Understanding iPhone Touch Disease
What Is iPhone Touch Disease?
iPhone Touch Disease, also known as “Touch IC Chip Failure,” is a common issue affecting iPhone 6 Plus devices. It is characterized by a gradual loss of touch functionality, often starting with the top of the screen and progressing downwards. This issue is caused by a manufacturing defect in the phone’s logic board.
