Seen on field, simulated · caught at field, test
Conditions Hand soldering with flux-core wire next to an open potentiometer housing; worse after months of use Yield impact 1.2% InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Medium confidence.Evidence: src:reviews, src:repair-guide field return share attributed to drift in the review sample Root cause Flux migrates into the carbon track and changes wiper resistance InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Medium confidence.Evidence: src:ct-run-1, src:repair-guide proposed design-change Replace soldered pins with an FPC connector on the stick module

Battery connector unseats after a 1.2 m drop Public iss:battery-unseat connector-unseat fpc-connector battery connector-mate
Seen on simulated, dvt · caught at reliability-test
Conditions Tight z-height over the connector; the top shell rib lands 0.3 mm above it Yield impact 0.9% InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Low confidence.Evidence: src:ct-run-1 drop-test fallout in the simulated build Root cause No preload on the connector and no seat check at mating InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Medium confidence.Evidence: src:ct-run-1 proposed fixture-change Closing fixture presses the connector while the shell closes

Conditions Cavity 2 of the top-shell tool; worse in the first hour after a mould start Yield impact 1.7% InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Low confidence.Evidence: src:caliper-run-1 Root cause Uneven cooling bows the shoulder wall outward on cavity 2 InferredEngineering judgement, not measured.

RF power low when the LRA sits against the antenna keep-out Public iss:rf-detune rf-detune antenna motor-haptic connector-mate
Seen on simulated · caught at test
Conditions The LRA pocket allows 2 mm of play toward the antenna Yield impact 0.6% InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Low confidence.Evidence: src:eol-sample
Root cause Metal LRA can within 5 mm of the chip antenna detunes it InferredEngineering judgement, not measured. Medium confidence.No evidence listed. proposed design-change Add a rib so the LRA can't move toward the antenna
