Updated my Flip 6 on Verizon to UI 7 and since updating the screen will randomly (most of the time) not turn on the screen and unlock. It does appear to be more likely to work when plugged into a charger.  The phone is working though as I'm able to answer the phone with my bluetooth connected watch and talk even while the screen is black. 

I'd warn against updating but it appears based on search that they've pulled back the update. The flaw is bad enough to feel like the phone is nearly a brick at this point.
