Those of you who are still using Pixel 6A want to be careful. Earlier this year, information levels about fire -catching phones began, forcing Google to issue a refreshing work to prevent excessive heat. Unfortunately, it was not enough to solve this problem.
Android Authority Saw another example of Pixel 6A combing while charging on Reddate U/FOOTYMANAGERDDICT. Apparently, the phone was set on fire when the user was sleeping on Saturday night (July 26), while 45W steam was plugged in the deck charger.
The user claims that they were awakened by a “terrible smell and a loud noise”, when the fire started. They managed to throw the phone through the charging bone to the tile floor, but before that, it was less than 40 cm (15.7 inches) on the night stand.
No need to say, being close to the bed means that there is extra damage, which includes burning sheets and damage to the surface of the nearest A/C unit. The user also mentioned that “wash (she) was hurt all day in her throat” – more than the fact that her door was closed and when she just tried to stop the spread of fire.
As a person who is awakened by the phone smoking and panic, I can’t imagine how bad it should be wake up and to see the fire near your head.
What’s going on with Pixel 6A?
The worst thing is that the phone apparently already had Google “Battery Performance Program” update The install was to prevent the batteries from heat and avoid more examples of Pixel 6A phone in flames. If what this user says is true, this update may not work accordingly.
Google has also recommended to replace the battery for all the affected devices. It is available free and through mail or as a walk -in meeting. Sadly, U/FoutyManagerDDIC claims that the walk was not available in their area.
He also claims that he did not benefit from the reasons for time, uncertainty about the process and the fact that the mail did not benefit from these alternatives and from the fact that Google only “recommended”. So it looks like they thought the update would be enough.
Although we do not know if there is any other basic problem in this phone, any pixel 6A owners should move forward with caution. Change the battery, even if it means remove your phone and stick to Google’s own charging advice – and use government chargers and cables wherever possible.
If this is not possible, do not charge the phone while sleeping or otherwise occupy. I will also refrain from using any kind of high -speed charging, as these extra speed can cause more heat speed – which is the last thing you potentially want with the fluctuating phones.
