Another Day… Another iPhone 6 Defect

Fresh off of Apple’s “blame the user” approach when it comes to “touch disease” comes a new repair program. Dubbed the “iPhone 6s Program for Unexpected Shutdown Issues“, this what it addresses:

Apple has determined that a very small number of iPhone 6s devices may unexpectedly shut down. This is not a safety issue and only affects devices within a limited serial number range that were manufactured between September and October 2015. If you have experienced this issue, please visit an Apple Retail Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider and have your device’s serial number checked to confirm eligibility for a battery replacement, free of charge.

If you already paid for repairs in regards to “unexpected shutdowns”, you need to reach out to Apple to get a refund. If you have an iPhone 6s, you might want to run your serial number to see if you’re affected.

Am I the only one who remembers when Apple stood for quality and stuff like this did not happen frequently?
