Another iPhone down...

[tgp]

Try to sell a windows phone used on craigslist.

Yeah, the guy I bought my Windows Phone from on Craigslist would probably agree with you. It was great for me! I legally stole it.

I never had an issue selling mine. Sold both my ativ s phones within a few days of putting them up. Got good money too. Hmmm.

I think it does, but that does not change the fact of shoddy hardware that does not work like it should. I think he has the "workaround" activated. Poor solution to a common problem that could be fixed easily with a properly designed piece of hard ware. I have never had any button break on any other phone I have had. not from normal use anyways, being dropped and broken does not count. his phone is always in a case and he is very careful with it. Just crap hardware.

I'm not a iPhone fan by no means, but in all honesty this is the first time I have ever heard anyone claim that it's "shoddy" .

On my old iPhone 3GS the volume rocker button had to be replaced twice, and the power button three times. Not to mention the crack that appeared at the bottom of the device after a drop onto carpet from around half a metre. iPhones are nowhere near Nokias in terms of build quality.

I've changed the screen of my L520 twice and replaced the up volume button once, and the phone is just over a year now.... Something I never had to do all my life as a BB fan boy... I still believe bb makes the better hardware... Buh I love my L520 though.

the 520 is probably the exception to the rule with nokia, however, at 60 bucks, its disposable. And yes. Blackberry hardware is top notch. I have not used none of the new software but I think they are great devices. The new passport is a no brainer for business people who work regularly with spreadsheets, documents etc.

Can i stop here or do i need to show many phones have power button issues? Here is from our sister forums, galaxy s4, about same time as iphone 5s....http://forums.androidcentral.com/ask-question/399793-s4-power-button-stuck.html

Alright, so it isn't just your beloved iToys having problems lol

I can't help to wonder how are these phones are being used, kids will be kids some times i guess. if there is one thing i cant complain about iphones it would have to be hardware. I have had iphones, Lumias, Htc's and i take all my phones to the gym, many times without a case. I do rarely drop them as i'am not a clumsy person and I believe extra care should be in practice when you invest in a 500-1000 dollar electronic device. I've had all Iphones except the 3gs and the 5s and have never had any hardware issue, one of my closest friend's iphone 5s broke when he droped it, but then again phones are designed to be phones not tennis balls.
