    The cylindrical lithium cells can go off like a rocket, but the pouch cells in a phone just burn and are very difficult to extinguish.

    Apart from the Galaxy Note 7 which had a design flaw in the battery, it’s incredibly rare for a phone battery to catch fire without physical damage though.
