iPhone 7 Owners Reap $200 Payouts in Long-Running 'Loop Disease' Settlement
Former iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus owners are now receiving settlement payments as a result of a class action lawsuit over the 'Loop Disease' issue, which affected audio quality on these devices. The payouts range from approximately $200 to $350 per claim, with higher amounts given to those who paid for repairs related to the fault. The total settlement fund is $35 million, though much of this will go to the attorneys involved. Apple denied any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the case. The deadline for joining the class action was last summer.
