That woman burned her thigh area because of that. Luckily, there are no any news from exploding or burned HTC devices so far. May be that's because of their superior built quality. Of course, my HTC M8 is heating but when it's starting to get cold, it's getting cold much faster than plastic phones. Anyway, I am not going to discuss about exploded phones anymore.
BTW, Android OEMs should come up with better cooling tech now. I think Z2 already has a cooling tech, still my colleagues complaining it's overheating. Actually, Z2 overheating much more than my M8. If they unable to do it, we will face a huge trouble in future.

Price wise M8 is more expensive.
It's up to you if you can afford.

I "upgraded" to an S5 from an S3. I was tired of the short battery life of the 3. I have had the 5 for about a week and I would take my dead battery back in a heartbeat. The camera on the 5 sucks! There is a constant lag. My phone is soooo slow. Plus, it is constantly kicking me out of applications. I'm taking it back on Monday. Totally disappointed.

What do you think of me, I cannot afford original Samsung batteries?
FYI I bought only original spare batteries for my S5 and Note 3 from an authorized store and never did those batteries get heat up inside my bag!

Safety first and comfort.
It is safer and more comfortable to bring a spare battery than a heavy dangerous portable charger.

LOL!

Well I've been using S4 for past 3 months & haven't faced any such issue like over heating,yeah phones do get warm if used for hours but that's normal also please do keep in mind,never use your phone while charging (just unplug it if you wanna use) & never keep your phone under blanket/pillow, it might turn out to be dangerous.
Keep safe & enjoy your gadget.

A battery inside the pocket will not heat up unless the positive and negative terminals got shorted due to accidental contact with metals like keys.

Not only phones, I hope you know the reason why there are available cooling fans for laptops and notebooks.

Not only under the pillow, this could happen even in the pocket. Most boys today wear tight jeans.

You shouldn't keep electronic gadgets under the pillow as the ventilation stops and the heat can't release.
Additionally, the girl was using a non-certified cheap battery.

Tcool, 25 Jul 2014Bad move!Hey, we just finished talking about exploded Galaxy devices. I saw a news today that a Galaxy S4 had exploded and burn when a 13 year old girl sleeping while keeping it under her pillow. Luckily no any injury to the girl.

very happy with the s5 so far. excellent camera, great browsing no lag. brilliant battery life. only the speakers are not the best' but the sound is great with headphones. as for looks i think the s5 is a good looking phone' its good to hold' not like a bar of soap like some of the metal and glass phones. most phone users use covers anyway so all you can see is the screen, which on the s5 is one of the best i have seen.
