Samsun
g is being sued by a man who says a Note7 exploded while in his pants pocket causing severe burn on his leg. This unfortunate incident happened a week after Samsung issued its unofficial recall, but still a full week before the phone was formally recalled through the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. The lawsuit seeks damages for his medical bills, suffering, and lost wages, according to Reuters.
Samsung immediately responded to this incident, urging all Note 7 owners to power their device down and exchange it immediately from the nearest Samsung Store.
