The glass that covers the back camera on my brand new iPhone 13 crack today while sitting in my pocket. The lens of the camera is fine, this is only the glass cover.

I tried looking up videos to repair this, but every iPhone 13 repair video I found shows a different glass cover. They all have a solid piece of glass that covers the entire back side of the phone with cut outs for the lenses and separate glass where each lens sits. My phone doesn’t have this, It’s a solid glass piece which you can see in the photo.

Does anyone know where I can buy these parts and have tips and how to fix this myself?

This is a standard iPhone 13.

    1. That is a refurb or secondhand iPhone. It is not new, because
    2. Apple doesn’t add a lens protector to the camera array the back and array housing are one solid piece and
    3. That is add-on placed by the previous owner.

    So if the iPhone is just new-to-you, then you can remove that and order another from Amazon if you’re inclined. I prefer individual covers as a one-piece can transfer the force of impact and crack your actual iPhone back glass.

    If Verizon claimed this was unsold stock, I’d have an angry word with them.
