A really unlucky OnePlus One owner recently had their handset explode into flames while charging it overnight. Fortunately, the user was unharmed in the incident.
This past weekend, a OnePlus One user awoke in the middle of the night near 2-AM to the smell of fire. He shortly realized that his OnePlus One handset was in smoke and flames beside him. Luckily, he threw the handset away from his bed and managed to be okay. Nobody can be exactly sure to why the incident took place. Most signs point to a battery explosion due to fully exposed battery in the pictures below.
OnePlus customer service said they would replace the handset, but also mentioned that there is not much the company can do about it. The company definitely has some explaining to do as to why this occurred. If the user didn’t awake in his sleep, it could of took his life. The pictures below contain what was left of the handset after the explosion.
