Hi guys,
My iPhone 6 was making a really cheap noise/rattle when vibrating, as if the vibration motor was faulty or kind of "loose" within the case. It could also be that the screen was not firmly attached to the case (don't really know). If you would hold the left bottom part of the phone (where the vibration motor is located) the rattle would shut off, and it would vibrate "normally".
I found a video on Youtube of a guy having the exact same problem as me:click here to see the video
I gave my phone to a relative for him to take it to an Apple Store (since I don't live in the USA) and he did receive a replacement unit right after inspection. Waiting for the new iPhone to arrive, will update this post as soon as I get it back.
Just thought to let you guys know that it IS a hardware fault and if you experience this, do not hessitate and take it to an Apple store!
** UPDATE: Got the replacement back, working like a charm. No issues whatsoever.
