Comment on Heathrow shut after Boeing Dreamliner 787 fireparent

The iPhone 5 uses a lithium polymer battery, and has sold millions; are there reports of safety malfunctions with the batteries in that device? Or is they battery safer by virtue of design or lower power?

I've heard cases of iPhone 5s spontaneously combusting in china. I wasn't sure if they were just fakes or if there was a real issue with the battery. Thankfully, they are kind of small and the accidents are not fatal, yet.
