Samsung Identifies Cause of Galaxy Note 7 Fires

Reuters reports that a Samsung Electronics investigation into what caused some Galaxy Note 7 smartphones to catch fire has concluded that the battery was the main reason.

This of course comes as no surprise to anyone, as it has been assumed to be the issue from the very first reports of fires. However, notwithstanding that, Samsung will announce the results of their investigations on 23 January, one day before their fourth quarter results. 

However, it seems that Samsung may have other things to worry about:
