Hi there, everyone! How are you all doing? We hope that everything is awesome at your end and that you guys are also having a great time reading our blogs and making the most of them too. In our today’s blog, we are going to be talking about how technology can be harmful to us; if we are not paying attention. So, if you guys would want to make informed decisions for yourselves as well as for your loved ones, then make sure that you read the blog till the end, alright?
Now, we want you guys to know that the news is still not confirmed 100 percent and that there can be chances that it is fake. However, we have often seen people on the internet, suffering from financial losses when it comes to using a smart device. For example; many users complained about Samsung Galaxy Note 7 catching fire in various instances and then the tech company called for a voluntary recall from around the world in order to ensure that their customers do not have to face more such experiences.

Although, in the recent case of the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE explosion in the ear, reportedly, the company’s response is not only in poor taste but we also feel that they could do better. We have not come across a holding statement from the company either and that can cause raise some serious questions and concerns among the Samsung community. We also believe that if the company has heard something of the sort, then they must play an active role in checking out whether their product is faulty or safe to use.
That said, let’s dig deeper into the incident so that those of you guys who do not know what happened can understand what we are talking about. So, reportedly a young Samsung user, living in Turkey, purchased the Buds FE that they wanted to pair with their Samsung smartphone. They have shared they did not charge the Buds one bit and at the time, they used them, the battery percentage was around 36 percent so it can be assumed that the Buds were taken straight out of the box. However, the purchase did not go as intended as the user suffered from permanent hearing loss due to the explosion of the Buds. Now, no one can say for sure what could be the reason behind it however, the user is claiming that’s what happened. And they shared it through a note in the Samsung Community.
What is more concerning in this whole scenario is that the tech company does not want to, or is reportedly not interested in investigating it thoroughly and the worst part of this thing is that they have offered a replacement which we feel is extremely insensitive on their part. That said and since it still has to be confirmed by the authorities as well as the company itself, there are a couple of things that you guys, as smart device users can keep in mind while purchasing and using a new gadget.
For example; before buying a new gadget, you would like to make sure that you are only investing your hard-earned money on things that are 100 percent original and not 1 percent fake. We know that, at times, original products can be super expensive but that should not stop you from taking into consideration your health and safety. You would also like to research the things that you wish to purchase and only spend your money on them once you know someone in your close circle has got them too.
We would also like to suggest that you must always prefer real-life reviews over the reviews of social media influencers because let’s be honest, half of the time, they get stuff for free so they are not entirely bothered to make sure that the things they are promoting are legit or not. They just have to make a video and post it, okay? In addition to that, there’s also a usual practice that majority of the people like to ignore their smart devices are being overcharged. They either go to sleep or forget that they have put their devices on charge and this is something you should not do. No matter how busy you are, be mentally and physically present. Set an alarm or reminder somewhere so that you can unplug your phones, etc. as soon as they are charged.
That is all for today, you guys! We hope that you found this blog helpful and that you will also share it with your friends, family, and favorite colleagues. And we will see you all next time with something more useful to read.
