Almost 3 years since its release iPhone 4, a woman from the USA decided to sue the Apple company demanding 5 million dollars as compensation for the fact that Power button al iPhone 4 it has a manufacturing defect and Apple refused to acknowledge this. In the lawsuit, it is stated that the Power button refuses to lock/unlock the iPhone 4 terminals, in the interconnection cable with the motherboard there is a defect that the Apple company would have refused to recognize.
A Florida woman is seeking more than $5 million from Apple on behalf of thousands of iPhone owners who allegedly bought phones with defective power buttons that would not lock or turn off. In a class action suit filed in San Jose, California, Debra Hilton claims that Apple knew about a defect in a flex cable that controls the on-off button, but chose to stay quiet about it so as to sell more phones.
The Power button problem has been experienced by quite a few Apple customers, discussion forums having threads with hundreds of answers and hundreds of thousands of views, a sign that we are not talking about an isolated defect. Even if the iPhone 4 had a problem and Apple has not acknowledged it until now, it is unlikely that the lawsuit will bring the woman a higher amount than the equivalent for the purchase of another iPhone, even if the lawsuit would collect more dissatisfied Apple customers.
