Swollen iPhone 13 battery found on Chinese devices

There are reports of a battery problem with iPhone 13 devices in China. A user posted online about his iPhone 13’s swollen battery, which poses a security risk. Their phone also experienced sudden shutdowns before the battery visibly deflated.

According to the post, a visit to the Apple store confirmed the battery issue. However, they have encountered difficulty obtaining a replacement battery and say they have discovered a group of other iPhone 13 users in China who have had similar issues.

A post on the Apple Discussion Forum calls on Apple to investigate the matter. It also discussed inconsistencies in Apple’s after-sales service, with some users reportedly receiving a free replacement while others did not. Apple must have a specific plan for similar situations; otherwise users will feel betrayed and biased.

The comments under the post raise additional doubts. Some users point out that third-party chargers may be a contributing factor, while others wonder why batteries seem to swell after just 2.5 years.

For this question, someone can charge a fee for free, are there any characteristics of these people? And please tell me why the phone only lasts 2.5 years, longer than this time, it will be swollen!

It’s unbelievable!!!

Swollen batteries pose a serious risk and should be addressed immediately. If you suspect a battery problem with your iPhone 13 or other device, it’s important to stop using your phone and contact Apple Support.

Apple has not yet commented on the reports, but iPhone 13 users, especially those in China, should be aware of this issue. To minimize risk, it is recommended that only approved chargers be used with your device. While we are in China, there are rumors that Apple is planning to bring Apple TV+ to China.

For users encountering difficulties with Apple after-sales service, it may be helpful to keep a record of all communications with Apple regarding the battery issue. Posting on the Apple discussion forum on Reddit may also be helpful.
