[rcancino]

Very sorry to hear this happened to you.

Are you sure there's no one else at the house, children or some such that may have knocked it off the table?

Spontaneus glass breakage can happen with hardened/tempered glass. It is one of the unfortunate side effects of Gorilla Glass and such.

It can happen with any model: [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=sb

It's very unlikely due to DG550 model, but more likely an issue with your specific copy. It can because of a number of reasons. Tiny scratch or chip, temperature changes (example, charging and getting very hot, then cooling down in a cold room), or many other reasons.

there are a lot of theories about it, I just know that in the night i put it charging and in the morning it was unbelievable broken , nobody touched it at all , we were sleeping ,,,,,
and sadly the display costs almost the half of a new one i´m not sure to repair it, cause it probably will broke again that i´m for sure i will never buy this brand anymore ...... I´ll prefer cubot or jiayu

As I said, this can happen with any tempered glass, Cubot, Jiayu, Samsung, Sony, HTC included.

I guess I'm stating the obvious, but looks like there may have been some imperfection or stress point at the top corner. This crack also looks like an extremely strange spontaneous crack. Normally a spontaneous crack will be single line, not shattered as pictured here. I'm not saying it's not a spontaneous crack, it's just unusual.

Large screens can break by themselves if subjected to sudden temperature changes (as can happen when charging). If you charge a phone when placed on a pillow or any other surface that doesn't dissipate heat, it might cause the phone temperature to rise sharply causing stress on the screen.

Good call. Something hard must have hit the screen at that top left corner. The radiating cracks are proof of this. This phone's screen cracked because it was hit by something hard at the point where all those radiating cracks originated from.

it´s a curious scenario ,,,, the screen protector and the body of the phone is intact, there is not some signal of scratch or hit in they, the phone had a case protector and is clean of scratch or some signal of struck , it seems that it explode from inside to outside ( the display).............saddlery I have a very expensive brick now!!!!!!

Have you ever monitored your device while charging?

Extreme heat by the cpu can cause this as charging can overheat the board.
