Samsung's exploding phone crisis is Six Swedish Girls at a Pump (High Test Girlsgetting worse.

A 6-year-old boy was rushed to the hospital in Brooklyn, New York on Saturday after a Galaxy Note7 caught fire in his hands, according to a report in the New York Post.

SEE ALSO: Guess what? Any phone could explode, not just Samsung's Galaxy Note7.

"The child was watching videos on the phone when the battery exploded," Linda Lewis, the boy's grandmother, told the newspaper. She later said he has since been released from the hospital.

This may be the first injury caused by the defective phones, though Samsung says it knows of at least 35 instances of the Note7 battery exploding or catching fire.

If the Note7 is your only device, you're up the creek without a paddle.

Samsung is working with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to officially recall the device, but the incident in Brooklyn suggests that may be too little, too late. If the Note7 is your only device, you're up the creek without a paddle: You could exchange the device with your carrier, but if you don't have time for the hassle, are you supposed to go about your business without a working phone? Good luck with that in 2016 -- especially if you're traveling, as the Federal Aviation Administration has warned against using the phone on planes.

Besides, Samsung and carriers haven't provided clear information about what customers should do with their Note7 phones. Initially, carriers said to reach out to Samsung directly. Then, Samsung asked customers to circle back with their carriers. And no one seems to know when replacement Note7 phones might hit the market -- at least based on conversations I've had with Verizon as a Note7 owner myself. (Womp womp.)

Your best bet right now is to go to your service provider -- Verizon, AT&T, whatever -- and exchange the phone for a different model entirely. The only problem there is that the Note7 was dubbed the best smartphone you can buy today before it got all explodey, so anything you sub in will be a downgrade.

Meanwhile, a little company called Apple is launching a shiny new line of iPhones on Friday. Good timing.
