How to Diagnose iPhone Hardware Problems
Before buying a new phone, determine if your issue is truly broken hardware.
Self-Diagnosis Tools:
- Microphone/Speakers: Record a voice memo and play it back.
- Sensors: Make a call and cover the top of the phone. The screen should go black (Proximity Sensor).
- Physical Buttons: Ensure they click and register immediately.
- Touch ID/Face ID: Try resetting and setting them up again. Failure usually means hardware damage.
🤔 Comprehensive Check:
For a full report, use Dr.Fone - Phone Verification (part of the toolkit) to generate a detailed report on your device's hardware status, including screen, battery, and sensor health.
