Blog:Apple denies ‘exploding’ iPhones
number of iPhones that reportedly “exploded” in France were not due to the battery overheating as had been suggested, Apple has said.
The firm said that all of the handsets they had seen with broken screens were caused by an “external force”.
Watchdogs had launched investigations after reports of iPhones that had exploded or cracked spontaneously.
France’s top trade official is meeting with the financial director of Apple France to discuss the claims.
Herve Novelli, secretary of state for trade and consumer affairs, said he would question Apple’s Michel Coulomb about the “causes of the implosion of these devices and eventual measures they could take,” according to AP.
Consumers in the UK, Holland and Sweden had reported similar problems.
