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
I’ve had this issue a couple times in the past and they always replaced it. I also waited till right before the year warranty was up one time because it didn’t affect the pictures and got a new phone a year into usage.
Return it.
I would return it 100%
What brand of case is that? I’d like to buy one.
I too had a similar dust particle inside my 15pro max, that was 2 months ago, its still there doesn’t affect the functionality at all.
This is unfortunately pretty common. If you shine a flashlight into the camera lenses more often than not you’ll probably find some dust underneath them. That one is more apparent though.
I have an iPhone 14 Pro. Mine has a few bits of dust underneath two lenses but it doesn’t effect my photos.
They swap it out with another one, chances are it might have it too. Maybe just not show quite as bad. They are mass produced devices, and dust is everywhere. It doesn’t matter if it’s super duper IP 6000 resistant, dust is all over and it WILL get in there eventually. Just look at the back of your camera modules and see how much dust they collect for example. There’s no way few specks aren’t making it in.
I stopped letting it bother me. If it starts affecting my photos then I’ll reach out to Apple.
Do you know why? Search where are some iPhone 15 assembled and why, if you want to know right away, it’s India
You Paid $1100 for a speck of dirt in brand new iPhone, return it.
Mine was shipped with a chip in the titanium above the action button.
Replace it.
Ok
A MOUS CASE!!!
I have the exact same issue!!! Brand new 15 Pro Max. Contacted apple support. They said that if it doesn’t affect photo quality they can’t do anything. I also think that a 1200$ should be spotless…
Those damn chinese slaves…
