Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20110815-111F0-2147476226. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Model name - SM-S918U. Source model text: SCH-U450, SKU: SCHU450MRV.. Incident: This incident happened in the morning. The phone had been charging overnight, as I do every night, and I went to go unplug the charger from the phone when I realized the phone was incredibly hot. It was so hot that I could not even try to hold it or I would be burned. The phone eventually restarted itself, as I believe it overheated. A few days later, this incident happened again as I was entering the car. Luckily, I had my phone in my car's cup holder. Again, the phone was incredibly hot to the touch. If the phone would have been in my pocket or on my person, I would have been burned.
