iPhone 15 Pro Max Rear Cameras Replacement

If your pictures and videos are fuzzy, your videos are noisy, or your cameras have trouble focusing, they might need to be replaced.
You'll need replacement screen adhesive to complete this repair.
Note: Due to Apple's parts pairing restrictions, on iOS 17.6 and earlier, you may receive warnings regarding replacement rear cameras, although they'll still function normally. On iOS 18 and newer, calibrate genuine camera modules using Apple's Repair Assistant.
