Update: OnePlus has provided a statement to 91mobiles on the Nord 2 blast incident. “We take such incidents seriously. Our team has already reached out to the user and we are in the process of collecting the details to investigate this further.”
Another day, another OnePlus Nord 2 blast incident in India. In a rather unfortunate turn of events, an owner of the aforementioned device has posted pictures of the victim’s charred OnePlus Nord 2 unit, and the photos, though very disturbing, paint a sorry and a very concerning picture in front of us. The tweet (embedded later on in the story) shows the owner of the device receiving severe burns due to the blast. We have reached out to OnePlus for a statement on the incident. We will update the story once we receive a statement. Let’s take a look.
OnePlus Nord 2 blasts…again
As seen in the pictures above, the alleged OnePlus Nord 2 appears to have malfunctioned owing to some fault in the left portion of the device. Because of some unknown reasons, the Nord 2 has suffered from this failure and not just the device, we can clearly see the owner of the device getting badly affected, as his thigh has caught severe burns because of the same. The owner must have kept the device in the right pocket of his jeans when the device supposedly exploded.
While this is, as we mentioned earlier, unfortunate and such issues have to be taken with utmost priority by the brand, we would urge our readers to wait it out for a while and see what the brand has for us in response to this accident. We at 91mobiles will try our best to deliver as legitimate information as possible and upon receiving any revert from the brand on the said incident, we will make sure to keep you posted on the same.
If you own a OnePlus Nord 2 and are concerned about your safety, we are sorry to say that it’s too difficult for us to assure you of the same. The Nord 2 and a Nord 2 Warp Charger have exploded in recent times, leaving us all concerned. It’s, therefore, a good idea to take due precautions. It’s a machine, at the end of the day, after all.
