My wide angle lens has a crack in it and it affects image quality on the ultra wide lens.

Do I need a new phone or can it be fixed?

I'd want to pay someone to fix it.
 
If it's just the lens cover which is part of the back panel/glass and not actual camera module cracked then looks a relatively easy repair if YouTube anything to go by.

Replacement glass pieces only a few £ on the bay so imagine most independent phone shops should be able to do it relatively cheaply. Samsung would probably want to replace whole back cover so be pricey (£139), most independent shops should do that cheaper too.

I think it is just the lens cover. It's definitely a crack. Not a scratch.
 
OK.. So. Looks like it can be done.

I'll. Pay someone to do it though. Too much faff for me.

I was out today and used the UW camera. And it was OK. It's noticeable when the sun hits it at an angle. Then the crack creates a blur. Makes sense. But the camera itself Seems fine.

I'll see. If I can find a shop to do it!
