Common iPhone 11 Pro Max issues we check at inspection

  • Screen burn-in on OLED display. Ghost images from status bar, navigation buttons, or keyboard visible on OLED panels after extended use. The iPhone 11 Pro Max uses an OLED display, making it susceptible.
  • Battery degradation below 80% health. Original battery showing <80% maximum capacity after 2+ years of use. This is a common wear item for all lithium-ion batteries.
  • Face ID not working. The TrueDepth camera system responsible for Face ID can fail due to hardware issues or damage.
  • Cracked screen or back glass. The Gorilla Glass front and back are prone to cracking from drops. Stainless steel frame offers some protection but edges can still be damaged.
  • Water damage indicators tripped. Despite IP68 rating, liquid contact can cause internal corrosion or component failure.
  • Charging port issues (lint, damage). The Lightning port can become clogged with debris or damaged, leading to charging or connectivity problems.
