Strange how that works. A few Samsung phones explode and Samsung phones are declared dangerous. One Hyundai explodes and obviously all electric cars are somehow inherently dangerous.
- lifthrasiir 7y ago> A few Samsung phones explode and Samsung phones are declared dangerous. As far as I recall (I haven't rigorously collected the statistics), about 10--20 phones exploded in the first month the issue was raised. One explosion at any time is an accident, multiple explosions in a month are not. The Kona explosion can be thus regarded as an accident until something more fishy happens.
