In a development that is reminiscent of the infamous Galaxy Note 7 saga, a Samsung Galaxy S25+ just caught fire in South Korea after it failed to charge.<\/p>\n

\"Damaged<\/a>Samsung Galaxy S25+ catches fire<\/p>\n

A person who goes by the username “Chew ee jan” posted on Samsung’s Community Forum yesterday that he was holding his Galaxy S25+ in his hand – presumably to investigate its failure to charge – as the smartphone’s temperature soared, and he heard a “puck” sound. As the user threw his phone on the floor, it apparently caught fire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As per a preliminary investigation conducted by Samsung’s Service Center, the cause of this spontaneous combustion incident is as yet unknown.<\/p>\n

There is a lot that we do not currently know about this incident. For instance:<\/p>\n

Was an official Samsung charger being used?<\/p>\n

How was the phone typically charged? Under a pillow, on a table, or near a heat source?<\/p>\n

Were the smartphone’s batteries replaced prior to this incident? <\/p>\n

Each of these unanswered questions poses a distinct implication as to how this incident would be interpreted and dealt with by Samsung.<\/p>\n

Of course, any combustion-related incident for Samsung’s smartphones is promptly equated with the infamous Galaxy Note 7 saga, where a manufacturing defect caused the phone’s batteries to overheat, catch fire, and explode, prompting airline bans and, eventually, a mass recall.<\/p>\n

In any case, there appears to be no systemic fault with the Galaxy S25+ as of now. Nonetheless, we’ll keep a tab on this story and continue providing relevant updates.<\/p>\n
