Samsung Galaxy S8 battery survives being sliced and stabbed

4.9
After the fiery debacle associated with the Galaxy Note7, which was ultimately and unsurprisingly pinned upon its battery, Samsung went back to the drawing board and came up with a comprehensive eight-point battery safety check to ensure that future smartphones, such as the Galaxy S8 would not suffer the same fate.

Now, What's Inside managed to get their hands on the Samsung Galaxy S8 and, in collaboration with Zach Nelson from JerryRigEverything, gradually disassembled the phone. Of particular interest is what happened after the device had been subjected to a Dremel multitool, which managed to cut through the smartphone's battery.
