Hello guys,

Like we all know the new iPhone got a new flashlight. I was looking at mine when I turned the flashlight on. You have like 4 lights in the flashlight. Is it normal when you turn the flashlight on that you can only see the 2 light above shining?

Where does the 2 lights below stand for?

Anyone knows this or is this a defect on my new iphone and need the 4 lights to shine?

There is no defect. The quad flash, use the top two for various light output, low-medium-high. The bottom two are for the Tru-Tone flash for the camera.
 
The top two LEDs gives you white light while the bottom two gives you warm (yellowish) light. Having the top two on is correct, else your flashlight would appear warm (yellowish) instead of white.
