jimboy2 Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Apple have finally admitted to iPhone 5 battery issues. Also I didn't know this but you can have you sleep/wake button replaced if faulty. Check out these links and add your serial number to see if your one of the lucky winners https://ssl.apple.com/support/iphone5-battery/ 1 Quote
glrnet Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Nice one, hasn't affected me but I know those who have had problems Quote
jimboy2 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Posted August 24, 2014 Yeah it has affected my girlfriend. But she had already had a replacement at Apple for a new battery at a cost of 50 quid. Hopefully she can get a refund for that now Quote
Jonny Z Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Thanks for that, mine is eligible for battery replacement Quote
14N Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 My iPhone 4S has had appalling battery life ever since 'upgrading' to iOS7. I'm lucky if a full charge lasts a day. I need to ensure there's more than 40% battery life before I go to bed, otherwise chances are the phone will die while I'm asleep and my alarm won't go off (as I use it as my alarm clock). The 4S isn't eligible for the battery replacement though. Thanks Apple. Quote
4RE Leather Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Thanks for the info. I am having issues finding a page that gives me the location of my nearest store. All I get is USA. Quote

twobears Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 I have started to think my 5s is a bit lacking in battery life Quote

Neilp Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 So glad I dont use my Iphone4s and upgraded to the lumia. Best decision I made Which has what to do with a thread about the iPhone 5? I also have a lumia as a work phone and its absolute pants. Just to balance this out Quote
skahigh Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 Thanks for posting this, I've had problems with my phone randomly switching off for over a year (seemingly battery life related). Turns out I have an eligible handset. Pleased I can get it sorted but annoyed it's taken apple so long! Quote

Hopefully can get a refund on that now! Quote
