It looks like Apple might need to address consumers after images of a burnt-to-a-crisp iPhone 7 have left the internet asking a lot of questions. Before we all laugh it off as just another Samsung Note 7 experience, let's look at the facts.
Reddit user kroopthesnoop posted the photos of the phone, explaining that a co-worker ordered the new iPhone 7. They stated that when it arrived, the packaging was completely damaged and the phone itself was burnt. Although everyone was quick to assume that the iPhone exploded, which may be the case, it's also possible that the package had a rocky journey to its owner, causing it to be completely destroyed.
Earlier in September, Samsung Note 7 phones were recalled after many users saw their phones explode and catch fire, but that issue was caused by overheating batteries and this new iPhone's battery wasn't on in the package. All rest assured, though - in an update on the post, the Reddit user said Apple contacted the co-worker about the phone and has sent a replacement phone. What do you think happened to this crispy iPhone 7?
