Exploding iPhones Investigated by the European Commission [Alleged iPhone Safety Issue Being Investigated According to Reports]

iPhone

The European Commission is concerned about the alleged iPhone explosions that have been reported on the old continent. Apparently, the EU is investigating the whole thing as they’re interested to know if the touchscreen smartphone is dangerous to the health of users, and if it turns out that it’s a fire hazzard it may get banned from being used and from selling in stores throughout Europe.

Folks from Apple haven’t made any official statement regarding the issue, but we’re pretty sure they won’t acknowledge anything and that the response will not mention any problems regarding their device.

But since exploding electronics are nothing new, with laptops bursting in fire because of the battery, we’re being led to believe that there are either different components used in the European models or the network is causing all sorts of flaws. Or maybe it’s just that the iPhone simply don’t like it on the old continent.

We’re a bit skeptical that the smartphone will ever be banned in Europe, but hey, bad publicity is still publicity.
