In September and October of 2015, Apple found a small number of iPhone6s that has battery component that was exposed to controlled ambient air longer than it should have been before being assembled into battery packs.

Tony Fadell, one of the Apple executives and the so-called father of the iPod confirmed the problem is not limited to the iPhone 6S only, iPhone6S Plus does have the same problem.
Business Insiders confirmed that it was unclear that the battery caused by its recent iOS 10.1.1.
