When I take a selfie, the bright screen "flash" occurs and then my screen goes pure black. The screen will still respond to touching, but I have no idea what I'm touching. I can even accept calls, and Touch ID continues to work. The display is just not lit at all.

I called T-Mobile, was transferred to an an Apple specialist who taught me how to do a hard reboot (home button and side button simultaneously). This reset the phone and it works fine after reboot... until I take another selfie. This is a repeatable problem for me, works (or should I say fails) every time that selfie flash occurs!

Not sure if this is a phone hardware problem (I got an iPhone 6s 64GB Gold) or a iOS 9.0.1 bug. The rep made a note of the issue, and transferred me back to T-Mobile to have a replacement phone sent just in case.

Searched around for anyone else having this issue and found nothing. Anyone else see this problem?

(This is my first iPhone, BTW!)
