I was laying in bed this morning and opened up the instagram app to take video and noticed a clicking sound/static. After investigating a bit I figured out it was white noise coming from the microphone on the back camera whenever in photo/video mode. Is that normal? Try it yourselves and let me know. Open it up the camera/video and hope the back of the phone to your ear by the back microphone/camera area. Do you all hear white noise too?

Sorry to double post - but spoke to Apple Support. They said the white noise isn’t a hardware issue and it’s software related. So will just wait for an update

Me too. I don’t have problems with Instagram, Snapchat, etc. like many other people, but only with the main camera app.

Its very weird but in my IP14 pro max this noise happens when i have the photo mode but not if i select the video mode and 4K 60fps resolution. If i select HD 30 or 60fps it happens too.
