A recent incident involving a Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro has raised safety concerns after the smartwatch reportedly overheated while being worn overnight. The device allegedly experienced severe thermal issues during use, leading to an uncomfortable and hazardous situation for the owner.

According to the report, the wearable drained its entire battery charge overnight as it heated up excessively. The user subsequently discovered that the heat buildup from the watch had left a burn blister on their wrist where the device rested.

While severe overheating incidents in modern smartwatches are relatively rare, battery malfunctions or background software glitches can occasionally trigger excessive heat generation. It remains to be seen whether this was an isolated hardware defect or a broader operational issue.
