Is that a common issue? I've certainly heard about devices losing battery life and cameras progressively getting worse, but complete death is very uncommon unless you use it without a case and drop it all the time or something.

I still have a working iPhone 5 (no S) with a home button that spins and a slightly broken screen bezel but no other issues.

I have a 4S still running.

At one point I thought it died permanently. But it turned out to only be the screen dimming to much. In bright light it auto adjusted enough to be visible, allowing me to rise the brightness.

I had a 5s die at one point, it got reset to the point where it needed to activate, and couldn’t.
