Apple sued over iPhone 6 "Touch Disease" hardware problems
Apple sued over iPhone 6 "Touch Disease" hardware problems
Last week, it was reported that a growing number of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users were finding their smartphones had fallen victim to the so-called "Touch Disease." Apple still hasn't officially acknowledged the hardware issue, leading to some owners filing a proposed class action lawsuit against the company.The problem is a result of the phones' bendability, which causes the touch controller chip's soldering to crack eventually and start to lose contact with the board; a problem that's made worse through dropping and rough handling.As this happens, a flickering gray bar appears at the top of the iPhone and the screen starts becoming unresponsive, up to the point where it no longer registers touch.
