Iphone 5c screen popping?

You have damaged the screen by dropping your iPhone 5C regardless of the case

Take it to an Apple store genius bar

You have voided the warranty but see if your store is one of those offering glass replacement .You will be charged.

My daughter bought the 5C in October 2013. In November, we made an appointment at the local Genius Bar to ask about the screen popping (sounds like the home button) when you press on various parts of the screen.

Person at the Apple Store replaced the phone saying they agreed it didn't seem right that the screen should make that popping noise, though the screen was still solid within the plastic case.

The new 5C eventually started doing the same thing...so we returned to the Apple Store in late December. This time, they said the popping sound was a "design feature". They claim the Apple engineers designed the screen to "give" to make the phone more durable. They said they were not told of the "design feature" until they had replaced a bunch of 5Cs.

I explained that my fear was that the "design feature" would eventually result in a flaw with the 5C after the warranty expired. They said that the 5C just won some award and I should not worry (like those awards mean anything). They also suggested I purchase Apple Care in case there was a problem after the warranty. Of course, I pointed out that the 5C just won an award and I shouldn't need Apple Care.

The 5C screen seems to pop more when it gets hot from use. To this point, it does not affect the function of the iPhone, other than to annoy my daughter when it's doing it a lot.

I've seen many reports on various websites of this issue, so thought I would share what Apple is now saying (at least at my local store in St.Louis).

Did you get replaced? Having same problem

You did not provide answer about whether they would fix the popped out problem. Just that they will fix the screen.

I have see that this is a general problem with iPhone 5c and apple silently swaps out iPhones with the customer without admitting that they need to recall this defective design that pops out in many cases. I think there should be a class action suit for this. What do others think?

I took my iPhone C out of its case, which clamps onto the plastic casing in order to keep it in place. So, when i took it off, the phone popped out of the casing in the top right corner. I tried to push it back into place thinking its an easy fix.... My screen looks like a red and blue flannel with the corner cracked severely. Great start to Thanksgiving.

Best thing to do is take it to the Apple store or an iPhone repair shop as soon as possible... don't make my mistake.
