Q: Weird screen on iphone 6 when turning off

Dear fellow apple users (Iphone 6 in particular),

 

I did a soft reset today on my Iphone 6 because it was a bit slow'ish. That turned out fine.

But something that has been bothering me since, is that the screen had a weird colour when I did that. So I tried again.

After 2 times a soft reset, both times it got me a weird looking screen on turn-off. It looks a different colour everytime, and not in the same place.


However, when in use the Iphone works without a hitch, no weird colours of any kind.


Still, it bothers me. For it did not have this behaviour previously before the new IOS update.

It is worth mentioning that the Iphone has not sustained any damage, either from falling or water, since it never got wet or did experience a fall.


If someone knows what's wrong and / or knows how to fix this issue please let me know.


iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2

    Hi, I'm having this problem since I updated to iOS 10 on my iPhone 6: when making the soft reset I'm seeing strange screen colors like a damaged video card.

    Since I had a problem on the screen I thought it was related with that and I went yestrday to visit a Genius at the Apple Store and they told me that it seems to be a software problem and they already heard from several customers the same issue (also the Genius staff told me to have the same problem)... They replaced the screen for a black spot on the top left corner and still, when resetting I can still see the same screen issues. Should just be a software bug on iOS 10.
