Again,
I never said there wasn't hope for Apple, nor did I say that what I did was
a smart move. Honestly, I feel pretty stupid!

Accessibility!
I’m not sure why there wouldn’t be hope for Apple, this is pretty common
behavior although you’d have to be pretty odd to be ripping off parts of the
tray that’s already installed. I can sort of understand how this might
happen though as sometimes the components feel different than you might
imagine but in general, if I don’t know what it is I don’t rip it off.;)

Guys, once again, Apple has done it! They have exceeded my expectations
by far! I'm very very impressed!
So, here's the medium length version of the Sauga.
I have two iPhones, a 7+, and a 6S.
What I wanted to do was, I wanted to take the sim cards, and reverse
them. So the 6S goes in the 7+, the 7+ goes in the 6S. Basically a phone
number swap.
What happened was, for some reason, I don't know if the sim tray was
crooked or what, but it wasn't seating flushed with the bezil of the
phone. So, I slid the tray out all the way into my hand, and really
examined the tray closely with no sim lying in it. What I noticed was,
on the end opisit from what goes first slidden into the phone, there was
this really el cheapo dinky dank little thing that felt like the
protective plastic thin film that would go over the screen of a phone
during packaging to protect it. The best way I can describe it is, it
felt like really really really thin filmy wax paper, or maybe like
really thin cellophan. I was like, what on earth? um, why would
cellophane be on the tray down inside the sim slot stuck to the tray?
Don't tell me at Best buy, they didn't see this and forgot to remove
it. Well, no worries. Well? yeah, worries! Oopsy doodles, Me bwoke it
weel good! Basically, thinking that was
cellophane, what did little Crissy dumb nut do? You guessed it! Yank? I
tore the thing right off. I'm like it's just
cellophane, so who cares!
Well? I later found out, so guys with iPhone 7 and 7 pluses, beware of
this, that's not actually
cellophane! Don't pull it off, whatever the heck you do! That film is a
very thin rubbery bumpber/gasket which basically helps the sim card tray
to slide in totally aligned straight/flat. If you tear it off, you just
rendered that sim tray utterly useless.
So long story short, I called Apple Accessibility and told them I was
having issues. Through describing to them what I did, and what
initially happened before doing so, and what happened now that I did! do
so, they were able to conclude what I'd done, and explained to me about
that little rubber piece. They took my feedback and sent to engineers
regarding this, as to a blind person, that's really kind a a bad way to
make that sim tray. I mean, the tray from my 6S doesn't have one of
those rubber pieces, and it fits both my phones perfectly! So, why add
that bumper? Don't fix it if it ain't a problem to start with. I liked
it better on the 6S, 6S+, 6, and 6S, how there are! no pieces like that
on the tray. It just is what it is, a tray.
They said I'm by far not the first person's who's done this to their
7/7+ tray, and were very very willing to own up to it being their falt
for confusing design, especially if you can't visually see what it is
you're pulling to know what it isn't. They were so sorry for this, that
they agreed even to send me out not 1, but two! 6S doors, and! two 7+
doors. so I'd have some spares. They're not even charging me a penny
either!
To me, that really shows that they get it. They really do understand how
this potentially is a bigtime problem that needs to be dealt with in
their making assemblyline.
Go Apple!
Chris.
