Product Description
This flex cable brings the front camera, the ambient light sensor, the proximity sensor and the top microphone together in one part. It is made for the iPhone 8 and the iPhone SE (2020), also known as the SE2, and it is the part to look at when several front-of-phone faults show up at once.
Typical symptoms are a blurry selfie camera, FaceTime problems, a screen that stays lit against your ear during calls, a silent top microphone or a proximity sensor that no longer responds. The iPhone 8 or SE 2020 has to be opened to reach it, and flex cables tear easily, so work slowly.
Key Features & Highlights
Compatibility
- iPhone 8: A1863, A1905, A1906
- iPhone SE 2020 (SE2): A2275, A2296, A2298
Signs Your Camera Module Needs Replacing
- The camera app shows a black screen or fails to open.
- Photos are blurry and focus hunts or never locks.
- Lines, spots or a purple tint appear in every photo.
- The phone reports the camera is unavailable after a drop or liquid exposure.
- Before replacing, clean the lens cover and check it is not the cracked lens glass causing the problem.
How to Check Your Model Number
On the iPhone go to Settings › General › About. The Model Name (for example "iPhone 13") is shown at the top; tap Model Number to see the A-number (for example A2633).
Specifications
- Test the part before final installation.
- Line up the proximity sensor carefully so the screen dims properly during calls.
- Replacement parts are model-specific — check that your device matches the model shown above before ordering.
- Professional fitting is recommended where the device has to be opened; flex cables and connectors are easily damaged.
- Test the part before sealing the device or applying new adhesive.
- If you are unsure which part you need, contact us with your model number before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which phones does this front camera flex suit?
It covers the iPhone 8 (A1863, A1905, A1906) and the iPhone SE 2020, also called SE2 (A2275, A2296, A2298). Match your model number before you order.
What is on this iPhone 8 / SE 2020 flex cable?
The iPhone 8 and SE 2020 flex carries the front camera, the light sensor, the proximity sensor and the top microphone as a single part.
Can this fix an iPhone 8 screen that will not turn off during calls?
The proximity sensor that handles screen dimming is part of this iPhone 8 / SE 2020 flex, so it suits that fault when the sensor is the cause. Align the sensor properly when you fit it.
Does fitting it affect Touch ID on an iPhone 8?
No. The Home button and Touch ID on the iPhone 8 or SE 2020 are not affected by this part.
Should I test it before closing up the iPhone SE 2020?
Yes. Connect the flex and check the camera, the sensors and the microphone before the iPhone 8 or SE 2020 is sealed again.
