Every Good Thing has some flaws and so does our favorite handset manufacturer NOKIA has got. It is the leading manufacturer today making large number of models every month rather week.
But today i was shocked when i heard the news that 3.5 crores of nokia’s batteries are faulty, they can blow away your set like a fire cracker 😛
Yeah it is true, at first i could not believe to what i was watching, but when i listened to the whole story, i came to know that nokia had some battery manufacturing defect in which the battery gets overheated which may result in exploding the battery on charging. Take a look at what nokia has to say about this :-
“Nokia has identified that in very rare cases the affected batteries could potentially experience over heating initiated by a short circuit while charging, causing the battery to dislodge. Nokia is working closely with relevant local authorities to investigate this situation. ”
Well But as you know nokia wont let its customer base suffer in india or through out the world, so this big fish has something to offer i.e. free battery to the customers who own the faulty one. It may be a precautionary measure before someone sues nokia corporation :p
So go Ahead, dance a bit, if your battery is enlisted in those faulty ones, cause nokia gonna deliver new batteries to every person who has got the faulty ones, now to check yours, visit the site http://nokia.com/batteryreplacement and read? further on that site, about the steps involved to check your battery’s consistency.
This also saves nokia from replacing the handsets from now on, which may explode cause of these batteries, cause they have cleared their point nation wide and they will only replace batteries and not handsets..
Clever they are !

Anyway, thanks for bringing this issue to my notice. Fortunately my battery is not one of the faulty ones.
