…and will probably explode.

Are solid state batteries having issues with catching fire? I thought that was liquid batteries? Or is this just like saying everything bad that ever happened with lithium ion batteries will happen with everything else?

It was just a joke, ffs.

Samsung devices & appliances are notoriously prone to catastrophic failure - as a matter of fact, I actually had a Samsung TV melt itself - which turns out is a common issue (Google “Samsung tv melting corner”).

Then there’s the Samsung battery fire issues, Samsung refrigerator safety lawsuits, etc.

I have an 12? year old Samsung LED TV. It's good. Getting rid of it while it's still working is such a waste.
