The girl's father, Feng Lingling, told local papers that the phone was purchased in August last year in Puding county, near where the family lives in Anshun. It cost 2,699 yuan ($390).

The retailer that sold the phone confirmed it was a genuine product to the Guizhou Metropolitan Daily.

However, Samsung sent someone to check Feng's phone after the explosion, and insisted that the battery within was fake.

The South Korean electronics giant said in a follow-up statement: "We would like to express our concern to those injured, and we have been communicating with our client, in order to find out the cause of the problem."
