After Apple announced it wouldoffer customersreplacement battery for the iPhone 6S batch that randomly shuts off , the company now knows why the problem go on : atmosphere . Specifically , ambient air a all important stamp battery component part was expose to for too long .

In apress release , the company explained that in September and October 2015 , “ a small identification number of iPhone 6S devices … hold in a shelling component that was scupper to control ambient zephyr longer than it should have been before being assembled into barrage pack . ”

“ As a result , these batteries degrade faster than a normal assault and battery and cause unexpected closure to come about . It ’s important to mention , this is not a prophylactic topic , ” Apple said .

An significant example Apple just learned : do n’t allow the batteries alfresco for too long .

The company is offering detached stamp battery replacements . you could check to see if you qualifyhere . My earpiece has been randomly shutting down and I qualify for a free battery , today I went to the Genius Bar to get a substitution . The demand for new batteries is large enough for them to be on backorder — I should get mine in a week or two — so I ’m wonder what Apple ’s definition of a “ small amount ” is .

My mother is also waiting on a new battery for her 6S , and noted , “ What is really rum though is that I had a assault and battery problem with my iPhone 5 . It turned out it was also eligible for a liberal replacement assault and battery . I suspect many iPhones have big job that Apple does n’t acknowledge . ”

Maybe Apple just figured it out — it ’s aviation . Maybe it ’s deeper . Only time will separate .
