It is not just the iPhone 8 Plus that has been reported to have its display split from the rest of the chassis. The battery swollen issues have also branched out to the iPhone 8, with the first reported incident taking place in the U.S. Apple has said that it is working to come to a conclusion pertaining to these issues but it appears that the company’s investigation must be more expeditious than this.

According to the Best Buy employee, the device in question was the iPhone 8 and had been suffering from the same swollen battery issues that the iPhone 8 Plus were afflicted with. According to the employee, the model had been brought in for repairs, but it is interesting to note that why the device was not taken to an official Apple retail outlet where a helpful representative would be better able to provide after-sales service to the owner.
