5s warped from heat..

Anonymous
Not applicable
Had my 5s for around 6 weeks, numerous problems first one I have noticed the back of my phone getting extremely hot wether it's been used or not seems totally random. Now on the right side It seems to of bent/ warped which I can only imagine is due to the heat, I have heard a few friends with the same problem and can only think this is the only answer, anyone with similar issues? Never dropped it, not a scratch and never keep it in pockets.
Thanks

I use the 5s with no such issue.

Some have said the 5s is not strong in signal as previous iPhones but with mine it's been fine.

I'd go with an Apple genius appointment.

They'll run a diagnostic and if it's at fault you'll walk out with another b

Make an iCloud / iTunes back up before you go.

Just wanted to know if it was a common problem, another issue is lack of signal since upgrading from the 4s used to get good signal and 3G now hardly get anything! Seems like it's just one thing after another wish I kept my 4s!
Shame the apple shops are so wide spread I hope the hour journey is worth it that is my only worry. Thanks for your advice guys!
