The image shared by Maheshon on his Twitter account shows the rear bottom portion of the phone, which is completely damaged, except the camera system. Also, it is unclear whether anybody was hurt during the incident or not. Poco has acknowledged the issue and said that the safety of customers is a priority, and the company takes these matters very seriously.
Poco is also investigating the matter to find the cause and to make sure that it is resolved at the earliest. A similar incident took place in September 2021 with Poco X3 Pro, and the company had claimed that it was customer-induced damage. Smartphones are claimed to go through various levels of stringent quality tests by the company. Despite that, reports of smartphone blasts are coming up frequently, which is why the quality of smartphones has become questionable nowadays.
