Had Black Spots showing up in iPhone 5 camera..

[Black Magic]

Just wanted to share a story just in case anyone else is having the same issue. I noticed a couple days ago a black circle that showed up on my camera that could not be rubbed off externally. I zoomed in and it would disappear only to come back when I zoomed back out. I took photos and the black spot was there on the photo. Almost like I had a speck of dust stuck in the lens.

I shot over to the nearest Apple store and they replaced it on the spot with a brand new phone. No hassle, no problems. While I do have AppleCare+, this didn't cost me a dime as I assume it's still in the 90 day warranty period.

good to hear they're still treating their customers well!

When it comes to defects Apple has outstanding service! It's very rare that you'll find another company who will replace a $500 product right on the spot with a brand new one.

Had the same problem

I was having the same issue. I dont have apple care+, and it had been about 100 days since I got my iphone 5, and they replaced mine free of charge, hassle free. Just wanted to put that out there for others in this situation.
