The product, in the report: Tempered glass screen protector manufactured by Pure.gear
I bought a pixel 3xl phone two weeks ago. It came with a (pure.gear) tempered glass screen protector. Yesterday, after pushing my phone into my shirt pocket, I felt a sharp prick on my left thumb.When I looked at it i was bleeding. I took my phone out and saw that the screen protector was slightly cracked. I proceeded to peel the screen protector off and the problem was gone.

The product, in the report: One “Pure.Gear” iPhone electronic charging device
For several months I used without incident an electronic charging device manufactured by “Pure.Gear” in my car to charge my iPhone while I used my car. Earlier this week, while the charger was plugged in to a proper receptacle in my vehicle, but not plugged into my phone, the charger apparently developed a short circuit. The charger plug which would attach to my phone MELTED while lying on the leather seat of my car, and also burned a hole in the seat. There were no other items on my car seat, and the car did not catch on fire - although I believe it could have had there been papers or other flammable items exposed to the charger. My car was locked and parked in my driveway. I still have the melted charger, as well as photographs of the defective charger and of the damage to my vehicle’s front passenger seat.
