Common iPhone XR issues we check at inspection
- Screen scratches and micro-abrasions. The glass front, while durable, is prone to surface scratches from everyday use with keys or other objects in pockets or bags.
- Battery health degradation. The 2942mAh battery naturally degrades over time, leading to reduced maximum capacity and shorter battery life. Listings often mention 'Battery Health X%' or 'Needs Battery Replacement'.
- Cosmetic damage to aluminum frame. The 7000 series aluminum frame can show dents, scuffs, and scratches, especially around the edges and corners, from drops or impacts.
- Face ID malfunctions. The TrueDepth camera system responsible for Face ID can be damaged by drops or water ingress, leading to 'Face ID is disabled' errors.
- Cracked rear glass. While durable, the glass back can crack or shatter from drops, often requiring a costly repair.
- Water damage indicators triggered. Despite the IP67 rating, prolonged or deep submersion can lead to internal corrosion or component failure, often indicated by internal liquid contact indicators.
