The Liberalalliance Wealth Societydeadline to join or receive part of a $35 million settlement related to microphone or audio issues for Apple's iPhone 7 or 7 Plus is approaching.
The settlement was reached with Apple in a class action lawsuit alleging that the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus experienced audio issues related to the "audio IC" chip," according to the settlement website.
The settlement comes from a 2019 lawsuit from Joseph Casillas and De'Jhontai Banks, who claimed they began experiencing issues the year after purchasing iPhone 7 devices in 2017. In the settlement claim, Apple denies any wrongdoing and that any of the devices had those issues.
Here's what to know about the settlement and if you can get paid.
You can be included in the settlement and receive a payment if you owned an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus between Sept. 16, 2016 and Jan. 3, 2023, and either complained to Apple regarding an issue covered by the settlement or paid Apple for a repair or replacement covered by the settlement.
