Nexus 6p Noise/Lines in Photos

[MohsinMCE]

Recently bought a Nexus 6p 2 daya ago and observed these lines in the photos taken using the camera, they show up while I am pointing camera at something. Sometimes they go away if I restart the camera app multiple times. I thought it's related to marshmallow so I updated to 7.1.1 using the OTA update, but the results are the same. It's not all the time but like 70 percent of the time the lines are there and will vanish upon restarting the camera app 3 4 times. Any leads if it is a hardware issue as my phone is under warranty and I would be returning it if it's a hardware issue. Any fixes available?

Welcome to Android Central! That looks like a hardware issue -- I'd send it in for warranty repair or replacement.

Very strange that it doesn't happen all of the time. Have you tried taking pictures in Safe mode?
