iPhone 6 plus rear camera blurry/wobbly (not focusing)

iPhone 6 plus rear camera is not focusing, won't remain stable and is blurry no matter how still I get whether video or picture. Automatic or manual focus not working either. Front facing camera works fine. Seems OIS isn't doing anything but making it worse.


Here is a photo(below) taken while completely still that never focuses automatically or manually and is vibrating vertically as if taken in motion.

Videos become wobbly and out of focus. Link: https://vid.me/Nxh

Steps I have taken:

1. Closed all apps and forced reboot of phone.

2. Reset all settings.

3. Restored phone to latest 8.1 software and set up as new phone.


Results still the same even if I use 3rd party camera/video app.

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1

I'm having the same issue that I never thought it was the phone until this news comes out. I thought it was just me or the low light. now that I pay attention to this detail it really is blurry. I don't know will fixing it be the same as original or will something else will screw up again especially they have many small parts. Maybe it is a perfect time to trade in for the new iPhone 6s Plus.

The program is in effect BUT what about those (like me) who have a defective camera with a 1 year warranty and do not qualify for the serial number units that Apple discretionally has chosen as with defective iSight cameras. Of course Apple cannot say that ALL cameras are or could potentially be defective though I believe should´ve been more straight forward and provide for those who can present same problems outside their estimated wrongful doing.


Anybody in this situation?


Thanks!

I hope so Deggie!


I am totally ****** off with this matter! Paid over US 1,000 for the phone in London and now can´t get any pictures right. And you know what?


There´s no authorized service provider in my country no any Apple Store, thus the only way would be for me to bring the phone to a neighbor country and see whether they can provide for the repair...


Thanks for the reply!
