Overview
What this part is
The cameras on the back of the iPhone 16 / 16 Plus sit behind small glass covers set into the rear housing. A drop can crack or chip this glass, which lets in dust and causes blurry, hazy or flared photos even when the cameras themselves are fine.
This part replaces that cover glass only. The old glass is removed and the new glass is bonded in its place. If photos are still blurry through clean, undamaged glass, or a camera will not open at all, the fault is in the camera module and this part will not fix it.

Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the phone off and remove any case.
- Gently warm the camera area to soften the adhesive holding the old lens glass.
- Lift out the broken glass piece by piece, taking care not to touch or scratch the camera below.
- Clean the recess of old adhesive and glass fragments, and clear any dust with a blower.
- Fit the new lens glass with fresh adhesive and press it evenly into place.
- Open the camera app and check every lens for clear, sharp photos.
Check that the part matches the device before fitting it or removing any adhesive backing. Once a part has been fitted, it cannot be returned for a change of mind. Faulty parts are always covered.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Will this fit my iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Plus?
Yes, if Settings › General › About shows iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Plus. It fits model numbers A3081, A3286, A3287, A3288, A3082, A3289, A3290 and A3291. It does not fit the iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 15 or any other model.
Does it fit the iPhone 16 Pro?
No. The iPhone 16 Pro has three rear cameras and a different camera bump. This lens glass is for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus only.
Is this the whole camera?
No. This is the lens glass only, the clear cover over the iPhone 16 / 16 Plus rear cameras. If the camera itself is faulty, you need a rear camera module instead.
Is it made by Apple?
No. It is a brand new, OEM-quality rear camera lens glass made to fit the iPhone 16 / 16 Plus, and every part is tested before dispatch.
Should I fit it myself?
We recommend professional installation. Broken lens glass is sharp and fragile, and one slip can scratch the camera module underneath. A repair shop can do this quickly.
How quickly will it arrive?
