Apple claimed only few people in the world reported bendgate problem last year, do you believe that too?:rolleyes:
They said that early on when the first couple of reports came out. I can easily believe it was true at that time, just as I can believe that most 6 owners did not bend their phones over the last year, and in fact the 6 is no more bendable than most of its contemporaries, as numerous other tests have shown.

As for "chip gate" I know first hand that's a nonsense since I have a 6s with a Samsung chip and have experienced nothing less than stellar battery life and performance over the past month. To stretch your analogy I have tried my hardest to "bend" this phone through hard usage, looking for overheating or unsatisfactory battery life and found it exemplary - I can't fault it.

So in short, you can take all your weirdly obsessive and continuing attempts to make this a thing (especially odd since as I understand it you have no intention of ever owning an iPhone) and take a running jump.
 
My own experience this year:
1) 6s+ 128GB SG - TSMC (bought on Oct 9th - second wave launch) - muffled sound from loudspeaker;
2) 6s+ 128GB SG - Samsung (replaced the one above at the retailer on Oct 27th with a new sealed unit) - rich loudspeaker sound, but had a dead pixel middle-left side of display;
3) 6s+ 128GB SG - Samsung (replaced one last time at the retailer on Oct 28th with a new sealed unit) - rich loudspeaker sound - fine display.
Bottom line: I won't give another shot to return the last one because at the time being I don't have any solid reason.

Is this about a Samsung phone?
 
Oh god............................ I thought it had ended..........He's back.

Grab's popcorn.

Have fun guys I'm sitting this one out and enjoying it from the outside for a change.

You could not accept you were completely wrong about two A9 have different logic board? ha ha

My link video shows 6s+ isamsung chip has chipgate problem not 6s, do you even read before claim something?

apple has fixed bendgate problem by using stronger material and thicker, do you even know what 6s has changed from 6?

Your link is of zero interest to me, I read it and discarded it as nonsense like pretty much everyone else you're trying to preach to. As a 6S owner I can be objective about the claims you're making about the Plus; I still think they're BS.

I almost wish apple had made the 6S out of weaker aluminium rather than give people like you something to latch on to as "proof" of "bendgate". Has it occurred to you that with 3D Touch encouraging people to press on their phones with deliberate force, they might have figured it was a good idea to strengthen the frame regardless of whatever "gate" was being trumpeted a year ago?

You're honestly wasting your time. I wouldn't even bother.

It's just you made reference to Samsung, replacing the phone. So i was not understanding what brand of phone it was.
It was about iP6s+ all the time... The references made were about the A9 chips built into the three iP6s+ units I got my hands on the last 3 weeks.
 
To me the major item everyone need to watch for is a charger that fails to quit charging their phone battery and causing the battery to swell or burst into a fire.
I had this happen with a Samsung charger used on a Samsung tablet and phone,no fire but two ruined batteries and a ruined tablet.
So far i have not read of an Apple product having this type problem with their chargers,and I leave my two iPad on charge at home all the time, and have done this for around three years.

I think the lightning connectors limit the current through the cable when the phone is fully charged so it's just enough to maintain the device at full battery.

I kept laughing because cbrand493 was completely wrong and he never replied about how he was so wrong after I pointed that out ha ha

Now that's a good thing apple is doing.
I know Surefire has a fuse in their 123 Lithium flashlight batteries,if they over charged the fuse stops it. I recall Dell had problems with lithium batteries in their early notebook computers.

Don't quote me on that I'm not 100% sure but I remember something along that lines when they announced the Lightning charger.

Just what did you remember and i am not holding you to anything,i just want to know what you think was said in regards to the lighting chargers.

I can't remember exactly but it was something along the lines of that it basically stops charging the battery once it's full and never lets it overcharge. Then again I could have gotten that confused with something else and be completely speaking out my behind, but like has been said, I also leave my devices plugged in overnight and can be "charging" on 100% battery for hours and have never had a single problem.

Since i have left my iPad on the Apple chargers for years,and have never had an over charge Apple has a good smart charger i can depend on.
Also i have just charged my iPhone6 short charges to get from around 80% to 100%, and have had not problems i feel i also can trust the Apple chargers with my iPhone6. and thank you for your quick reply.

I don't think it's controlled by the actual charger that you plug into the socket but either the phone controls it or the lighting cable itself controls it (hence why you should always use Apple or Made for IPhone cables!)

That is just what I feel is the right way to go,use the Apple iPhone charger not any other brand or type charger.
What ever Apple is using to control the charging rate and how long or how much it chargers seems to be working well.
