iPhone X lens cracked

I can see a few people have also had their iPhone X camera lens crack !!!! My was bought on a Thursday and instantly put into a case and had a glass screen protector fitted, by the end of the weekend my lens had a crack in it and then the next day a complete hole around the lens !!! No drops, no keys or coins in my pockets nothing.... same story from apple only complete phone replacement at a cost of $750.... obviously there is a flaw in the lens glass.... I’ve owned every iPhone since 2007 and ( touch wood ) never cracked a screen and finally to buy the panicle of iPhones only to have it break for no reason after a few days is extremely disappointing....

I have the same problem. Bought my new iphoneX three days back. It was always in the case and had screen protector since the time I bought the phone. I never dropped it and always kept in my pocket. Today I noticed a crack in front of the rear camera and was extremly dissapointed. I am

using my iphone 6s since last 3 year which doesnt have a single fine scratch on complete body, so you can imagine the level of care I take of my device. Now reading this complete thread, I dont see any hope of getting this fixed in Apple Store but will give a try.


Apple Team! This is high time to take some serious steps and work on fixing this problem. With so many users sharing the same experience, there seems to be a genuine design issue.

Yep, same thing happened to me a few weeks ago, bought a brand new iPhone X less than 2 months ago and the camera cracked on the lens and it’s never been dropped and has a solid, expensive case. I’ve owned Apple iPhones since they first came out and have never had a camera cracked, the x obviously has a more sensitive Camera but they want me to pay 630 euros (Aussie currently living in Germany) to replace the stupid thing, fuming!!
