So I was charging my oculus quest 1 overnight with a 5v 3a charger (samsung) and taking out the charger, I tried putting it on and turning it on, it turned on , showed the logo and the screen flashed some colors and I instantly smelt something burning. After that it started bootlooping and one of the eyes started acting weirdly (as if a gpu dies on a pc, looked kind of similar) i havent turned it on since (it's been like 2 hours or so)
Forgot to add, I'm scared to turn it on, because what if it catches on fire?
If you had a smell of burning electronics or plastic, definitely do not switch it on again. It could go on fire. It could be that it can be repaired but if you damage it more it might not be repairable. Are there any signs of melting or burning on the exterior of the device or any swelling at the front where the battery is located? Your best option, if it's under warranty is to start the process of getting it replaced. If warranty is finished try to find a repair shop in your area. Just one question. Are you sure that it didn't get any water inside it?
I'm not 100% sure water didn't get inside it, but I'm like 98% it didn't cuz i don't live alone and the exterior is completely fine. Also warranty is long gone.
