About the iPhone 6
The iPhone 6 (models A1549, A1586, A1589) completely transformed Apple's smartphone design when it launched in September 2014. The jump from 4 inches to a 4.7-inch Retina HD display was a massive leap, and the new rounded aluminium body felt like a different product entirely compared to the flat-edged iPhone 5S. Under the hood sat the A8 chip with the M8 motion coprocessor, and it brought NFC to the iPhone for the first time, enabling Apple Pay. The 8MP camera gained Focus Pixels for faster autofocus, and it supported significantly faster LTE speeds. It went on to become the best-selling iPhone of its era, and we still fix plenty of them at our Dundee repair shop on Perth Road.
Even in 2026, we see a steady stream of iPhone 6 repairs at our West End workshop. The phone's age means the problems are predictable but very fixable, cracked screens from years of pocket drops, batteries that barely last a couple of hours, worn-out home buttons where Touch ID has packed in, and Lightning ports corroded from years of charging. Some iPhone 6 units also develop touch disease, where failing solder joints on the touch IC cause an unresponsive display or a flickering grey bar at the top of the screen. If you have got an A1549 or A1586 with any of these issues, our technicians have over 20 years' combined experience and have seen every fault this phone can throw at them.
Touch disease, that flickering grey bar at the top of the screen, is a known defect on the iPhone 6 caused by flexing of the logic board. We can diagnose it properly at our Perth Road workshop and advise on your best options.
The iPhone 6 came in three variants: A1549 for North America (both GSM and CDMA sub-models), A1586 for the international market covering most of Europe and Asia, and A1589 which was a China Mobile-specific model. All three use the same screen, battery, and internal components, making parts sourcing straightforward.

What is touch disease on the iPhone 6 and can you fix it?
Touch disease causes a grey flickering bar at the top of the screen and makes the touchscreen unresponsive. It is caused by solder joints failing on the touch IC chip due to the phone flexing over time. It requires a board-level repair - gee'z a call and we'll discuss your options.
How much does an iPhone 6 battery replacement cost in Dundee?
iPhone 6 battery swaps are very affordable. The repair takes about 20 minutes and makes a huge difference to a phone that is draining by lunchtime. Pop into our Perth Road shop or give us a ring for the current price.
Can you fix an iPhone 6 home button that's stopped working?
Aye, we can replace the home button assembly. Bear in mind that Touch ID is hardware-paired to the original button, so a replacement will work for pressing but won't do fingerprint unlock. We'll explain everything before we start.
Is it worth repairing an iPhone 6 in 2026?
The iPhone 6 tops out at iOS 12 and most modern apps have dropped support. But for calls, texts, music, and basic use it still does the job. A cheap screen or battery repair is pennies compared to a new phone. We'll give you honest advice at our Dundee shop.
My iPhone 6 keeps restarting randomly - can you diagnose it?
Random restarts usually point to a failing battery or a software issue. Bring it to our Perth Road workshop and we'll run a diagnostic assessment. If it is the battery, we can swap it out the same day. Nae fix, nae fee on the diagnosis.
Can you replace the charging port on an iPhone 6?
Definitely. After years of daily charging the Lightning port wears out, gets loose, or fills up with compressed lint. We replace the full dock connector assembly which also sorts out any microphone issues on that flex cable. Usually done in about 40 minutes.
Do you fix iPhone 6 camera problems in Dundee?
Aye, rear camera replacements and camera lens repairs are common iPhone 6 fixes. If your photos are blurry, the camera won't focus, or the lens is cracked, drap it into our Perth Road workshop and we'll take a look.
