The company is on fire, but not in a good way.
By now you probably know that Samsung is in a bit of a tizzy. Its new flagship Galaxy Note7 phone is 🔥🔥🔥, but not in the fun way.

The Korean electronics giant released the Galaxy Note7 smartphone in August. By September, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission officially recalled the phone, and Samsung offered customers refunds or replacement Note7 phones that were supposed to be explosion-proof.
But less than a month later, amid reports that even the **replacement** phones were exploding, Samsung has stopped the Note7's production and sales and asked everyone to return all the phones. Consumer safety agencies the world over have recalled roughly 2.5 million Note7s. Airlines have banned the phone from planes entirely. Samsung is in trouble.
TL;DR: Remember the fiery hoverboards of yesteryear?
Samsung's current situation is just like that — if the people who made hoverboards were a dominant multinational conglomerate and one of the major forces in the South Korean economy.

Let's take a moment to observe the phone's more incendiary qualities.
On a creepy home security camera in Hawaii, for instance. Or in a South Korean Burger King. Even in a Jeep in Florida. Oh, the places this phone will blow!
