It is rather common these days with exploding Nokia phones. Chan's Nokia 3310 exploded after he hung up the phone while in a bank. The man was slightly injured.
The broadcast reports gave no indication about how it could have exploded, but many similar accidents have been attributed to faulty or counterfeit batteries.
"I was just calling my boss to say I would be returning to work a few minutes late, and when I pressed the button to hang up, the phone was suddenly flying everywhere," the man told ATV.

even if all nokia's would exploded people would still be folish enough to buy them
With Ericsson and Nokia gone: we must keep their spirits alive and buy JOLLA or YOTA |

Another exploding cell phone incident, reported this time in Hong Kong.
South China Morning Post, a Hong-Kong based daily, reported Sunday that a Nokia handset exploded and injured a man, according to Telecom's Korea.
"According to the report, the victim took his mobile phone out of his pocket after he felt heating. and the handset went off a few seconds later. The man had his hand burnt and got first aid by an emergency service worker at the site, the paper said.
As he told the police that he had bought his battery for about a half the normal price in the street, an inferior battery is presumed to be the main culprit."
