Hairgate: The latest social media craze over the iPhone 6

[Larry-G]

Apple was probably more than happy to close the book on September, following a disastrous month involving a massive celebrity photo leak attributed to iCloud, Bendgate iPhone 6 bending controversy, iOS 8.0.1 breaking everyone’s iPhones, a bug that deletes all iWork documents and a seemingly endless barrage of other issues. (At the same time, they also sold a record-breaking number of iPhones).Just when you thought that the problems might be over for Apple, it appears that at least some of the social media storm has carried over into October. A new trending topic called Hairgate, sometimes referred to as Beardgate, has surfaced on Twitter this week based on the premise that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus can trap your hair or beard when making a call.

Hairgate appears to be largely another non-issue that is simply the latest joke surrounding the iPhone 6 on social networks, but some users do report the seam between the front bezel and aluminum back of the iPhone 6 causing their hair to get yanked out.

Apple declined to comment.

Wow, people with no lives moaning about their overpriced piece of crap. Just get an android phone for half the price and enjoy a better quality and faster device that isn't forcing you to only buy things from 1 company.

Never liked iPhone. Just shows that there not getting any better for all the money they cost and the daft people out there that will pay that money for an idiot phone. I will stick to my HTC One M8

Samsung S3 for me never had a problem, still have my S2 as a back up but it's just collecting dust in it's box as my S3 is working fine
my grandson keeps telling me to get a iPhone 5s but I would rather spend the £400 on my PC, so a i7 4790k & MSI Gaming 7 motherboard looks like my next purchase and keep my S3 :fart2:

I bought a spare higher capacity Battery for my S3 and use the original as a spare just checked it and it's still got 90% charge in it since xmas, so I may as well charge it back up to 100% and leave it till I need it
I forgot that I had 2 spares and the other one the Original is FLAT and the one with 90% in it is not a Samsung Battery well you live and learn

Hi there,
Now a days many new brands of Phones in the markets but some one is very reliable and have a finest features which is Nokia,Samsung,HTC, these are most demanding brands but my first preference goes to Nokia I phones because that is beautiful and incredible set & also have a very highest features that,s why no one compete with it,i know Samsung & HTC sets also very demanded & having a wonderful features but not like I phones especially I phone 6 is marvelous set it has lot of space to absolve the memory :
