Iphone 5 black spot

Hey there
My iphone 5 was originally purchased from singapore. I have noticed a black spot on my camera when i take pictures of while it is on standby
I currently reside in canada, but how can i get this problem fixed? Is it possible my local apple store to fix it regardless of where it has been purchased from

Probably the lens is dirty, you can't do anything expect going to an Apple Store and ask for a genius..

  • Black spot on the iphone 5S

    Hi, i've got almost one moth ago the iphone 5s, and has a black spot on the right side. i dont know what could be, so if someone has the same problem, could help me!?

    If this is damage from misuse it is not covered. Otherwise it is covered. It does not matter the Apple Store vs other store for purchase location, the 1 year Warranty is identical. Next time you go to Apple Store ask to see the store manager.

  • How do I remove black spots on silver side of iPhone 5 and what is it??

    How do I remove black spots on silver side of iPhone 5 and what is it?? Is it the silver rubbed off which I don't understand as I have been using a silicon case. Or is it due to trapped dirt within the silicon case somehow embedded now? I have tried to rub it off with a cloth and water but it doesn't work.

    Hi no if you zoom in a bit on the photo you can see little black specks. I had to compress the photo as only a 2mb limit on here for files so it's quite hard to see. They are all along the side of it on the silver and at the top of the phone as well.

  • Black spot on iPhone 5 ugh

    I was playing with my iPhone 5 camera and found a black spot how do I get rid of it have no apple replacements left?

    mine is a purple looking spot.  didnt notice it but had it since thanksgiving.  took it to apple and was 3 months pass warranty.   told me they could do nothing other than the 229 for a replacement.  ***** cause now i have this spot on all my pictures.  was hoping something could get done but they said they never seen that happen.  so i guess im out of luck.  spotty pictures for me till i drop some cash to get a new phone to replace my already great phone but now has a defect that i dont think I had anything to do with.  anyone run into this problem out side of the warranty and got help?

  • Black spot on corner of iPhone 4 screen

    I got my iPhone 4 at the beginning of July. About a week and a half ago this tiny little black spot showed up in the top left hand corner of my screen. I ignored it at first because it was small but it keeps growing. The phone hasn't been dropped or anything like that. The outside is perfect with no scratches or anything on it. The screen still works but the corner is completely black. I contacted Apple yesterday and I chose the option of paying $29 for a new phone over sending it in to be repaired mainly because they said it is probably a hardware issue and I don't trust this particular phone since it already had a problem after just 1 month of having it. They were very helpful on the phone and said that as long as the moisture sensors showed that it was fine (the bottom sensor that I can visibly see is white so this isn't an issue), the phone will be replaced with the new one for just the $29 even though they put a hold on my credit card for the full price of the phone to ensure that I actually send this one back. Has anyone ever had an issue like this on their phone? I was really disappointed when this happened but when it started growing, I was extremely frustrated. I am happy that they were so nice about the issue and everything is being handled in a nice way but this is just really disappointing. I have read of dead pixels happening but I don't know if these are dead pixels. It is completely black, not colored. Any idea what this might be? or has anyone experienced this with a phone before?

    I'm sorry but I thought this was a forum about Apple products. Yes, there are more important things to worry about but that doesn't mean that I can't be disappointed that my phone had a malfunction. While on an Apple forum, I feel that I should be able to discuss how I feel about a certain Apple product. And yes, I am getting mine replaced but you didn't answer my question that I asked. I know that I am getting it replaced and the problem will be solved but my question was does anyone know what the cause of this may be or if anyone has experienced this before. If you read my post, you will see that I said I am very happy with the way Apple handled it, but it is disappointing to have this happen to my new phone. I don't appreciate your post and it had zero helpfulness. Maybe you should realize that while on a forum about Apple products, even though they aren't the most important things in the world, people will discuss their issues with these products and yes, some will even be disappointed. Deal with it.

  • Black spot on my iPhone 3Gs Camera

    Even though outer hardware looks completely damage less, the Camera is showing small black spot and it's also showing up on the picture i take with it.
    It just simply dosen't go away,
    I been to everywhere and they all come with same answer; "go to apple"
    I wondering if apple will exchange this right away with out a hassle.
    Anyone had same problem? what do you do about it?

    I´ve noticed the same think as you. On my camscreen I´ve got a crocked line.
    Didn´t have that black line before, so I´ve thought it was a minor bump that caused this to happend.
    So... hmm... If a bump on the cam side of the phone could cause this, a new
    bump on the same side would fix it again?
    Down to business: smack! right on my knee twice, and look: the black spot in
    the cam app is now gone!
    Think I should go to the store and let them have a look at it.
    But wait for weeks for a replaced/fixed one? Don´t think so.
    So if you dare: Try slapp your baby once or twice on the lense side corner.
    Worked for me!

  • Black spot on ear speaker

    Hello...There is a black spot just behind the wire mesh of the ear speaker.It looks like a output of voice of the ear speaker.But I havent noticed till now.I m wondering if you have the same spot in your iphone 4....

    I'm not sure how anything can look like "a ouput of voice of the ear speaker".  If it is working to your satisfaction, I would stop examining it.

  • Black spot on "Camera" taking photos, not videos

    Hello everybody. I hope that you can help me. Today I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS6 and now I have a black spot up and left side of the camera. First I thought that it was something stuck to the lens, but it wasn't and when i set up the camera to use it to take a video the black spot doesn't appeirs. I've turned off the Camera app, the iPhone, I've tryed to change the options, puting in landscape mode, everything... and nothing happens. Also, when I use another app that uses the camera... it doesn't show the black spot.
    Is a problem with iOS6?. Does someone know how to fix it?... Somebody has the same problem?... anything that can help me .
    Thanks!

    (and by the way, of course the iPhone didn't received any punch)

  • Black spot on the screen

    I can't visulize the problem you are taking about.. There is noting to "leak out" of a the screen.
