iPhone 6 battery dies in cold weather

There is a battery replacement program for this. You can enter your phone's serial number on their webpage to check if you phone is elegible for a free battery replacement. Good luck!

Once again: There is a battery replacement program for this.

Go here and tell Apple how they can fix this (as you already know)

The recent news about the undocumented feature that Apple wrote into the OS explains a lot. We, a family of 4 all had our phones turn off a few weeks ago when trying to take photos outside. I mean it was light jacket weather!!!!!

I guess I never thought it could be on purpose in the OS??? Apple has lost much of my respect and trust!!!!

Hmmmmmm, I dunno maybe use higher quality batteries that don't suffer in the cold as much, like the ones used in the iphone 4 s for instance, I have an old 4S that is used for work it has far more charging cycles on it it is physically much older in years and doesnt go from 100% to flat in an hour outside in temps barely below zero like my iphone 6 does outside in the same pocket of my jacket. All these apple geeks who keep on saying it just works have there heads in the sand. There is a problem with these batteries, Apple are just too obsessed with making people buy the next generation item all the time they can't be arsed. Apple customer service amounts to just about sweet FA.

I've never heard any of my friends having this problem on any of the other Smartphones that are equipped with lithium ion as well. I own an iPhone 6s and had its battery replaced last year in the recall program. Since then I face exactly the same issue. Shutdown in 0 degrees C. Can't use it. I need to use my Xperia in winter times because of that. Ridiculous. No more Apple. I'm done.

I too have had this problem rendering my iPhone 6s unreliable as an emergency back up for 3-4 months of the year and useless as a camera in the snow. I know this isn’t consistent across all iPhone 6s ( comparing with friends in same conditions at the same time). I therefore to to the Aberdeen Apple story where I bought the phone. I was told categorically that there are ultra sophisticated sensors in the phone to shut down and prevent the circuitry damaging itself - the salesman went on to suggest it didn’t happen in later models and that I could cure the problem by buying a later model of i-phone. I considered the explanation to be techno-BS as it was not always unreliable in cold weather and as pointed out was not occurring with other 6s phones. The proposed solution to upgrade is outrageous for a phone that was less than 18 months old. Unless I get a proper response the next phone will not be an Apple.

I consider the battery has deteriorated and Apple are not responding here for fear of the cost of replacing faulty batteries.

Come on Apple either reply with official explanation or offer a fix.

The replacement system is the biggest joke ever. Apple loves to waste your time.

After speaking with someone from apple on the phone and determining my phone needed a new battery I got an appointment to have mine replaced at the "Genius" Bar. When I arrived I was told they would need to order me a battery and I would need to return in 2 weeks once it came in. So after wasting over an hour of my time on my first appointment I get to go there again in 2 weeks and spend another 2 hours.

Way to set expectations Apple!!

So you are 100% sure that replacing the battery will resolve the issue?

You need to meet more people, EVERYONE I know is NOT having the problem, do all the people you know live in the same town?

It helps to read the full sentence and welcome new commenters instead of talking down to them for no particular reason.

I read the sentence which said that EVERYONE you know has the same problem, what did I miss?

And I am not the welcome committee.

Then again EVERYONE I KNOW is not having the problem, regardless of how many winters have passed, so I don't believe the poster, I think that exaggeration may be in play.

Well this didn't happen to me last winter and if this is really a feature I would rather have my phone break from the cold than have it be a useless piece of metal every time I go outside.

How did it go for you? :)
