Are you one of the many people who has been suffering from the unexpected shutdown of your iPhone when it is at a ‘healthy’ amount of battery life?
Well now Apple has finally addressed the problem, acknowledging that there is indeed an legitimate issue with a ‘small number’ of iPhone 6s devices.
In the full statement, the tech giant says ‘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’
So, if your device was purchased between September and October of 2015 then you might want to get in touch with Apple and find out if you can fix those incredibly annoying battery drops once and for all. And, if not, we’ve got a handy guide to other solutions right here.
