OnePlus Nord CE allegedly explodes as owner posts images and details via Linkedin post

After reports of OnePlus Nord 2 exploding, a user on LinkedIn and Twitter has posted images of his charred OnePlus Nord CE claiming that it exploded right in front of him. The incident took place on January 2 and thankfully, no one got injured. However, it does raise strict questions on the quality checks that OnePlus performs for its products.

According to a post by Dushyant Goswami, his six-month-old OnePlus Nord CE exploded after he took it out of his pocket after feeling unwarranted heat. “I bought a One plus Nod CE 6 months ago. The phone has been working well all this while. The phone exploded right infront of me on January 2, 2022. I am lucky that after I felt too much heat in my pocket, I took the phone out, and within 2-5 seconds it exploded,” Dushyant writes in his LinkedIn post.

I own phone from very popular brand ONEPLUS,which promises best quality. My phone is only 6 months old & it literally blasted yesterday, while i just pulled it out from pocket. Its not only bad but fatal. Is brand gonna answerable 4 the accident?#ShamefulForOnePlus #Needjustice pic.twitter.com/ZEJa4Z1EAt

He also claims to have reached out to OnePlus but alleges that the company has taken no action whatsoever. Dushyant has also tagged Navnit Nakra, CEO, India region, OnePlus and company founder Pete Lau in his post. Meanwhile, OnePlus India Support has tweeted out asking Dushyant to connect with them.

This is not the first time OnePlus has come under the spotlight for one of its phones exploding. We came across two such cases in September 2021 and November 2021 where Nord 2 was met with the same fate as Dushyant’s Nord CE.

OnePlus Nord CE was launched in June 2020 with Snapdragon 750G, 64MP triple cameras, 90Hz refresh rate AMOLED display and 4,500mAh battery that supports 30W fast charging.

We have reached out to both Dushyant and OnePlus to verify the accuracy of the claim and to find out what transpired and led to the Nord CE exploding. We will be updating this story with official statements as and when we receive them.

This is a developing story. We will keep you updated.

This week in Android: It’s weird phone week

We got to play with a lot of cool tech at CES 2019 , but little was cooler than the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 . Qualcomm had a reference device sporting the new SoC and we were able to put it through its paces , including our very own Speed Test G . The results are impressive. In other big news this week, we found out Motorola is planning on bringing back the Razr phone , made famous in the mid 2000s. We don’t know a lot about the phone itself, but we can make some guesses based on a patent from August of last year. Plus, we look ahead at the future of LG and OnePlus , including a new peculiar accessory for LG . Also, we have good news and bad news about Huawei’s security. Here are your top stories for the week 4:20 – Snapdragon 855 performance and benchmarking: Speed Test G, AnTuTu & Geekbench At CES, Gary Sims previewed the Snapdragon 855 processor in reference hardware. He had some fun with it. 21:45 – You’ll flip for the foldable Motorol...

My product launch wishlist for Instagram, Twitter, Uber and more

‘Twas the night before Xmas, and all through the house, not a feature was stirring from the designer’s mouse . . . Not Twitter! Not Uber, Not Apple or Pinterest! On Facebook! On Snapchat! On Lyft or on Insta! . . . From the sidelines I ask you to flex your code’s might. Happy Xmas to all if you make these apps right. Instagram See More Like This – A button on feed posts that when tapped inserts a burst of similar posts before the timeline continues. Want to see more fashion, sunsets, selfies, food porn, pets, or Boomerangs? Instagram’s machine vision technology and metadata would gather them from people you follow and give you a dose. You shouldn’t have to work through search, hashtags, or the Explore page, nor permanently change your feed by following new accounts. Pinterest briefly had this feature (and should bring it back) but it’d work better on Insta. Web DMs – Instagram’s messaging feature has become the defacto place for sharing memes and trash talk about peopl...

First ever drone-delivered kidney is no worse for wear

Drone delivery really only seems practical for two things: take-out and organ transplants. Both are relatively light and also extremely time sensitive. Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea. He has been frustrated in the past with the inflexibility of air delivery systems, and felt that drones represent an obvious solution to the last-mile problem. Scalea and his colleagues modified a DJI M600 drone to carry a refrigerated box payload, and also designed a wireless biosensor for monitoring the organ while in flight. After months of waiting, their study was assigned a kidney that was healthy enough for testing but not good enough for transplant. Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14 ...
