Apple EarPods Explode In Your Ears
A man from Florida USA, was enjoying a workout at his local gym, listening to music via his Apple Earpods.
The Earpods started pumping out smoke as he ripped them from his ears.
The earpods were destroyed and showed signs of flame damage, he knew he had a hot body after working out each day, but did not realise he was that hot.
Luckily he was not injured during the event, due to his quick response when he realised something was very wrong.
No one knows what caused the Apple Earpods to explode, and it is not the first case that has been reported, although Apple say they take customer complaints seriously, they failed to comment.
Sounds like a cheap product being sold at premium rates to me.
Apple has some of its components produced by Foxconn. An employee gets there $ 2 an hour. The working conditions there are horrible as mentioned in several articles: https://www.cultofmac.com/523579/apple-faces-new-accusations-of-harsh-conditions-in-supply-chain/
I'm sure with this kind of supply chain you can't have high quality products
shortcuts all the way, and slave labour leads to shit electronics.
The guy is lucky not to have damage!
Yeah I think he felt it straight away.
