A 13-year-old Texas girl, Ariel Tolfree was recently awoken by a smoldering
Samsung cell phone under her pillow. She placed her Samsung Galaxy S4 under
her pillow as she fell asleep. Later that night, she smelled something burning.
“I didn’t think much of it, so I went back to sleep and then I woke up again and it was more prominent,” Tolfree said.

Tolfree’s dad believes the phone overheated, causing the battery to swell and ignite a small fire.
Reacting to the report, the cell phone manufacturer says she did something they warn users about, never put your phone in a place where it might not get enough air!
In another development, Kent's Holly Hewett, 25, plugged her phone in to charge while she slept, but she was later woken up by a sizzling sound and the smell of burning. Smoke rose from her Samsung Galaxy S4 and it burned her carpet. She is now warning others not to charge their smartphones overnight.
