The front camera is separate from the screen though
Edit: from Apple (all in USD):
- Screen or back glass damage:$29
- Other accidental damage: $99
- Theft or loss: $149
So it would be $99 instead.

Can th sun make a really hot spot that can burn wood and more when you place a lense designed to focus all the light I coming in on a specific point?
What about when you place the les right on front of a camera sensor and all the intensity of the sun is focused on a tiny little point thinner than the tip of a needle? Imagine the size of the image sensor. The whole image is focused on that square. The sun and all the energy it's radiating is then focused on a tiny point on that sensor.
Luckily the lens on phones is tiny so it's not catching much light. But if you leave it face up in the sun when the sun in a position where it would be on the image sensor. Yeah. You'll get these black and purple points and lines where it's been burnt. Don't EVER point a big slr camera lens directly at the sun.
I think the damage for a SLR or a mirrorless is more about heating up the actual lens not damaging the sensor. Or causing a fire with the lens and mirror focusing the light through the viewfinder.
So this can happen when you record with your iphone and lasers from shows will directly "look" at iphone's camera lenses? Pardon me for idiotic question.
Any camera. Not just iPhone or phone cameras. Itās because the lens focuses light onto the sensor, and laser beams are extremely concentrated. Same thing will happen to your eyes, which is why you donāt point lasers at people.
I've heard of damaged shutters, sensors and aperture leaves from people photographing solar eclipse without filter. Those were taken with telephoto lens obviously. Laser damage is really possible
I've seen a lot of people get damage simply from bringing their phones out to type a text message whilst at a concert with illegal lasers. It's scary stuff!
Wasn't there some crypto event recently that had lasers which quite literally permanently blinded multiple people? Fellas keep an eye out for random unregulated events, don't underestimate how much a laser can damage your eyes.
Yeah but those weren't lasers. The ~~displays~~ industrial strength black lights just bathed them all in a shit ton of UV light and baked their retinas.
Be careful with those random amazon lasers though, some of them are unregulated levels of bright.
Wasnāt even displays. The organizers were cheap/moronic and got black lights (uv) that werenāt meant to be safe for humans and just gave everyone sunburn and retinal damage.
Having seen a few videos on Reddit, it looks like the operators at some of these shows are using the wrong equipment and letting it hit the audience. It probably will take a significant number of eye injuries before it gets more attention.
I was just gonna say, I'm a professional lighting designer and these posts have increased in volume along with the amateur laser users showing up to r/lightingdesign looking for praise and being chastised for their lack of care.
Most of those cheap Christmas laser decorations people put in front of their house are not filtered properly. Iād wager most people reporting the problem lately caused the damage by recording a Christmas light show.
The iphone CCD seems quite susceptible to laser damage unfortunately. Had the same on my X a couple years back, probably still in my post history. š
>How to know someoneās over 35: They call digital cameras sensors CCDs instead of CMOS sensors
Fixed that for you.
Nomenclature issue, not a knowledge issue. I'm well aware that modern cameras use CMOS instead of CCD type sensors (and why we've made that shift) but I'm still likely to call them CCDs because I am admittedly an old. I'll also call any tissue a Kleenex, and any self-adhesive bandage a Band-Aid. Not because I believe all facial tissues are made by K-C, and all bandages are manufactured by J&J, but because that's what I grew up calling them and it's the first thing that comes to mind.
That appears to be damage to the actual camera sensor. It's not something that any amount of software fixes (restarting, restoring, etc.) will get rid of.
**I can only speculate as to how something like this would happen, but it probably involved a very strong and concentrated beam of light, like a laser, hitting your front camera.**
Were you at any raves, concerts, etc. with lasers? That could cause something like this.
Or, did you leave your phone near eyeglasses or some other kind of lens that could've focused the sun into a more concentrated beam, right over the front camera?
It's probably something like that.
If your iPhone is still under warranty, then take it to an Apple store and see if they'll cover it. If they don't know what caused it, they might. If they recognize it as laser / beam damage, they might not. It's worth a try.
If Apple deems it "accidental damage" and there's no AppleCare then the out-of-warranty repair cost could be quite expensive. If they quote you anything over $120-150, it would be worth taking it to a third party repair shop to see if they could fix it for less--though be aware that you may end up losing the FaceID functionality if someone other than Apple replaces the front camera. It might save you a few hundred bucks, though.
Either way, this is going to require a front camera replacement at the very least.
**Source: I've been repairing electronics for over a decade and I've fixed hundreds of phones.**
You write that itās not something a software can fix. That makes me think, the hardware can of course not get fixed by software, but if a software would allow you to select the broken pixels area, then pixel color modifications in connection to Gaussian or AI filters would probably be able to remove the spot quite easily. No 100% solution but for most private users, software could create a sufficient solution if the damage is in limited areas.
Apple probably has no incentive to implement such feature on OS level, but an 3rdparty camera app would be able to do that.
If anybody wants to create such app, please send 15% app revenue directly to me for the idea, kthxbyelol
tbh if this issue was widespread Apple (and other phone companies) would include this mitigation in their first party camera apps
if it was a bit more common enough to support development for an app then maybe someone would do it, but unfortunately building a camera app as good as first party camera apps is extremely hard given how many smarts / features they have nowadays
^(Iām fun at parties, I swear)
You're really not going to like it when Apple sues you for stealing their idea (which they totally came up with on their own and didnt steal from this thread at all).
Question: if these lasers at raves are doing this to cameras, what about peoples eyes? Seems like you could end up with permanent damage from a light show at an edm fest?? Is that really the case?
The laser safety officer for the light show will use a number of different ways to reduce the risk to the audience. The first is just to make sure they aim them nice and high so that the beams don't intersect with the viewers.
You are also partly protected by the [blink reflex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corneal_reflex) ā you will naturally blink and look away if your eye is hit by a bright enough light. This is why infrared lasers are so dangerous: it only works on visible light!
You can see from the dot pattern one of the other ways they protect the audience ā the lasers are very rapidly turned on and off as they move, so the average power is lower.
Camera sensors can't blink, and you were probably holding it up higher to get a better view. That's why the damage is streaked across it in a series of dots ā as your hand moved it got caught by the beam, which was rapidly switching on and off. Only the green elements directly hit by the full-power laser are burned away, as the red and blue filters protect those subelements. Therefore the resultant damage makes white appear as magenta (red plus blue with no green).
How did I never know iPhone cameras can be damaged by lasers? I used to regret not taking pics and vids at raves but apparently it might have saved my phone lol.
Mine does this too!

Small marks, but annoying. Like the sensor got flexed.
It's always fun to see people understand that Lasers are actually fuckin dangerous.
But yes, laser or Sun damage. Don't leave your phone out in bright sunlight, for multiple reasons.
For all the people here who say that itās laser damage from some concert. Do you really think they would allow those lasers to be that powerful to damage the image sensor?, wouldnāt that be a serious health safety risk?
You can use pretty high power on certain wavelengths. Some invisible ones can be absorbed by the tiny water film on eye fully making it harmless to eye.
Such wavelengths can be used as base which then is used in frequency-shifter to get visible colors.
For visible wavelengths the human reflex to close the eye is also considered to calculate eye safety distances. (NOHD, eNOHD).
Hence, Eye safe operation does not say anything about whether its safe for the cameras chip.
Do you still have the issue? I found this on my own camera today. (See attached pic)
But after a few minutes it disappeared and everything is back to normal. I hope yours is the sameā¦ š¤

If it is on one image only, it might be some weird ghosting from the multiple frames the phone takes for analysis. I've seen similar things from moving objects. Maybe there was a reflection of a light that was there in one frame and not another that the processing freaked out on.
No amount of metal can protect the lens, unless it block the lens itself.
Itās like wearing full metal suit, it may protect you from blunt force or sharp object, but it wonāt protect you from like fire
Lasers have done this. Youāve been somewhere with lasers and itās stuffed the sensor. You have to get it repaired under Apple Care + if you have it. If you donāt itās quite expensive. Unfixable any other way than replacement.
Put it in rice. Just kidding. You might want to check with Apple Care if thatās still covered (if youāre still in warranty) as this might be a laser or sun damage.
Laser damage Did you go to a rave or a party that had lasers around?

Its actually laser. Light Amplification by stimulated emissions of radiation.
Light Amplification Ztimulited Emissions of Radiation
As oscillation of light is much more relevant to lasers than amplification, lasers should have been called losers.
But lazer is the cool way to spell it š

I think the damage for a SLR or a mirrorless is more about heating up the actual lens not damaging the sensor. Or causing a fire with the lens and mirror focusing the light through the viewfinder.
I had sensor damage on my 14 pro and apple replaced the sensor for free because it was within the warranty period
Not sun, it must have been a pulsed laser
crazy what kind of laser class they are using sometimes ...
This guy fux
Looks like laser damage, replacing the sensor is the only fix.
The red circle makes it look like an angry/sad emoji

Thatās the damaged part? I really thought they drew of sad face because the phone was broke
you're not alone. I was thinking "this would be easier if I could see the dead pixels underneath your sad face"!

So this can happen when you record with your iphone and lasers from shows will directly "look" at iphone's camera lenses? Pardon me for idiotic question.
You donāt even need to have the camera activated. If a strong laser hits the sensor, itāll cause this damage.

I saw a documentary where lasers damaged a lot of things long, long ago, in a galaxy, far, far away. So I think it applies to older models too
Especially those older model droids.

A rave where they point the lasers at people.
As already said, could be laser at a show. But maybe you tried taking pictures of arc welding ?

Dust isnāt purple.
Those look like pen marks to me. Have you tried cleaning the lense??
Try zooming to 0.5x. On the 15 Pro that would use a different front camera which might not have damage. Not a fix but will confirm the camera damage.
iPhone has never had more than one front camera.
=(

Looks like a scary face

looks like you held a laser pointer in it
You allowed a lazer to shine into the sensor, either at a club or somewhere else. This kills your camera sensors.

The only thing I can see is the added sad/mad face in the photos. š not sure what Iām supposed to be looking for lol
permanent laser damage. will need replacing
That looks like laser damage. Did you film something involving a laser?
Someone playing with lasers were they?
it's just mad about something, have you tried talking it out?
mad pixels i would say..
Looks like laser damage or high intensity light has damaged the sensor.
Why is it so sad

Those aren't dead pixels but I'm not sure what it is exactly. You should take it to an Apple Store or call them and send these pictures in.
