Users of the newly released iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have faced several problems. One of the issues raised was that the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus is bending when placed in pockets.
MacRumors said that some of the users who complained about this have already been given new devices. But how do we really solve such problem?
MacRumors suggested a pretty easy solution. Do you wanna know what it is? Well, it's easy and it won't take much of your time! Just remove it from your pocket every time you sit down!
Citing an Apple statement commenting on the bending issues, MacRumors said that iPhone bending is "extremely rare." In a separate MacRumors report, Apple was quoted as saying that the new iPhone models use the "strongest glass in the industry," including steel or titanium inserts. It also reported that Apple only received nine complaints regarding this.
"Our iPhones are designed, engineered and manufactured to be both beautiful and sturdy. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus feature a precision engineered unibody enclosure constructed from machining a custom grade of 6000 series anodized aluminum, which is tempered for extra strength. They also feature stainless steel and titanium inserts to reinforce high stress locations and use the strongest glass in the smartphone industry," the report quoted Apple as saying.
The company went on to say that "high-quality materials" have been carefully selected for the phones' "strength and durability." Several "rigorous tests" have also been made, it added.
While many have found the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus' batteries to be better, some complaints have arised after they updated it to the latest iOS 8.1.
According to a post by gottabemobile.com, users who have iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus that don't last all day could do some changes on the Settings of their phones.
Just go to Setting, then to General, then to Usage, and finally to Battery Usage. If the number of minutes indicated in the Usage and Standby categories, then there is really something wrong, it said.
One easy solution to this problem is to reset the iPhone's settings. Just go to Settings, then to General, then to Reset, and click Reset All Settings. You can also try rebooting your phone.
Also, apps take a lot of an iPhone's battery life so better check which app is causes battery drain.
imore.com also suggested that you turn off location services, background app refresh, and push notifications. You can also put your iPhone on Airplane mode, it added.
Another issue to iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users is the WiFi. gottabemobile.com provided some steps to help fixed this problem.
First, you need to install the iOS 8.1 update, it said. You can do this by going to Settings, then to General, then Software Update, and finally click Download and Install.
Then, reset you router. Unplug your router and count to 45 then plug it back in, it said. "This can fix some problems easily. You can also try restarting the iPhone 6 Plus. If it only happens in specific areas of your house or office you may need to move the router," it said.
Another solution is to reset the network settings. You can do this by going to Settings, then to General, then Reset, then finally, Reset Network Settings. After this, you have to enter a passcode. Then just wait for it to reboot. When finished, try to connect again with your router.
