The glass that covers the back camera on my brand new iPhone 13 crack today while sitting in my pocket. The lens of the camera is fine, this is only the glass cover.
I tried looking up videos to repair this, but every iPhone 13 repair video I found shows a different glass cover. They all have a solid piece of glass that covers the entire back side of the phone with cut outs for the lenses and separate glass where each lens sits. My phone doesn’t have this, It’s a solid glass piece which you can see in the photo.
Does anyone know where I can buy these parts and have tips and how to fix this myself?
This is a standard iPhone 13.
Geez, some of these comments are snarky for no reason.
In the future, get a case with a raised edge around the cameras just for peace of mind. They are always “on sale” on Amazon for less than $30. I like them because they make the phone easier to grip and absorb any shock from when I drop my phone like 5x a week.
Get a cheap glass screen protector, too. People argue they’re unnecessary but I just like the extra security since I’m very clumsy. I never worry about my screen or glass backing cracking/scratching anymore, and it’ll get you more money at trade-in.
I recommend the Otterbox Symmetry series (not affiliate link). iPhones have gotten much hardier. You don’t need that cheap thing.
Thank you, I just purchased a case on Amazon with raised edges around the camera and I pulled off the lens cover. I miss my old pixel 5 that had the aluminum case with a matted back, I had that phone for 3 years and never needed a case :/
