This is why I check the comments first. Thank you.

#4As an avid iPhone user who does want to see Apple succeed. I genuinely feel horrible for Samsung. You can say whatever you want about corporate management at any company but at the bottom of the pole are hard working engineers who put so much time and effort into their work. The team that built the iris scanner must have worked incredibly hard with cutting edge technology to make that work in time. So the whole team deserves a ton of credit for the device. I really hope they don't discontinue the line, I hope they just keep doing great work and I believe customers will give them a chance.
The tech industry is awesome because of the beautiful (and incessant) competition. But at the end of the day, I think we all feel for the challenges that come with this line of work. When a device bends, melts, explodes; a product leads customers astray or doesn't live up to hype; that's really unfortunate.

Defective battery according to CNet:

Even replacement phones caught fire, they blamed the batteries.

#7Obviously, the battery is the fire energy source since it is the only part housing a massive energy.
Is it be possible the software (e.g. the battery management firmware) causes this? A bug is never far away, nor is an intended malfunction (hack).

#8I imagine that if the managers had delayed the recall and the problem turned out to be as they originally suspected, that would have been their fatal mistake.

#9what a click-bait title!
tl;dr: Recalling early based on the assumption that the fault was with one of the batteries' suppliers. Nothing about the root cause issue in this article.

They don't know the root cause.
