If the same thing had happened on an iPhone, it would have hit all the major news outlets right away, which is why we have decided to relay the news published on the Boards.ie forum about what happened to an Irish Galaxy S III user.
His Galaxy S III smartphone made a small explosion noise and caught on fire on its own while it was on a car mount, not even charging.
Samsung was notified about the incident and started an inquiry to determine the cause the damage.
We all remember that similar accidents occurred on iPhones, which lead to intense media coverage for a few days before going back to normal as no design flaw was found.
