Deadline Nears for Apple's $35 Million iPhone 7 Settlement

iPhone 7 and 7 Plus users have until June 3 to file claims for compensation related to audio issues.

  • Eligible users can receive between $50 and $349 depending on repair costs and complaint records.
  • The settlement addresses audio defects linked to the 'audio IC' chip in iPhone 7 models.
  • Apple denies any wrongdoing but agreed to the settlement in response to a 2019 class action lawsuit.
  • The lawsuit was initiated by two plaintiffs who experienced audio issues a year after purchasing their devices.
  • Compensation is available only to U.S. residents who owned an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus between September 2016 and January 2023.
