Everything has flaws and that includes Apple products. The new iPhone 6 has been available on the market for less than a month and consumers have already voiced concerns over a few issues. First there was #BendGate which began because numerous users were complaining that the iPhone 6 actually was bending in their pockets. Now it seems that something called #HairGate is picking up serious complaint momentum on Twitter.
Apparently a lot of people have had the same problem: Their hair has gotten caught in the seam between the glass screen and the aluminum back of the iPhone 6, leaving no choice but to rip the trapped hair completely out of their head. Not a fun scenario for someone that is trying to multitask while talking on the phone. It also amounts to a bigger and more widespread problem for Apple. The company confirmed that #BendGate actually only affected nine people when all was said and done. #HairGate is expected to have a far-reaching effect with consumers ultimately returning their phones because this is an aggravation that they don't have to deal with.
Do you have a new iPhone 6? Have you had it rip out your hair while you took a simple phone call? Is this the kind of thing that you would consider a minor annoyance and just deal with? Or is it something that would ultimately prompt you to return your phone for a totally different product? Are you surprised that Apple didn't catch this design snag while iPhone 6 was still in its' developmental phase?
If your phone is due for an upgrade, after hearing about the flaws with the new iPhone 6 would you still get one and potentially become a willing participant in #HairGate? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
