Soooo… I’ve never had this issue on any other phone before. Is it normal to get condensation inside the camera lense (wide angle and telephoto)?
it’s dried out now, but I can see spots on the inside of the lense now that the water is gone, I can only imagine this getting worse over time, affecting quality. is this worth an RMA?
I was wrong about the hole, but I’d like to point out that full size camera lenses don’t need to be as thin as possible to keep the camera bump in check.
It should still exclude water. Like, there are ways to equalize pressure that don’t allow for water to condense in the phone like OP’s photo. This is a Bad Thing™.
Wdym? Water has surface tension and dust is solid, air doesn’t have such limitations. My own phone (note 20 ultra) has an opening under the camera bump to allow air in to relive pressure despite having an ip68 rating.
Are you sure that’s not a microphone for videos? It’d be really weird to have a hole like that. Water should easily push itself through that hole. I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about when it comes to air pressure. I’m pretty sure your eardrums can survive close to a 1 atmosphere difference in pressure, and those are way more fragile than your phone. I’m not sure why your phone would need to normalize air pressure.
