Does anyone's Note 8 make a rattling noise when you shake It? It sounds like there's a tiny rock inside it.

Yes, but I only noticed it when I shook it after reading this. I officially have some concerns.

It's the camera stabilisation. all good and normal. if you open the camera app and shake, it will not rattle as much.

Hey @reirei, no fear needed here! As fellow member @dragonbait has already mentioned, it's due to the camera. The device supports a high speed shutter function that automatically focuses the camera. The sound you hear is the camera lens shutter moving inside the barrel and it's a normal sound. When you turn the camera on the sound will stop as it is actively focusing. Sometimes the device makes this sound when you vibrate or lightly shake the device. :)
