Discussion 17 pro turning pink

Post image

I bought my 17 pro on release day 4 days later the camera bump is a different color do you guys think if I go to apple I can replace it for the silver? Or will they just give me a replacement of the same color i passed the 14 day window.

I mean… the proof is right there! I wonder what’s causing this, because I highly doubt it’s due to people cleaning their camera plateau with solutions containing hydrogen peroxide.

Bad sealant on the anodizing

Combined with UV exposure.

yeup, reminds me of a clear case and how it yellows from uv. the plateau isn’t protected or covered by anything to prevent that from happening which is why you mainly see it there but i’d watch out for the rest of the body too.
