This is real. A friend of mine has this issue after updating her 6s. It persists and Apple (Germany) support repeatedly claims there is no problem.

P.S.:
On that note: Apple support in Germany is severely lacking, compared to the US.
I had a display issue with my brand new (company support contract covered) MBP's screen in 2014. the left 25% of it went into becoming colorful pixel stripes.
I was on a business trip in CA when it happened. The Apple store in Carlsbad, CA, was happy to replace the screen for free. But it would take two weeks.
As I had to fly back to Berlin, Germany, a week later, I booked an appointment in the Apple flagship store on Ku'damm there instead (2 weeks waiting time!).
I was 5mins late (finding a place to park there is difficult). They told me my appointment had ceased and I needed to book another one. I complained but no avail. So I did book another.
Another two weeks later I finally could show them my screen.
They told me I had caused this and I needed to buy a new screen.
Oh yeah, they were arrogant too.
If there's something we still haven't figured out in Europe (vs the US) it's great customer service.
