Is my iTouch screwed?

[i'maveryneatMonster.']

I got a new iPod touch 2 months ago and it was working fine, until the lock button started being shit.

I'd leave it locked and then out of nowhere, a few minutes later, the screen would display the buttons to turn it off even if I didn't hold the lock button. Now, the lock button won't work, the turn off thing keeps appearing and it only works when I want to turn it on.

 

Is this a common problem with iPod touch? :/

 

And no, unlike most people here, I never dropped it or fell into water.

It is screwed, by the common fault of Apple making products which don't last :P

 

Take it back to the shop and get a repair under warranty

Wait, so it's common .__. ?

My last iPod was so good <3 it was a 32 GB iPod video, loved it and worked fine for until 3 months ago that it finally died cos it was ridiculous if it lasted longer.

I even remember that the guys at the store told me that iPod touch is having too many issues when I got my other iPod fixed cos the earphones plug was failing.
