My brand new iPhone 15 pro max has a speck of material in one of the camera lenses… (alien.top)

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

The quality control on the new iPhones is just horrible.

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??

[–] clearlyjammed@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

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.
