in touch with Apple or suing the company for the damages.

Similar incidents have been reported globally — such as the case of an iPhone exploding in a student’s pocket in New Jersey and another one of an iPhone exploding in Australia, burning down the person’s car.

Apple admitted a problem with their batteries, gave the world an explanation and launched a battery replacement program. But that was for batteries that were shutting down phones after they reached 30% remaining power. It was originally for iPhone 5, and then it was extended to iPhone 6 and 6S as well.

I saw a handful of 5th Gen phones come in like this and maybe one 6. I think it's less because of anything Apple does and more because people are cheap wads and buy barging bin chargers and cables. Plus there's a lot of fake MFI stuff out there too, which should be illegal and have serious repurcussions for those selling them.
