Overview
What this part is
The front camera on the Galaxy A50 sits behind the small cut-out in the screen. It is used for selfies, video calls and face recognition. A drop or liquid can leave it black, blurry or showing a camera error.
Before you order, clean the screen over the lens and restart the phone. If the selfie camera still fails while the rear camera works, the front camera module is the usual fix. It plugs into the main board with a small connector.

Professional installation
How a technician fits this part
- Power the phone off and remove the SIM tray.
- Warm the back cover edges and lift it off carefully with a thin pick.
- Remove the screws and plastic cover plate, then disconnect the battery before anything else.
- Remove the cover plate over the main board and unplug the old front camera.
- Fit the new camera in the same seat, lined up with the screen cut-out, and plug it in.
- Reconnect the battery and test photos and video on the front camera before closing.
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 Galaxy A50?
Yes, if Settings › About phone shows Galaxy A50 (model SM-A505F). It does not fit the Galaxy A50s or Galaxy A51.
Does it fit the Galaxy A50s?
No. The Galaxy A50s is a different phone and its parts are not the same. Check the model name in Settings › About phone before you order.
Will face recognition work?
Face recognition uses the front camera. After fitting, test it and register your face again if needed.
Is it made by Samsung?
No. It is a brand new, OEM-quality front camera made to fit the Samsung Galaxy A50, and it is tested before dispatch.
Should I fit it myself?
We recommend professional installation. The Galaxy A50 must be opened with heat and new adhesive, and the battery must be disconnected safely.
