iPhone 6s Quality Issues
Black Box
02-05-2016
Has anyone else had any problems with their iPhone 6s?

Since I bought it in December it has had;

- A new screen fitted due to light leakage
- A new home button due to it sticking
- A second new screen fitted due to stuck pixels.

Now it makes a strange buzzing noise when the screen is illuminated. I have an appointment soon with Apple.

I have heard about many other issues with the 6s too from family and friends. My 5 was perfect for the three years I had it. Has build quality dropped?

Nope. Touch wood my 6s has been perfect since I got it in October. My 5 was perfect for three years before that.

I'd point blank ask for a replacement. Tell them you're not happy that's it's had so many issues and ask outright for a replacement. They are usually pretty good and should replace it with a white box one (they call it refurbished but they are as new).

At the end of the day even with the best quality control sometimes you'll get a faulty one.

We have two 6S plus and one 6S here but they have been great since the launch date.

Had my 6s for about 6 months now and it's been spot on.

Hmmm...maybe I just got a bad one as another poster said.

I think I will ask Apple for a replacement this time, seen as it will be the fourth repair.

Only had mine 2 days after upgrading from a 5C . Happy with it. Hope I don't get any of these issues !

I'd definitely ask for a replacement after that many issues. Haven't had a single problem with any of our iPhones, touch wood.

Wonder if the subsequent issues could have been caused by a poor repair job? Was it always repaired by Apple?

Apple would normally just replace the phone. Why did they repair it?

Only in store if they can't do the repair with one if their fancy repair machines. If you use their "postal" service it's nearly always a repair.
