Received replacement iPhone with text missing in rear?

[IllusionEntity]

I received my replacement from apple today via post and it is missing a lot of the text on the rear of the device. Should I return this one also?

Can you post a photo?

Strange. Can't wait for pic.

Double check that. If it's a prototype sel it on eBay and make money otherwise return it.

No longer has fcc labels on the back of iPhones 6S. That's normal

If it's a prototype sell it and earn money.

What do you think is missing?
Looks very normal to me!

Are you serious?

Yeah looks normal.

Textgate.

I'd return it if it bothers you. But check if you've won the chip lottery

And the fact it says iPho with a smudged o and half of the bin missing?

I've never seen that before, and yeah. I would return it.

If it bothers you, return it. We don't need a post for every little nick and dent.

If you're not interested in the thread, don't comment.

Wow, that is definitely not a keeper. Definitely ask for another replacement.

Hopefully the OP has the validation he needs now.

I'd return it! I didnt realize what you meant until I zoomed in. I wouldn't want my phone looking like that. People would think it's a knockoff. If you can, take it to an apple store. If not, get in touch with apple support and show them the pic. It would help if you circled the areas where the wording is missing/smudged. Hope it works out for you!

 

[Spink10]

Yeah looks normal.

I'm blind. Return that thing!

 

[phteven]

Definitely not normal… something funky happening with the Apple logo there as well.

 

[asleep]

Looks like you got an iPho S...

Return it for the full iPhone.

 

[DeltaMac]

Ah, sorry, I also didn't realize what I was looking at....
I though it was just because the phone was pink, and throwing off the lighting in that picture

Is the back as "shadow-y" as your picture shows (ignoring the smudgy text)?
If so, then - no question - get that replaced.

I actually though at first the area in question was blurred out by the OP. I haven't seen anything like that before. Not sure why you wouldn't return it for a replacement.

 

[bufffilm]

Of course you should return it.

Doesn't need a thread to figure that out.
