I’m using an iPhone 14 that’s about 2 years old. Recently, I started noticing a strange issue with the camera.
When I take photos at 1x zoom, the pictures come out sharp and clear, as expected.
However, when I zoom out (e.g., 0.9x, 0.8x, etc.), the image quality drops drastically — the photos look pixelated and unclear, as if the resolution has broken down completely.
This issue appeared suddenly, and I’m not sure what caused it.
- iPhone model: iPhone 14
- iOS version: (You can fill in your current version, e.g., iOS 18.0.1)
- Issue: Blurry/pixelated images when zooming out below 1x
Has anyone else experienced this or found a solution? Could it be a hardware lens issue, software bug, or camera setting problem?
