Samsung Note 4 ‘exploded’ next to girl, 4, as she slept leaving her with second degree burns on her face
A dad claims that his daughter was burned after a Note 4 device burst into flames next to where she was sleeping
A FOUR year old girl suffered second degree burns to her face after her dad's Samsung phone "exploded" next to her while she slept, he has claimed.
The tot was lying next to a bedside table on which the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 was charging.
Samsung was forced to scrap its Galaxy Note 7 smartphones in 2016 when customers complained that they were bursting into flames and airlines banned them over safety fears.
It recalled three million handsets after the dangerous defect appeared within weeks of its grand launch in August.
The manufacturer launched a vast inquiry into what was behind the problem that is expected to cost the company an estimate 5.3 billion dollars (£4.3 billion).
