Quality Control when they are pushing out new iPhones especially

My wide-angle camera lens has a very tiny dust particle which is actually invisible to the naked eyes, but when you observe from a certain angle under certain lighting, it’s there. I suspect it might even be a very tiny chip inside the sapphire lens cover instead of a dust particle coz it hasn’t moved from its position since I found it on day one. Never expected it to bug me that much, but it did.

I am over it now. It really is just a cosmetic issue, barely visible and doesn’t affect camera performance at all.

Did you leave the display on for too long by accident? 🤔

Most people use WhatsApp anyway on my side of the world 😂. Doesn’t really matter for me 🤣.

Rugged Cases from Nomad, Rhinoshield, Mous, Casetify will give you peace of mind for sure.

If you’re not a rugged case person and u don’t need a rugged case to protect your phone. Go for minimal case like Apple Silicone Case. Don’t go for finewoven as its reviews are horrible.

Assistive Touch. This is how I set it up.

Basically I don’t rely on physical buttons of my iPhone on a daily basis, except for turning the phone on and off. Then again, the last time I had it restarted was during software updates. This will keep your buttons and mute switch in mint condition.

I am surprised most of the lenses are still intact 😂

Apple QC isn’t what it used to be.. Sometimes people only find out after using it for a while and not able to get it swapped for a new one. We get it. It’s a cosmetic issue and doesn’t affect its functionality. But come on.. We paid a grand for that piece of tech. Shouldn’t we expect flawless hardware outta the box 🤷🏻‍♂️.

sorry just ranting here folks.. ha ha my 14 pro got a few defects as well but it’s too late when I found out about it.

Ever since they switched to a glass back on iPhone 8/X, gone are the days, users can confidently use their 📱without a case. I mean if it doesn’t cost $1000 people might still consider going case-less 😂.

Between the two, I’ll go for 13 Pro. Mainly due to promotion and bigger battery. But that large camera module is just so aesthetically pleasing 😍.

I am using a 14 Pro for my personal device and S21 Ultra as my work and everything else device. IMO, they are both great 📱. They are both stunning devices and aesthetically pleasing. Each has their own pros and cons. Side-load apps on android and controlled, more private ecosystem on iOS. Can’t say one is better than the other. They are just both excellent!
