I was going to suggest milling a piece of granite.That's misleading, the timber will likely warp over time from the temperature and moisture fluctuations in the pocket. If its dry enough it may even crack

They gave me a new phone as well, though my screen was clicking a little bit on one side too so that may be why.
From Apple's website (emphasis mine):
If your iPhone 6 Plus is producing blurry photos and falls into the eligible serial number range, Apple will replace your device's iSight camera, free of charge.
Your iPhone will be examined prior to any service to verify that it is eligible for this program and in working order.
yes, god for bid Apple has never ever had problems with the front facing camera.
"will get their cameras replaced from Apple at *no charge*." No one read the article did they?
I would think it's just the fault component that they would replace.... although if u want a new phone, just break it yourselfas long as its not visual enough that its "accidental damage",
So if I'm jailbroken and not on the latest iOS will they still fix it? It says I'm eligible. Just want to make sure this won't case any problems.

Chances exist that you wil get a completely new iPhone instead of just new part
"iPhone 6 Plus units that were sold between September of 2014 and January of 2015"
In other words, early adopters. Should I wait for Feb 2016 for the iPhone 6S Plus?
if its foggy it sounds like condensation might have started forming inside the lens. That's not normal unless you've dropped it in water. I would take it in if its still under warranty and have them check for water damage. If none is found then they should replace it free of charge. If it's not under warranty then the cost of a back camera might be about $60 but it beats a whole new device![/QUOTE]Bugger.
That's because the sleep/wake button can't be repaired in-house, they ship it to a repair facility (depo repair).That's not what they did with the iPhone 5 lock button problem. They keep it for ONE WEEK while fixing it. I know from personal experience.
If they run diagnostics, which they most likely will, it will tell them which version of iOS the device has installed. Since iOS 9 is a beta, Apple doesn't consider them the latest version and will require you to restore the phone before the service is started.The question is will they replace the camera if it's running iOS 9 public beta? I've heard hardware issues are still eligible. Is that true?
I'm pretty sure you know the real reason why, because it has nothing to do with Apple.Oh Lord, my Apple stock is tanking.....![]()
We meticulously designed this camera to fall out of place and produce beautifully blurred pictures...

I get that. I wouldn't worry to be honest. They are pretty pro.
I don't think so. S models share a lot of the same design and tech as the previous model, which means they've had an entire year to work out any kinks like these while having ample time to work on the tech and design changes the S model brings. They're not designing and building an entirely new phone concept from scratch so there's more time for perfecting and less room for error."iPhone 6 Plus units that were sold between September of 2014 and January of 2015"

I just called Apple - my phone is eligible too, but not having the problem. Apple's reply?? We are not doing the replacement until you have the problem. So I asked...what if I'm on vacation when it goes bad? I'm just stuck losing all my vacation pics and videos? Her reply? Yes.Mine is eligible, but it's working fine.
The FaceTime camera on my 5S is foggy. Can I get a replacement for that?
I'm pretty sure you know the real reason why, because it has nothing to do with Apple.
See my comment to HenryDJP above.....it always does before a new iPhone announcement this is normal
Assuming it's a "new" phone it's either refurbished (will look and feel brand new) or a brand new phone. In either case, you won't have a dead pixel out of the box and it won't be scratched.
I had this problem with my first 6+ which was replaced a couple days ago because of a display issue. The new phone is or appears to be brand new. No issues with the camera, no scratches, perfect display. My experience with several iPhones and multiple Macs has been that if your device is going to have an issue, you'll likely get it within the first few months. There are an unlucky few who experience just-out-of-warranty issues but I'd say they're in the minority.

Boo Apple. Known issue, but sorry unless you have the problem you are just a time bomb that we can fix but would rather blow up...meh
So what precisely is the problem? That EVERY photo is blurry, or just some of them?
I get blurry photos sometimes, but I thought it was just that I was moving or shook the camera.

Hold on, that was just a tongue-in-cheek reply to a poster who suspected that MANY millions of iPhone 6 Plus units would have to be repaired for faulty iSight cameras. It was posted at 10:25 PM last night, well before today's stock market troubles surfaced, or at least well before I became aware of them, and my comment had nothing to do with that.
Do you eat paint chips or something?I'm eligible so therefore they should fix their mistakes. Thanks.
