Bonafide Hardware - Replacement Part for Samsung Camera Glass Lens Note 8 Glass Only

i have had this installed on my phone for a while now. i liked how it looked, price, and ease on instillation. i noticed right away that my camera wouldn't focus . i pulled it off and tried again and for while the camera worked properly. today during my kids play my camera wouldn't focus again. :( to make matters worse i dropped my phone into water. it got behind the glass so i had to pull it off again. (i realize that water probably got under because i had puled it off once before ) this time i broke the lass and i have to replace it. im going to look at a different replacement piece of glass this time. if the same issues happen again with new glass ill update this review.

I was a bit skeptical when ordering this lens replacement. I was a victim of the known issue of the Note 8 camera lens breaking. The package arrived quickly thanks to Prime. I watched the intructional video provided from the seller. Literally 10 minutes later, the new lens was installed. There were no "special" tools required. I used a heat gun and the wife's tweezers. I leu of a heat gun, I'm sure a good hair dryer would also work fine. You just flip the phone over, heat up the affected lens cover and pull the broken glass out with tweezers. Mine did come out in various size pieces. As long as you keep away from the camera, which is easy to do, and make sure you tap out any remaning broken shards, you'll be fine. The new lens was a good tight fit. It was high quality GLASS and did not have any fingerprints on the glass. Although I would check before install regardess as any fingerprints or smudges would be easy to remove. It comes with adhesive already on it so after the broke lens is out, you literally just drop this in place. I was pleasantly surprised when finished. I'm unable to tell the glass was ever broke. I highly recommend this seller if you're facing the same situation. Also, I bought this item, it was not given to me for a review. I have no affiliation with the seller. I'm just a longtime Prime member that leaves an honest review to help another shopper.

Screen broke in my pocket with my keys. So i called sprint to find out if they could still fix both the main screen and the small camara glass on the back side.When they found out that both were broken they told me that i had to pay $250 deductable to be able to get another note 8 through the insuarance.I thought that was ridiculous and i started doing reseach on youtube and found out that this little glass was very cheap to replace and extremely easy to bbn install.So i relplaced the little glass and took it to sprint so they could replace the main screen and everything cost me around$50 and in return i got my Cellphone back brand new.So yes its very worth the money

Looks brand new! This was a hail Mary after dropping the phone and catching this screen at just the right angle to smash it! This was awesome, easy to use and had a much better outcome than imagined. Just lucky the camera behind this screen wasn't damaged. Can't even tell it was replaced!

I just upgraded my phone and couldn't trade in my old one with this being damaged. Install this was easy and made the old phone look great. I would recommend this product.

After taking off the original broken glass, which was surprisingly easier than I thought would be, this glass was very simple to place on. The fit was perfect and the adhesive seems good quality. Time will tell. I would definitely recommend having it in place right before applying any pressure. The glass itself seems much more durable than the manufacturers glass. Wish they used the same gorilla glass on camera as they use on screen.My only problem with the replacement that was shipped was there were a few scratches on it. Luckily They were only small and none in front of lens. Only on black part. Little disappointing but no deal breaker. I also wish it was shipped with some kind of protective backing. Be careful not to get fingerprints under glass. Luckily I had no issue and my camera is back to taking beautiful pictures.

After inquiring about having my Note 8 camera lens repaired locally, I decided to try this product to save myself the $60 the local repair shop wanted. They actually wouldn't even replace just the lens insert. They said the entire back cover had to be replaced if they do the repair. Nope. $60 vs $8 is a no brainer. I usually repair every thing else around here, a cell phone camera lens can't be hard. I was right.Patience is key here. Making sure all this tiny shards of broken lens are removed as well as the old adhesive will make or break the process. I took my sweet time, getting in no hurry whatsoever. I think it took 20ish minutes total. You would never know the original lens was ever broken. Phone looks new again. Camera function still works perfectly.

Apparently Amazon didn't like my first review so you know where you can stick it.5 star all the way. Service, price and quality.I still rock the note8 and the replacement glass was a perfect fit, looks OEM.To change, SIMPLE, I use a GREEN liquid to soften the glue cuz I don't want to overheat the phone. Then blow it off with air from a can cuz you don't want to contaminate your lenses. Then apply the new glass.Took maybe 20-30 mins and done. I'd still trust it underwater the seal looked pretty right to me.

In addition to buying the replacement part I also picked up some very fine tweezers for small electronic parts as recomend by a video I watched. This part fits perfect, I've bought and installed it twice now and both time were quick and easy. I should add I didn't have to buy it twice due to lack of quality I'm just extremely hard on phones and smashed the glass off the camera while at work with my phone in my pocket.... two times now.

Fit exactly perfect no question and easy to replace !
