The live focus and x2 zoom on my note 9 has suddenly become blurry and the phone is producing a buzzing/vibrating sound everytime I try to use them. Other people have experienced the same issue, and I assume it is a manufacturing faulty. Shouldn't the phone be replaced? Repair is not a the proper solution if the issue is coming from the manufacturer.

Hello @userNQfkKtvScQ,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I can certainly understand the frustrations this has caused you. If you don't mind sending a private message providing the full model code and IMEI so I can look into your warranty status. Sounds like you may need service. http://bit.ly/2GGYul4

I restarted my phone in safe mode, then back to regular mode, and it seems to have fixed the issue at the moment.

Same issue here, the camera is buzzing past 2X zoom and is impossible to use live focus, this happens only with camera app, not a problem when I zoom with 3rd party apps

I'm from Indonesia and have the same problem with my note 9 too !

Suddenly today when I used camera and zoomed it. The motor buzzing so loud, focusing become slower when use zoom, and I can feel the vibration when hold it.

I hope samsung improve their quality because note 9 is their one of the great flagship phone and must worth with the price too (because it's expensive)

Hi I bought my note 9 just before last Christmas, whenever I zoom in using video mode my camera starts buzzing like an angry wasp is stuck in there and the screen goes all wavy like looking at something on a really hot day?
