Get over it…
I was going to link an article about it on pro camera lenses. Fact is - if you know how to look for it, you will see dust inside all of the lenses. It’s a fact of life and you can minimize it but it will always be there. This is not a hardware issue but an issue with a lot of people here on this forum. You will never get a perfect phone.
There was a journalist who went under cover in one of the iPhone plants in China. The workers had to do thousands of backplate work per day and the only way to keep your sanity was to force the action which left a tiny mark. People like you would probably obsess over this mark, but if you actually knew what caused it you would actually be ashamed to return it. So factory work is crapy, someone working on your phone let a dust particle in the lens, they are human - so live with it…

I’ll try something different and tell me if it works.
Annie Chow was the factory worker who sets the front camera module in the frame of the phone you have. She is pretty but also a single mother who needs her job to keep her cute little children feed. If many people complained about dust under the lens, Apple would forward the lot number to the factory and Annie would lose her job and the children would lose their home and starve.
So by you just learning to live with the dust particle under the lens, every time you see it you will know that you helped that family survive - half way around the world!
Now you can live with it…

Well I see… I do know it’s hard to get a perfect device… I guess QC is a bit lower this year for some reason… my 11/12/13 pro were all perfect.
Well that’s deep but Annie needs to improve her skills I would say… if she wants her job… that’s no excuse to let dust in the module….
It wasn’t all Annie’s fault. The factory was closed for a while because of the Covid protocols - unlike previous years. Dust would settle and be in abundance when production started up again.
Annie is a good girl, the type you could take home to meet your family and marry. One tiny speck under the glass that doesn’t mean anything to the function of the camera. Be a hero, live with the speck of dust and bridge the political and socio-economic gap and prove we are all humans worthy of empathy anywhere in the world. I know you have it in you!
Be brave, be strong, watch six…

The Apocalypse of Lens Dust
Apocalypse (from the Greek apokálypsis; "lifting of the veil" or "revelation"): An event involving destruction or damage on an awesome or catastrophic scale. A disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind. How appropriate the word apocalypse is for this little article. At least...
