An iPhone 8 Plus 64GB has reportedly burst in Taiwan while it was being charged, raising questions about Apple’s battery provider ATL, which also made the famous exploding Samsung Galaxy Note 7 batteries.

Ever since the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 started catching fire, everyone is now looking for this problem with each new device release. In Samsung's case, it was a production mistake that cost the company a lot and forced them to retire an entire line of devices.

Apple hasn’t been spared, but the number of exploding iPhones was much lower if we take into account the total of units sold by the company. Now, their latest iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus have started to ship to customers, and some problems have already begun to appear.
