Pixel 9 Pro condensation in camera lens - eviltoast

Soooo… I’ve never had this issue on any other phone before. Is it normal to get condensation inside the camera lense (wide angle and telephoto)?

it’s dried out now, but I can see spots on the inside of the lense now that the water is gone, I can only imagine this getting worse over time, affecting quality. is this worth an RMA?

    Now that I think about it it is a third microphone. When they came out there were many posts of S20Us’ and note20Us’ camera glasses spontaneously shattering and the consensus from what I read was sudden pressure change. The same thing happened to my previous phone while in my locker (galaxy c9 pro with a single small camera and no hole), so it sounded plausible. And it’s also believable that water doesn’t go in from surface tension alone since the hole is really small

    Regardless I forgot that that it was supposed to be a microphone while posting my comments so nevermind

    Edit: also phones do normalise air pressure, just get a barometer app and squeeze the phone
