I'm living in a place where there are only Apple Resellers and no Apple stores. I am getting an iPhone 6S and I wonder if anyone could tell me the common defects because once I leave the store, and the iPhone have any defects, I would have to send it to repair and receive a refurbished unit..
So I hope I can check for the common faulty before making the purchase.
Thanks!
 
I've heard of a few reports of an overheating phone, though this isn't something you'll likely reproduce in a store. I've also heard of a pressure point issue behind the lcd but I think that's the 6s plus only (the thread is lengthy and constantly bumped, so you could definitely have a read).

Otherwise I've truthfully not read anything and I'm spending way too much time here as of late.

Give the phone a once over, make sure it turns on, the screen lights up, touch works. That's about it. There are no common defects. I guarantee that if you go looking for an excuse to replace the phone, you'll find something. Don't go looking too hard.

Definitely. Never had a perfect phone. Ever.
