Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Explodes, Chars MacBook

A Samsung Galaxy Note 7 owner in China has been left stunned by his smoking phone. In a video taken on September 26, Hui Renjie showed the damage on both the front and the back of his phone. The burning Samsung phone also charred the MacBook Pro it was laid upon.

Hui said in a Weibo live video</a> that Samsung refused to apologize or compensate for the incident but merely kept the matter on record. Hui can be seen in an October 26 video</a> being manhandled by a person he described as a Samsung employee.
