iPhone 16 Front Camera Repair

If selfies on your iPhone 16 come out soft, the front camera shows a black screen, or FaceTime freezes on your side of the call, the 12MP TrueDepth front camera has usually failed. It happens after a drop that flexes the top of the phone, and sometimes after moisture gets in around the earpiece. About the iPhone 16The iPhone 16 (2024) uses a 12MP TrueDepth front camera at the top of its 6.1-inch OLED display. It shares that space with the Face ID sensors, so the work is done carefully and Face ID is retested every time. The 16 was the first base iPhone with the Action button, and it added the Camera Control on the right side.

Common questionsWill Face ID still work after an iPhone 16 front camera repair?On the iPhone 16 the selfie camera sits in the same TrueDepth assembly as the Face ID sensors, and those sensors are paired to your phone. We keep your original Face ID components, replace only the camera, and confirm Face ID works before the phone goes back. Will my iPhone show an unknown part message?If the camera fitted is not a genuine Apple part, iOS can show Unknown Part in Settings > General > About > Parts and Service History. The notice does not stop you using the phone, and we test focus, Portrait mode and video calls before return. Ask us if you would rather have a genuine Apple camera. How do I check that my phone is an iPhone 16?Open Settings > General > About. The Model Name line should read iPhone 16. If it shows something else, pick that model's repair instead, or call us and we will point you to the right one. Questions before you order? Call 888-494-4349 or email support@ifixyouri.com.
