As smartphones have got more powerful and use larger displays, the
batteries have also had to get bigger to enable them to last the day. While
that’s great when everything works as intended, a smartphone can become a
very dangerous device if something goes wrong with the battery. Apprentice
painter Fanny Schlatter found that out first hand when a Galaxy
S3<http://www.geek.com/tag/galaxy-s3/>exploded in her pocket.

The 18-year-old was loading paint into a truck when she heard what sounded
like a firecracker. A few seconds later her pants were on fire and there
was a strong chemical smell in the air. The flames grew to the point where
they were past her shoulder in height before her boss carried her to the
bathroom to douse her with water.

Schlatter was taken to hospital where doctors informed her she had third
degree burns on her right thigh and further minor burns on her right hand.
The Galaxy S3 was also badly
burnt<http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=fr&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lematin.ch%2Ffaits-divers%2FMon-natel-a-pris-feu-dans-ma-poche%2Fstory%2F13291032&act=url>and
the battery had tripled in size and leaked, adding to the severity of
her thigh burns.

Schlatter won’t be returning to work until August 15 and has yet to have
the feeling return in her thigh. She also feels lucky her hair was tied
back and her sweater didn’t catch fire otherwise the injuries could have
been much worse. Her next course of action is to take a holiday and then
consider taking action against Samsung
<http://www.geek.com/tag/samsung>for supplying her with a faulty
product that caused injury.

It will be difficult to figure out exactly what went wrong with the phone
with only the charred remains of the device left. If it was a brand new
phone then Schlatter may have a case against Samsung or at the very least
the network who supplied it. But if it’s several months or more since she
purchased it, damage during use may have caused the device to explode. If
that’s the case, it’s important to find out what that damage was as it may
influence future smartphone design to make them safer.

It’s worth noting that in the comments on the Le Matin coverage it is being
suggested the battery and back casing she was using were not official
Samsung parts. If that is the case, then she has no chance of getting any
form of compensation from Samsung.
