When it comes to something as serious and potentially dangerous as an exploding iPhone, it’s essential to know all the facts and understand the entire situation. No one wants to risk their safety for a gadget.

The good news is that the chances of your iPhone exploding are very small.

There have been a few cases of exploding phones over the years, but they always seemed to be random and isolated. Concerns about exploding phones increased significantly in 2017 after Samsung experienced a series of issues with its Galaxy Note 7. The issues led to the company recalling the device, and the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration even banned the device from being brought onto U.S. flights. Even after Samsung officially fixed the issue, the devices are still banned from flights.

But what happened? It wasn’t spontaneous combustion. There were two problems with the device’s batteries that were introduced during production. Both problems led to short circuits that eventually caused the devices to catch fire.
