I took my iPhone 5 to the Genius Bar just to see what they'd say about it and they told me that because it has a swelling battery that they'd have to replace the whole thing for $100 with a new iPhone 5. I just wanted to get a sanity check done because my reaction is that there's no way an iPhone 5 is worth $100, new-in-box or not. What do you guys think?
Also, pretty interesting that if your battery catastrophically fails instead of just sort of slowly dies you can ostensibly get a brand new device.
