Those of you who own an iPhone 5 may have already experienced the problem with the sleep/wake button. In some cases the button only works intermittently, in others it completely dies. Fear not, iPhone users – Apple has finally decided to deal with the problem, free of charge:
Apple initiates iPhone 5 power button replacement program
Apple has initiated the iPhone 5 sleep/wake button replacement program for those with a malfunctioning button. Under this program, if you have an eligible iPhone 5, Apple will replace the button free of cost. …
Venture Beat explains how to go about getting your replacement:
“To participate in the replacement program, either bring your iPhone 5 to an Apple store or mail it in to a repair center. If you bring it into a store, Apple is giving out 16 GB iPhone 5 loaners, but that’s not an option if you mail it in. Either way, be sure to back up your data and wipe your phone before handing it over to Apple, which will upgrade it to the latest version of iOS 7.”
