      AnonD-134749, 26 Apr 2014people spend 1000$ on a not so well MADE phone lol$1000.00 for an iPhone?

      Maybe in YOUR country. Not here in the Good ol' USA.

      If the biggest thing I have to worry about on my mobile becoming defective is the power button & replaced free of charge, mind you. I'll take something like a tiny button any day.

        [deleted post]I wasn't being sarcastic... It's genius marketing and it works for them very well. I can't think of many companies that could pull that attitude off.
        And no my "anonymous" friend I do not care about critisizing anyone. If I like something or a product I will support it, if not I will "critisize" it but always with a "personal" valid reason. From whatever company it comes from.
        Keep that in mind next time you just make assumptions about someone. It won't work well for you in life.

        P.S: Sorry wrong reply button. This was going for the "anonymous" that replyed to my earlier comment.

          What's the point in highlighting the fact that apple will replace them free of cost. Of course they will.. its the manufacturing defect. Every company do so. After 10 month of usage i got my s4 screen changed. All new panel. Phone looks new. And they even changed the charging port without any cost. They said charging port might trouble me after few time but then there will be no warranty. So they changed in advance. It's their policy and every firm has so.

              During this replacement they will put it on the right side as it should be.

                Wow, Thanks Apple just in time to get some good press ahead of the iphone 6 launch. Despite having known about the problem for about 18 months. You bunch of heros!

                  AnonD-53326, 26 Apr 2014I like how apple deal with this kind of things. They don't ... moreSo, to make you happy, you and the PR department to write out an apology. Something tells me you would still find some other reason to throw out criticism.

                    I like how apple deal with this kind of things. They don't ask sorry for any inconvinience they make to the users and they make it sound like they are very generous for the free replacement. iPhone owners will even say thank you.
                    Just brilliant :)
