Nokia, the world largest cell phone manufacturer has recently announced that its original battery could overheat and potentially pose danger to consumers especially during charging mode. The Finland cell phone maker warned consumers previously due to the popular use of counterfeit batteries in most of its famous cell phones. But now, it seems that even the original battery supplied by its Japanese vendor could pose the same risk to consumers. The affected batteries were manufactured since December 2005 until November 2006 and were said to reach 46 million units in the market.
