I'm pretty upset my ticket with Apple has yet to be replied to, I created the ticket/bug with them back on October 31st and to this day I have yet to receive a single response.

Unbelievable.

I think the more people that tweet Apple Support and link this thread in the better, they will notice and not want this across Twitter...

I saw this image on a demo MacBook Pro from an iPhone 7 Plus... Not sure how they did it!!!

Equally some of the images on the demo photos library were blotchy in various lighting conditions but not as bad as what my iPhone produces... between the 6s and 7 there was not much in it at all in terms of details in the photos.

I too am experiencing this issue on My IPhone 7. Sort of "paint daub" effect. Really poor quality compared to my IPhone 5s which had only two thirds the pixels. Is it worth taking the phone back for exchange or will I just get the same. Complete waste of Money as I'm only really interested in the camera and this was the only reason for the upgrade.

Any comments/advice welcome.

By the way I asked customer support to call me to discuss - they called but cut me off even before I'd explained the reason for the call and never rang back!!

So have gone into the Apple store twice now. The first time they said the photos coming from the camera were "blurry" and they replaced the camera on the phone. Got the phone back. Same problem. Went back a week later. The guy there said he couldnt tell if there was an issue because "now that i had told him the images are kind of watercolor-y he might be inclined to see it more that way" At the end of it they replaced the phone entirely, but the photos came out the same. Even the test iphone 7 pluses in the store had the same bad camera quality....

Tweet Apple Support, that's what I did...

Have they replied yet?

I'm sad to say, Samsung has better cameras, especially when zoomed.

I''m a Mac addict so that was hard to put in writing.

Nothing as yet...

We all need to keep pushing this back to Apple as they are largely ignoring those complaining about this problem. I have a senior support person supposedly escalating as he had never heard of the problem and claimed to be interested in getting to the bottom of it. I sent actual iPhone 5s and 7 comparison shots as well as screen grabs to show him how bad the iPhone 7 images were and to illustrate the "painterly" result compared to the 5s.

he said he would respond today but of course I've heard nothing back despite that promise!

I Hope if everyone affected kicks up enough about it we may at least get them to acknowledge an issue and push for a fix perhaps through the next IOS update.

I Am in the process with Apple Support, via Twitter. They replied to my message fairly quickly.

I hope they find a solution.

I Will update here, if anything comes of this.

It is important to have the latest iOS, by the way.

Dealing with the same problem on my 7. The color quality is low and the pics come out grainy/painting like. It's awful. My iPhone 5s camera was better.

1. Try Updating

2. Try cleaning it

3. Take you iPhone to the AppleStore
