I just bought an iPhone 16 a week ago and whenever I charge my phone, I get electric shock from the camera button it’s very disturbing and painful. What is the issue????
Yes, I was experiencing electric shocks from the camera button and body initially just tingling, but it eventually became quite unsafe. I tried changing chargers, wires, and accessories, but nothing worked. The real issue turned out to be improper grounding (earthing) in my home. Once an electrician checked and fixed the earthing and electrical lines, the shocks stopped completely.
I highly recommend getting your home’s grounding checked if you’re facing similar issues. It might not seem serious at first, but poor grounding can damage your devices over time. Better to be safe and address it early.

I bought my phone 4 days ago, and I’m facing the exact same problem.
facing the same problem with my 16 pro max.
While on charging iphone 16 pro get electric shok
Several months ago I got shocked also however it was when changing my Iphone 16 case. I am now super sensitive to any WiFi and have experience random pains since.
I also got shocked while charging my iphone 16 with the charger that came with the macbook air and cable that came in the box with the iphone. The shock occurs while touching the camera button.
My iPhone 16 Pro Max’s Camera Control Button has a Ground (Electrical Shock) once I use it without slippers while charging. Can apple support team fix this?
I have the same issue, it actually hurts. Im getting shocked from the camera button. I’m using only apple cables and chargers, this has never happened before until I got the 16 pro
I have been shocked by the metal rings around the camera lenses when they made contact with my skin as well as the camera button quiet a hard shock it was painful each time
It’s been months since I purchased my iPhone 16, and I've noticed that every time I charge it, I get an electrical shock from the camera button. What can be done about this issue?
