iPhone 6 screws help!

Apple should have access to the history of your Apple care cases. If you used different emails or Apple ID's you may want to tell them about it, but the serial number should be enough for them to access the history.

Login & view it yourself… https://supportprofile.apple.com/

I don't understand how the screws can become 'stripped' - normally that happens when you attempt to undo them with the wrong tools. When an Apple technician views the unit they should tell you if they think the unit has been opened, which voids the warranty. You may just be using 'stripped' in the wrong way 🙂

Good luck with it.

How do you know that they are stripped?

Well you may have different models, Apple change the designs of some parts.

Look at sites like iFixit to see how the screws have changed over time.

Some devices may have 'star' shaped ones…

'Stripped' can mean several things for screws -

'stripped head', e.g. the screwdriver spins instead of biting into the screw head.

'stripped thread', e.g. the screwdriver grips the screw head, but the thread is worn away so the screw spins making it difficult to remove.

Whatever your own definition of 'stripped' is! 🙂

If you haven't opened this device and have no reason to suspect anyone else has opened it, stop worrying about it see what Apple say at the store.

Apple generally replace faulty iOS units (they don't replace screens in most cases), so take a full backup in iTunes or iCloud before you go to the Apple store. That will allow them to exchange it for a similar model if they think it is appropriate.

I cannot say what the genius bar will do for you - I don't know what has been done to the device or what Apple's own guidelines are, stop fretting & take it to the store, we can't say what might happen.

How can anyone on this site know what Apple will do? Take it in and find out!

will they even looks th the screws

First thing they look for is user damage and unauthorised servicing or tampering

The screws are clearly not the star shape like my partners, there is a star shape however it is not very defined, it looks more like a pentagon

The iPhone 6 uses pentalobe screws. That is normal.
