Users Complaining iPhone 15 Pro Models Have Dust in Camera Lens, Display Misalignment, and Scratches Out of The Box

Apple's new iPhone 15 Pro models feature a new titanium finish which is stronger than stainless steel but lighter. While the new finish will contribute to making the device more durable and resistant to falls, users have been getting their models with flaws out of the box. According to a tipster, some users are complaining about dust particles in the camera lens of the iPhone 15 Pro while others are reporting scratches and display misalignment.

Users complain their new iPhone 15 Pro models did not arrive in perfect condition as some coined dust particles in the camera lens, while others have reported scratches and more

Lucky customers who received their iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max on September 22 have been reporting quality concerns. It was previously reported that even holding your iPhone 15 Pro could change its color temporarily and Apple is aware of the issue. The company recommends putting a case on the devices and cleaning it with a soft damp cloth. However, if there is one thing that a damp cloth can not fix is the scratches, display misalignment, and dust in the camera lens on the iPhone 15 Pro.

The news was shared by a tipster named Majin Bu on X, suggesting that users have been seeing dust particles inside the camera lens of the iPhone 15 Pro. The dust particles are inside the camera lens which means that it can not be cleaned. The tipster also claims that a dust-free workshop is needed with quality control measures to ensure such standards are not met. For a device that costs upwards of $1,000, users would perceive the standards as below subpar, especially when it is coming from Apple.

Other than dust particles in the camera lens of the iPhone 15 Pro, users have also stated that the display on their device is misaligned. This could pose a threat to durability in the long run as it would compromise the structural integrity of the device. Additionally, users have also reported that their iPhone 15 Pro came with scratches out of the box. Scratches are evident on the titanium frame of the device as well as the screen, according to the tipster.

We have already covered the discoloration aspect of the iPhone 15 Pro and how it is present in all color options. Furthermore, users have also seen asymmetries when it comes to the antennas. The tipster states that these issues are part of the iPhone 15 Pro models "destined for the US, Chinese, and EU markets." We will keep you guys posted on the latest, so be sure to stick around.

We have always associated quality with Apple products. The company pays immense attention to details but this year, it seems the quality standards are not as adequate as they were last year. If Apple takes note of the issue beforehand, it will call out suppliers to put corrective measures on the assembly lines.
