What may be the reason?

It's really very dagerouse so I always don't take it when I go out in the rainy days.If it happen,it's really a very thing that you can't avoid.So I don't use it when it's raining.I think you also should do that like me.

Hello bhubaneshwars!:-)

Most of the 'real' cases of cell phone explosions that I have read were because of either over-charging of the battery or its over-heating. Also, mostly the batteries being used were counterfeit batteries not the original ones. Although it's said that original ones can go wrong too but there is a very rare chance.

Where I keep cellphone depends mainly on season. In winter, I keep it in my jacket's pocket and in summer in my jean's pocket. Sometimes, though, I keep it in my shoulder bag.

I would wish everybody safety and well being!:-)

hello bhubaneshwars

wow! i do not guess that i have ever heard of somebody's cell phone exploding like that for no apparent reason. and i guess that it is not safe then to be talking on your cell phone when it is storming outside? and to answer your question about where do i keep my cell phone while i am driving or out walking somewhere? my Mom got me the cutest purse for my birthday present last year, and on each side of the purse, it has small pockets on it, and my cell phone fits right down into the side pocket on my purse. lol and on the other side in the other pocket i carry a mini flashlight in case that i need to see something in the dark. lol i have gotten lots of compliments on my purse.

have a beautiful afternoon.

Hi bhubaneshwars! These cell phones are probably defective but I am just really guessing. I have heard a few incidents that when charging cell phones, they have exploded too. This is dangerous too for it can cause fire especially if the phone is left charging on a bed where the linen can catch fire easily. These news are really scary. I usually put my phone inside my bag or sometimes in my pants' pocket.
Take Care and God Bless!

This sounds a little worrying, but I take solace from the fact that there are many millions of cell phones in the world and we are not hearing about too many explosions. I usually keep my cell phone in my shirt pocket also, or my jacket pocket in the winter.

I don't have a cell phone but have alot of friends that do and I haven't heard of this cell phone exploding thing ever this is the first time. All I can say is that is some scary stuff and I will have to ask my friends on this one for I don't know. I hope this never happens to any of them. The only thing I can come up with is the phone over heating or the batteries being bad. I hope everyone w/ cell phones take extra caution and keep safe.

wow! I didnt know that a cell phone could do that! I mean I know that it would do it with a house phone but I didnt know about a cell phone! I have no idea how this can be, but thank you for this story its a real eye opener! I dont think I'm carrying my phone on stormy days lol

Maybe this is a rare case. I never heard about a mobile phone that just exploded without any reason. Though I watch a news few months back about a mobile phone which exploded while it was charged. The reason might be overcharged or the battery is an immitation or the phone itself. And that was the only news I heard about a mobile phone that explode.

I carry my mobile phone with me whereever I go. Though I am also aware that its not good to use it when you are at the gas station so I see to it that it is off when I am within the vicinity of a gas station. Just to be safe.

I usually keep my mobile nearby in the house and if I am out I will always keep it in my handbag! There have been a few cases of phones exploding around the world and it is thought that it is something to do with the batteries although I am not sure what exactly causes it! These incidents are few and far between and I guess there are risks with everything electical and electronic! xxx

Wow! I didn't hear about any of this. My cell is either in my pants/shorts pocket, my car console, or sitting somewhere in the house. Could be the copper combined with moisture (rain) that is doing this.
