Camera lense not centered, should I care?

[orangemartini]

Hey there. Just noticed that the camera lense is a little off center in the circle-thingy. Here's a pic. It looks a little worse here than it actually is (had to angle the shot a bit so the light was right).

The pictures I've taken so far are beautiful. Soooo, should I be concerned about this? Or ignore it?

Does the lens still have the protective film on it?

Remove the film then check.

Yes... so?

i was thinking that the film made it look like it wasn't centered.....

It shouldn't effect the quality of photos but if your OCD tell your carrier you need a replacement

LOL, I am OCD, but this is my bazillionth replacement phone (long story) and it's actually all working right (hope I'm not jinxing myself here) and not overheating or any of these other crazy problems everyone's talking about on this forum. So if there's no real reason for me to be freaked, then I'm keeping it!

Thanks very much for your input

Thanks, but no, it's definitely not centered

I believe that is because of the optical image stabilization. The lens itself will move, just like the iPhone 6+...

My s6 edge and my buddy's edge camera lens isn't centered either. At first I flipped out but his is the exact the same way too.. Kinda closer to the bottom left of the phone/camera module. I also I heard it was because of OIS so I guess that's it lol.

Hmm, mine's closer to the bottom right. Whatever!

Mine is also bottom right. Doesn't seem to move and doesn't bother me.

Okay I'll go with this. LOL

I thought about exchanging it but I hate going through this OCD BS. LOL

I was the same way, ready to freakout. Pretty sure no one has one exactly centered though.

Now that I've had mine over two weeks, and taken over 300 absolutely gorgeous pictures with it, I'm over it. I still notice it when I look at the back, though! I've got OCD pretty bad. And the amount of money I paid for this phone is definitely making me more hypersensitive than usual. OK maybe I'm not as over it as I thought, lol. But it sure doesn't have any impact on picture quality.

None of them are centered. Don't worry.

Wonder if there is actually a reason why they did it, makes you wonder.

I wish I didn't read this thread. My phone takes such great pix that I didn't notice the lens being off-center. Oh well, it still takes great pix.

LOL, sorry!

I'm pretty sure it is from.the OIS. I watched my G3 do the same thing. Except it was while the camera app was open.
