Saturday I received the iPhone 14 pro max deep purple. Slapped my Belkin screen protector on then placed it inside apples leather case. This morning in different lighting i notice hairline crack starting at the camera “flashlight” I’m curious if anyone else notices this issue on theirs?

I google this issue and it seems apple noticed cracked camera bumps back in July then switched suppliers

Hard to picture what you mean from the post. Like someone else said, actual pictures would help.

The phone performs fine. I feel silly asking you all to have a look at those bumps! A real Debbie downer this morning
Oh your photo wasn’t showing before. Yes I can see what looks like 2 scratches on the camera bump. I don’t think they are cracks as they are too linear imo. Probably won’t affect the camera function/quality but would annoy me…I’d be tempted to return/exchange (shame there’s no stock anywhere it seems!). No chance you could have damaged it accidentally against a flat surface such as by lying it down on a table naked?

No chance. I’m annoyed that my old 12 Pro normal wear on the band but the glass is perfect
