And boy oh boy if Apple uses this to make ads that bash Samsung for this. That would be fun to watch.

That's just horrible, that poor girl will be scarred for life. I haven't owned very many Samsung phones (not smart phones anyway), I don't know why either cause I've heard they're good products. I guess it was my Spidey sense.

If I were you, I would throw my GS3 out through the window right away, while you still have time.
I mean, who would risk their life for a phone that can explode at you any moment?

Note: This comment is loaded with sarcasm. Lots of it.

by your logic

PS3, 360, wii, pcs, fuck every piece of technology is a piece of shit... because every piece of hardware has these symptoms, manufacturing defects,etc

you are such a know nothing its not even funny.
