As you can see in the image above, the back casing on the Nexus 7 got melted in an alleged explosion, but the melting pattern left what looks kind of like a decorative horse. I think it looks more like the knight piece from a chess set, but I’ll leave that up to interpretation. I realize this is really not that different from someone seeing the Virgin Mary in a slice of toast, but it’s still an interesting turn of events.

These images were posted on a Chinese forum, so we do have to take the story with a grain of salt. According to the original poster, the Nexus 7 was left charging for about 3 hours and then it spontaneously combusted. We haven’t heard other stories of the Nexus 7 exploding, so this is likely a very isolated incident.

The good news is that the owner of the Nexus 7 contacted Asus and got a replacement tablet immediately. That’s some good customer service!
