Does anyone have the same issue I am having with my iPhone 6? Am I really unlucky when it comes to iPhones, because my old replacement iPhone 4's power button broken after 5 months and when I first got my iPhone 6 on launch day it had a dead pixel. The first thing I did was go to the Apple Store to speak to a genius. The genius instantly saw the dead pixel and replaced it for me. The new one I got started to clip my hair. I only noticed this when I got a hair cut because I cut my hair really short. Am I the only one having this issue or do other people have the same issue? Should I go back to the Apple Store and ask for a new one?
Got a tip for us?

iPhone 6 hair clipping?

It hasn't pulled any of my hair out yet but when I'm walking and talking on the phone, every subtle movement hurts because of it pulling my hair. Are you going to get it replaced?
I have stubble and just tried this, put my phone around my face and chin, no idea what the hell are you guys talking about!! You must have some sort of magnetized hair or something!!
I thought I was the only one. Rips my facial hair out and right after a haircut it will pull my hair out.
No hair clipping here (my hair is quite short), but I often find small textile fibers from the interior of my pocket trapped in that corner. Somehow it seems to suck them in.
I've got a beard and never had the hair pulled by my 6+. Maybe it depends how thick your hair is? Mine is thick.
Agreed. I regularly pluck the odd beard hair as a (bad?) habit.
My first 6 pulled the hair out of my face ALL the time and it hurt like hell 
. I exchanged my phone for an unrelated issue, and the new one is much better. The problem is real, it just depends on how well your hair texture matches up to the tiny variations in the space between the screen and housing.

I thought I was the only one that had noticed this - I used to like rubbing the edge of the 5s on my face but when I do it with my 6+ it rips my facial hair out!
