Consider this a warning: a Samsung P10 laptop had its batteries melting under extreme heat, causing a small fire that burned a bed and part of the floor in a house in South Korea. The notebook computer was being used on a pillow when the incident happened.

Samsung officials did not provide any further details, save for the model of the Samsung notebook. Information concerning the battery's manufacturer was not disclosed as well. "We are checking details of the incident," said James Chung, Samsung's spokesperson.

In order to avoid fires caused by exploding or melting laptop batteries, It helps to make sure that the notebook is placed on a flat, non-flammable surface while on use. Another laptop-induced fire incident happened in Florida, where a Dell laptop blazed while sitting on papers placed on the sofa.
