📸 Dust under the iPhone camera: how to remove it and should you panic?

When you take out your iPhone to take an important photo and the screen shows a blurry spot or cloudy dot, most likely, it got into the camera dust. This is one of the most common and at the same time unpleasant problems: everything seems to work, but photos and videos lose quality.

The good news is - this can and should be corrected. In service RUDservice we carry out professional cleaning of iPhone camera from dust, dirt and other contaminants.


🧹 Why does dust get into the iPhone camera?

Despite the fact that the iPhone is sealed and reliably assembled, in practice the following reasons for dust getting in are possible:

  • 🔧 Careless replacement of the display or back cover

  • 💥 Impacts, deformation of the body

  • 🧯 Factory sealing defect

  • 💨 Gradual penetration of dust through connectors or ventilation gaps

  • 💦 Moisture penetration followed by dust settling inside

  • Appear in photos and videos gray, white or black dots

  • The image seems cloudy, dull or uneven
