October 20, 2016 Lawsuit Accuses Another Samsung Smartphone Model of Exploding ------------------------------------------------------------- In technology news, a new lawsuit accuses another Samsung smartphone of being explosive. The suit claims a Samsung Galaxy S6 Active exploded, burst into flames five inches high and melted the flesh of its owner.
