So I have been having this issue with my iPhone for months now but I just noticed it about a month ago. I can't seem to find anyone who has a similar issue to mine.

Whenever I take pictures of my phone and strong sunlight is bouncing off the lens or it is aimed towards the sun, my pictures get a TON of noise and grain. Mainly in the sky. I have never had this issue with any other iPhone I've had. It only happens with the standard 1x lens and I have gotten the camera replaced, tried different camera apps, turned on and off live mode and various camera settings etc. It ONLY happens when aiming at strong sunlight and really messes up the sky and sometimes other areas of pictures I'm taking. The wide angle and telephoto lens have absolutely zero issue. Here are a few examples attached (I have hundreds of examples of this BTW).
