Does anyone have any advice? I am 3+ hours away from the closest Apple Store and would like to avoid sending it in and being without a phone for 5+ days if possible. Pretty disappointing as I mainly bought this phone for the camera
How did u notice the speck? Or did it show in your camera lenses
This is ridiculous!!
I doubt it’ll realistically affect the image quality. I would just move past it.
It would bug me forever no matter if it would affect the performance or not.
No matter. You paid premium money for a good product. Return that and get a new one.
You can just wipe it off
It’s on the inside…
So? Who takes photos anyways
It seems like there is a piece of glass in front of the lens (the case maybe?).
Are you sure it isn’t between the glass and the lens?
Best to get it replaced since this will continue to bother you for sure.
Functionally it wont matter, but definitely return or exchange it. Don’t know about you but I’m not accepting even a slight defect in a 1200$+ device.
Agreed that spec likely won’t show up on pictures (like back in the day when specs got on SLR primary lenses or something like that lol)
The quality control on the new iPhones is just horrible.
Mine has specs behind the front camera too
There shouldnt be! People pay more than 1K for these things.
Yeah $2200 up here in Canada and I don’t even have the pro max. Just regular 512 pro
I’d go to an apple store and get a new one. You might get some judgemental looks but fuck it, you paid thousands not to get a “good enough” quality phone.
I agree. Kinda sucks for sure. Luckily I’ve managed to band the dust particle to the very edge of the lens now.
My initial one I received had scratches on the screen so I returned it for another. The replacement also had scratches on the screen…
The hell? Where are you buying it from??
Straight from AT&T
So were you able to replace the replacement
I’ve bad 4 15 pro maxes. First 2 had marks on the titanium band out of the box. 3rd has camera lens dust. 4th was perfect. QC isn’t up to standard
When did you purchase your phone and did you purchase it from the Apple Store or elsewhere?
The reason being, if you are within the 14 day period, you can just get it exchanged.
You have spent a lot of money. Spending 6 to 7 hours may seem worth it.
This happened to me when I got my XS Max. One little spec was making a blur spot in all my photos straight out of the box. I just took it to Best Buy and geek squad swapped out that individual camera. It’s kind of hard to remember but I’m pretty sure it was at no cost since it was covered under a manufacture defect or something.
Mountain on case? Spec on camera lens? Is this an scp-096 reference?
run…
Return it
/thread
You Paid $1100 for a speck of dirt in brand new iPhone, return it.
Ok
Replace it.
