Apple Launches Multi-Touch Repair Program for iPhone 6 Plus

iPhone 6 Plus

iPhone 6 Plus Apple has launched a repair program for iPhone 6 Plus devices that suffer a flickering display or Multi-Touch issues. The program’s description specifies devices that experience these troubles “after being dropped multiple times on a hard surface and then incurring further stress on the device.”

“If your iPhone 6 Plus is exhibiting the symptoms noted above, is in working order, and the screen is not cracked or broken, Apple will repair your device for a service price of $149,” Apple said.

Nonetheless, it’s always good for device owners when Apple opens up a repair program.
