Hopefully Apple take a look at this thread because I don’t think it’s even on their radar/scope at the moment as the senior tech I’m dealing with hasn’t had any reports of this issue nor has any apple rep taken the action to reply to this thread..
This, as I mentioned before probably has to do with the fact that most customers moving from a 4/5/6/7 iPhone did not have stereo speakers to begin with therefore their not going to miss something they never had.
I totally understand if it is a software issue BUT come on Apple, you should have a rock solid OS update installed and thoroughly tested before selling your new models, this is the most expensive smart phone available on the market, it’s shameful to have these things happen and also have the audacity to state a “repair” (if it is hardware related) instead of brand new, it’s like purchasing a brand new car from a dealership only to drive out and have an engine problem and be told it needs a engine replacement, now that’s not brand new is it? That’s a refurb job and I didn’t pay £1250 for a refurb. It just doesn’t feel right.
