My iPhone 6 screen got cracked for no reason

My phone dropped no more than two feet a few weeks after I got it and the phone cracked on 3 corners, they want $109.00 to replace it. Even if I had Apple Care it would still cost $80.00. Apple needs to wake up and realize that they put out a crappy product this go around!

Itsrd7 needs to wake up and realize that smart phones must be handled with care.

Lol... Same thing just happened to me. I was texting and I hear this popping noise and there it was. A crack across the whole screen in the middle. And the reason why this is funny to me is because I had an apple appointment scheduled for tomorrow to see why my screen was showing yellow blemishes when the image is dark. Hooray for ruining my chances of getting the issue fixed for free ^.^ pay 800 bucks for a phone and now I gotta pay 100 for a screen if not more if the digitizer needs to be replaced.

Good plan. Think positive!

Yup. Can relate. I was reading one night when I heard a 'plink' sound. Later found out that my hubby's iPhone 6 screen had shattered around the home button. We just had the screen replaced earlier this year for legitimate broken screen. Told the Genius Bar about it and of course they didn't believe us we shelled out another $140 for it hoping that it was really a crazy fluke. Now that I see there are others experiencing the same issue, I feel kinda cheated. The guy who fixed it said it couldnt have happened because there was no bowing in the case and there was nothing behind the screen to cause a bulge. I think it could have been a temperature differential that caused the crack as the charge port is nearby and there are also lots of wiring around the home button... Just a guess. If you guys ever determine the phone to be faulty, please refund us our money.

Hi

I have had an iphone 6s plus for 4 weeks put the phone in my handbag and got it out an hour later to find small cracks in bottom left hand side of screen, no dropping etc happened I took it took apple and got no help what so ever !! Will not be buying another iphone as to only last 4 weeks for a $1000 (aud) then this is ridiculous!

I have the same problem with my iphone 6 +

My iPhone 6+ screen cracked Spontaneous!

Glad I found this discussion. The screen of my iPhone6s cracked by the navi button whilst I was holding the phone composing an email!!!!

i Have tiny fragments of glass in my thumb! Have been referred by my phone provider to local Apple Store. Going to take a print out of this thread with me!

We really don't care. We're owners just like you are.

I can appreciate your frustration. Just the other day, I was gently washing my car and the right front fender mysteriously crumpled. Since it was obviously a Honda design fault, I contacted their service personnel. They laughed at me.

Yesterday i woke up to find a crack in the top right corner of my phone (i have tempered glass) and i thought okay maybe it's because i dropped my phone or something and didnt notice the crack? but then this morning i woke up to find another crack in the bottom right corner and then i started thinking okay i havent dropped it so where are these cracks coming from? I'm still not sure whats going on can anyone help ??

What's happening is, most likely, that, some small cracks that occurred at some point in the past (probably from a drop or impact) are now finally getting larger, possibly due to changes in temperature. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

Hi. This has just happened to me too and Apple is of NO help. What ended up happening with your situation?

Did this get resolved?

You take it to Apple and pay to have your screen fixed.
