Six phones? What have been the issues with each?

No, I have 6 on my 2 accounts.

All the phones, EXCEPT MINE were perfect... no issues.

I have had to replace mine 2x, so I'm personally on my 3rd. The other 5 have had no issues at all, go figure.

All different serials too.

My first phone wouldn't hold a charge past 2-3 hours.

My second phone constantly overheated and gave the warning screen.

3rd has been fine thus far.

My second and 3rd were same serial, but my first was different.

3 of my 6 now have the same serial, the other 3 are diff... so I really think it's a crapshoot if your phone works good or not.

I'm on my second phone. My original had a couple of dead pixels.

I like refurbished iPhones better than brand new. This is because the refurbs are QA'd in California, whereas the new ones are checked in China..if at all.

I bought my iPhone 3G at Best Buy and swapped it out at Apple 3 times. Only the last time did they give me a hard time.

So far so good on my iPhone 4. This thread is the first ive heard of dead pixels!

I love my ip4, and unless the white is out sometime in july i'm keeping the one I have for sure, if the white comes out IN JULY then I'll be returning mine and buying the white.

Good phone though, every tech device has some issues, I just had 2 sour apples is all.
