as the tittle says my iPhone 6 plus came with the wrong adapter and this was purchased here in USA I may have the worst luck when it comes to new devices it also has a BIG HUGE black pixel by the signal bars :(

I made a genius bar reservation for tomorrow but my question is can I just walk in today and show them the problems since I cant even charge my phone properly ?

Probably not, you need that reservation, especially since your store is probably still crowded. You can always try. You can also call apple support and they can swap it out by mail. You'll mail the other one back in a prepaid package...same one they will ship the first one out in.

I find it funny that the phone is tied to Tmobile correctly, but the adapter is not for the states. The model would make sense, but this is really weird. Unlocked phone, perhaps?

you were right I went yesterday and they didn't have a lot of people but they won't swap my phone without a reservation all they did is give me a regular adapter so that was cool but I have to drive 16 miles again today to get to the apple store :(

What's the model number listed in settings?

MGC52LL/A

I am not sure because it doesn't say t-mobile on the box but the sim card in the phone was t-mobile

Or you could just move to Europe;)

yeah that would be nice ;)

I would have contacted apple in regards to that.

I didn't purchased the phone myself that's why I didn't contact them
