why are samsung batteries blowing up?

‍

It seems that exploding Samsung smartphone batteries are a thing now. After the incidents of Galaxy Note 7 explosion, now it is the Galaxy S7 that is going through the same issue. There have been reports of several devices catching fire either after charging or during normal use.several youtubers MARQUEES BROWNLEE, MRWHOISBOSS, ZACHRIGEVERYTHING have all raised concern on the above. Even though no one has died in any of these fires reported so far, this is still pretty scary. Lithium ion batteries are prone to exploding if they are damaged or mishandled in some way, and there’s good reason for all those warnings you see about not charging your phone in bed, leaving it on airplane mode when not flying, etc. Unfortunately, we won’t know exactly what went wrong until an investigation takes place and more details become available. With exploding smartphones becoming a trend now, let us take a look at the main cause behind this incident.
Is it really a battery problem?

First, let’s make sure that the battery is the main culprit in this case. This is not just a hasty conclusion based on the fact that batteries have caused similar problems in the past. There are specific reasons why this might be happening, which are as follows: – Lithium ion batteries are usually found in devices that need to be portable. They are also prone to overheating and catching fire when they are not handled properly, which makes them a dangerous choice for smartphones. – Samsung’s exploding batteries are mostly happening to devices in the S7 series, which is a bit odd since the Note 7 battery problem was due to two specific issues. First, the batteries were too big for the phone (which is why they were replaced with a smaller battery). Second, the lithium batteries were not manufactured properly, so they were prone to overheating.

The most likely cause: Manufacturing mistakes

The Note 7 battery problem wasn’t just manufacturing error. It was a combination of an oversized battery that couldn’t fit inside the casing, plus a bad batch of batteries. The Galaxy S7 battery problem, however, is likely just a manufacturing error. Phones have been exploding at an alarming rate lately, and most of them are Samsung devices. This is not a coincidence, and it is also not Samsung’s fault per se. Instead, it is most likely an issue with the manufacturing process itself. This is the most likely culprit at this point. The batteries used in the S7 and the S7 Edge are smaller than the ones used in the Note 7, so there aren’t any space issues here. The problem is likely in the manufacturing process, which could be faulty, or the materials used could be of low quality.
Excess pressure on the battery

Another theory is that the batteries are being put under more pressure than usual. 

This could be because the battery inside the device is thicker than normal, or the device’s casing is too thin. This could cause the battery to overheat, which could lead to an explosion. There have been several reports of Galaxy S7 devices that have exploded while charging. This could be due to the fact that an S7 device takes longer to charge than an S7 Edge. It is also possible that the device’s internals are thicker than usual because of the hardware inside the device. This could cause the battery to be pressed against the inside of the casing, which would cause it to overheat and potentially explode.
Samsung might have cut corners

Finally, there is also a chance that Samsung just cut corners

 in terms of the materials that they used to manufacture the batteries. This is not very likely, but we can’t rule it out as a possibility. The Note 7 battery problem happened because Samsung tried to use a cheaper battery than what they used in the S7. They might have done the same for the batteries in the S7, but with even less quality control. Again, this is just speculation, but it is worth considering. If anything, this is a reminder that all companies need to do their due diligence when it comes to manufacturing products.

Conclusion

At this point, it is impossible to tell exactly what the cause for the Samsung battery explosions is. What we do know is that this is not a freak accident, but something that is happening with alarming regularity. This is because batteries are prone to exploding when they are mishandled in some way or if they are of low quality. The fact that most of these explosions are happening to Samsung devices means that there is likely a manufacturing problem here. Let us hope that Samsung resolves this issue as soon as possible and that no one gets injured in the process.
