Yeah the phone should be dust resistant, so that there is dust inside is concerning and would make me think the phone has issues with ingress. Getting the repair completed should actually resolve that, since they replace the adhesive that gives it the IP rating. If this is an iPhone 14 or 14 Plus you could also ask them to reseal both the front and back glass during the repair. It’ll probably take a bit longer but they’d likely understand given dust has gotten in.

Unfortunately, it’s a 14 Pro Max in this hypothetical. I hear the back glass is a nightmare for the Pro models. Although it would make sense to point the cameras at sources of light and see if any picture degradation/artifacts creep up. See if this even affects the image output. Still, $1600 phone… shouldn’t have this issue. Ah well. I’ll google which camera is which so I can isolate the one that’s suspect.
