iPhone 5s battery life issue acknowledged by Apple to be affecting few units

 

News:  Apple's new iPhone 5s is courting controversy again, after the company acknowledged that some units of the phone have a manufacturing defect that is leading to the battery draining faster.

The Cupertino giant told the New York Times that a small number of iPhone 5s units have a manufacturing defect which is causing the issue, and that the company will replace these defective units.

"We recently discovered a manufacturing issue affecting a very limited number of iPhone 5s devices that could cause the battery to take longer to charge or result in reduced battery life," Teresa Brewer, an Apple spokeswoman. "We are reaching out to customers with affected phones and will provide them with a replacement phone." 

Apple has not specified the number of units affected by the issue or the particular batch that's affected.
