Should I go to Apple for a replacement?
I bought my iPhone 4S in 2011 and never had a problem with it. In February of this year it got lost and I had to order a replacement through a third party insurance company (which I pay a monthly fee for, but they charge deductibles). The replacement turned out to be in not-so-great condition, and here I'm a few months later with a phone that turned off by itself and refuses to turn back on. It was very warm for a couple hours after turning off, and no amount of resetting or plugging in would get the apple logo to show up at all.
My question is-should I go to the Apple store with my problem? I've heard that they often replace people's broken phones for free, even if their official policy doesn't imply that they will. A friend of mine got a free replacement from Apple even though her phone had obvious water damage. I've heard similar stories but I don't know if their phones were newer than mine or anything like that. Is it true that there's a chance they'll replace it? If not, what would the fee be? Should I just go through Verizon and pay my deductible?
Your phone is 2 years old so I doubt they would replace it, thats usually if it was recently bought and something happened.

- Replacement Pending iPhone. Replacement phone or fix? My iphone is being repaired and on the apple service page it says 'iPhone replacement pending' and below it says repair complete… I was wondering if this meant that my phone has been repaired or if Apple are sending a replacement iphone different than the original.
