I got a 6 plus a few months back and the camera started taking really blurry pics. The Apple store gave me a new phone since the camera would not focus. It worked for a month and now blurry pics again. I googled it and it seems to be a problem for some. The little motor on the camera goes out. I called Apple and they have me set up to get another new phone this weekend. Anyone else have issues? I need the camera since I do lots on ebay, cant sell with crappy pics.
If this is going to keep being a issue I may get the regular 6? They don't have the issue.
 
Note 4 checking in here. My iPad doesn't even compare.

Get a better phone.
 
I like my wing X, Tom Tom and other apps on my iphone. I am not switching to a Note 4. I just need my camera to work :-)
 
You know, there are such things as cameras that aren't attached to phones...

I know. I have one. At home, where it virtually always is.

Back on point, I had not heard of this issue yet on the tech shows. Hope it can be resolved via software.

A real camera is a pain in the ass. I list stuff on ebay daily with the ebay app on my phone. You snap a pic and it is in the add and hit list. It would make my life miserable having to use a regular camera and download all that crap! A 10 second job would turn to 10 minutes. Plus I am not packing a camera and a phone when I go somewhere. GEEZ!
Maybe I should pack a video camera everywhere also :-)
 
Here's one I took yesterday using my 6+.

Well played. That was exactly what I was gonna do. I sold my regular camera and the customer said it had blur issues as well

Are you sure you don't have it confused with a colonoscope?

In all serious, I have no experience with iThings. I was really just yanking your chain. I'm an old fart who likes separate devices for separate duties.

Although I will say that the camera on my BlackBerry Q10 is the first cell phone camera I've used that I think is worthy of being called a camera at all. Not that it's great by my standards, but it would be good enough for eBay; so I can understand your wanting that convenience.

I say just keep returning it until they get it right; and failing that, try for an upgrade on their coin.

Here is a nice picture I took the other morning :-(
I don't have time for this crap. Now for the second time I have to drive a hour and a half to the Apple store to exchange this junk. I could be out flying my Pitts in the morning instead.
