Faint hissing sound when rear camera is used

[checkmate]

This is an odd one! I've have my Z Play for about 2 weeks now and just noticed an odd sound when the camera is used.

If I go to the camera app and put my ear to the rear camera, I can hear a faint hissing sound, like when you turn a speaker up really loud and hear the background interference.

It's so strange! There's also a slight popping sound when I switch between camera and anything else.

Can someone try theirs to see if it's just my device?

If I was a betting man, I would put my money on a hardware fault... which will only get worse is my guess.

You might want to look into how you can get it replaced. It would be a warranty, or maybe even a straight up exchange depending on where you got it from.

Thanks for the response, I bought it direct from Motorola's UK website. I've sent them a support request so hopefully they'll get back to me.
