Lights on night photos

Do you work for apple? I never had this problem with my Samsung Note. This is clearly a problem with the multiple lenses. Please don’t answer with bogus information that doesn’t lead to a solution. I never had this problem with my older generation IPhones as well.

That's lens flare and there is no way to get rid of it.

What is lens flare?

No it's not a defect, it is the physics of how glass reflects light. Read the article I posted, it explains everything.
