Galaxy S Series Back Camera

Rear camera modules for the Galaxy S Series

A rear camera fails in one of three ways: it will not focus, it rattles because the stabilisation mechanism was damaged in a drop, or it shows nothing. On a Galaxy S Series the first two are almost always physical damage rather than software.

Buying in New Zealand

Everything here is held in New Zealand rather than ordered in per sale, so a repair booked in the morning is not waiting on offshore freight. Everything else for this range is under Samsung Galaxy S Series Spare Parts. Fitting can be booked through the repairs service.

Orders placed before the 2pm cut-off dispatch the same working day and reach most New Zealand addresses overnight.

Questions answered

My photos are hazy but it focuses. What is that?

Usually a scratched outer lens cover rather than the module. Replacing the cover is far cheaper and normally solves it.

Why does the camera rattle?

The stabilisation mechanism has been damaged, normally by a drop. That needs the module replaced rather than repaired.
