    Nice job. These camera bumps really need to go though. Or at least build on something that protrudes like 1mm beyond the lens so that it’s not so easy to break.

    • @egg.samich
      @egg.samich 5 років тому

      Oğuz Çelik It depends on how bad the lens is damaged. Small hairline cracks shouldn’t impact the image quality. Anything worse probably will.

    I don't understand why the phone needed to be opened? You removed the glass from the outside

    • @RealWorldReview
      @RealWorldReview  5 років тому +1

      Because adding heat to the plastic cameras is a terrible thing to do. It's possible to do, but mainly for the experienced repair tech.

    • @Joshua-fr9fi
      @Joshua-fr9fi 5 років тому +1

      So if you removed without heat, would you still recommend taking the phone apart?
      For example, and I'm sure there a few different ways you could do it, but if you're replacing the glass then its probably safe to assume it's broken. If it's broken then you may able to get a chip out from the spider web fracture. If you get the chip out then you have an access point to begin prying up and removing further pieces?

    • @RealWorldReview
      @RealWorldReview  5 років тому

      You can, just make sure not to scratch the camera sensors when doing so.

    • @RealWorldReview

      In a way, yes and no. But the quick answer is yes, I would assume your warranty would be void after opening up the device.

    • @BillAnt
      @BillAnt 6 років тому +1

      I've read somewhere that the iPhone X has an electronic opening and liquid sensor which cannot be circumvented, and can be read by Apple diag software. The opening sensor is probably a magnetic/hal effect sensor which senses when the screen frame is opened.

    Okay BUT what if my back glass AND camera lens broke? Do I have to remove the entire ring/frame? How do I put that back on? :[

    • @RealWorldReview
      @RealWorldReview  6 років тому

      At that rate, I would recommend replacing the back frame of the phone all in one piece, but it is not a fun repair and is high risk. Personally, I would change just the camera lens and put a case or skin on the back of the phone. Repairing both is high risk for the person doing it (glass shards flying everywhere) and will take so long to repair.

  • @javiten1

    couldnt you do that without opening the whole phone? just asking. (i know this way you are not jeopardizing the camera). Thanks

    • @RealWorldReview
      @RealWorldReview  6 років тому +2

      Yeah you can, but the amount of heat might damage the camera sensors. Just be light with the heat and make sure to not scratch the sensor.

    • @linkster900
      @linkster900 6 років тому +1

      Real World Review It seems like your method is a lot safer whereas the method of just removing the glass without opening the phone keeps waterproofing, but the risk to screw up the camera is greater. What a pain

    • @RealWorldReview
      @RealWorldReview  6 років тому +3

      I have removed the glass before without issues, but these iPhone cameras are super temperamental, so even if you do the repair correctly, it could cause stuff like FaceID and Portrait mode to fail. So because of this I just take the camera out altogether lol
      Disclaimer, I doubt the phone is water resistant after the repair, regardless of how it is taken apart (but accidental drops should still be fine)

    • @maali5173
      @maali5173 3 роки тому

      I did this without taking the camera out but was unsuccessful as little pieces of dust got onto the camera lens!!!! It was impossible to clean the camera - pics had black dots everywhere!! So I would recommend this method as it’s a lot safer, although involves taking the screen off etc.

      Never waterproof, only water resistant. But I doubt the repair will keep water resistance, but breaking the glass probably kills the water resistance. Keep it out of water lol

    My phone was run over by a few cars, surprisingly the only damage to the phone is a shattered glass to the back camera. Everything in the phone works except for any camera features. The funny thing is that the back camera works when using facebook. Could the back camera be repaired and get the front camera working again?

      It never was waterproof to begin with though. There's an IP67 Protection but Apple doesn't cover liquid damage in the warranty (neither does Samsung), so you shouldn't really use your phone in water at all. Replacing the camera lens, back glass, or display will remove the IP67 Protection but even after that the phone is still water resistant to a certain level, and can still take some water splashes here and there.
