Yeah, that's actually a feature.

  1. If I'm not mistaken, that looks like an induction hob. What's the bet someone left it on?

    Agree with the other 2 comments.
    Odds are pretty short on this chancer having cooked his phone & trying to blame Nokia.
    If the 1680 was completely lethal, it is possible that one or two others would've detonated by now.

    I can just hear how this went, immediately afterwards:
    Girl: "you total 'tard, you've left a ring on & cooked your mobile"
    Bloke: "...er...didn't"
    Girl: "If that's so, you'd better go to the papers about it"
    Bloke: "what? er, okay"
    Girl: "ooh, I love it when you're so masterful. You can do me up the wrongun"

    ...sorry, got a bit carried away at the end there.
