Many
iPhone X uses are facing issue with screen always turned on issue. iPhone X
screen stays always on, and never goes to sleep. This is causing huge
unnecessary battery drain. The same screen reaminin on is reported with iPhone
8 as well. iPhone X/8 screen will not turn off automatically when not being
used unless right hand button is pressed.
While
the user touch the screen to wake but don’t unlock it, the screen simply sits
there ON and never turns off. Screen won’t turn off unless I press the
sleep/wake button. Some users say that issue goes away after a reboot but comes
back after day or two.
There
are no updates from Apple regarding the issue, but some user after replacing
their iPhone X did not face issue again on new device but some of them faced
same issue on replaced device which is very strange.
