Hey guys! Noticing this weird reflection when taking photos of bright subjects. Is this normal? I used to see this on my 7 Plus as well, but since I don't use the camera that often, I never started a thread. Since the same thing is happening on the XS max, I'm wondering whether this is normal or a defect and I've just been unlucky with two different iPhones. Hope someone replies. Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

Thanks. Didn't know what it was called. Looked it up and there are several threads on this. Relieved to know I don't have a bad unit lol.
