    iPhone 12 Pro Been a long time: does Apple repair or replace phone with a busted lens?

    I haven’t needed an iPhone repair in forever. My iPhone 12 Pro has a busted 1x lens. Will they just swap it out at the Apple Store like in the old days, or make me ship it out for repair?

    Iphone 12 series apple silicone case photos, how does it age?

    Does your case show any signs of wear and tear yet? I tried different colors before choosing the black one, for whatever reason it's way smoother than the other colors I tried and attracts way less lint, not sure why

    Compared to the iPhone 11, which took a bit of force to move the mute button, my 12 pro max seems to way more easy, I'm just wondering if this is normal with the new 12 series or did I just somehow break my mute switch? How do you know when it's broken?
