The manufacturer's own module. On phones that calibrate the camera to the board this is the tier least likely to produce a notice in settings.
Priced at the counterA back camera that will not focus, will not open, rattles or shoots through cracked glass, replaced and tested before it goes back.
Includes the part, fitting, testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT included, and confirmed with you before anything is opened.

The Pixel 9 Pro XL arrived in 2024, with a 6.8 inch Super Actua LTPO OLED display and the Google Tensor G4 chip. It charges over USB-C and it unlocks with a fingerprint reader under the display. It is rated IP68. The big Pro, with three cameras in the full-width bar and a polished metal frame with flat sides.
Cameras are the repair where software and hardware look most alike from the outside, so it is worth checking two things before booking.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
Where Google supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Google certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.
You will not find work on the bill you did not agree to. If something else shows up while the phone is open, we stop and ask rather than deciding for you.
If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.
Cameras are modules rather than tuned panels, so the tier gap is narrower than it is on a screen.
Original or manufacturer-grade part
The manufacturer's own module. On phones that calibrate the camera to the board this is the tier least likely to produce a notice in settings.
Priced at the counterPremium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification and tested before fitting. On an older phone this is usually the sensible call.
Priced at the counterThe €190 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
Check whether it is the lens cover glass rather than the module first. That is a different and much cheaper part, and half the blurry cameras that come in here need it rather than a camera.
Two minutes online, or straight in the door at 4 Richmond Road. The more you can say about when it started, the faster we get to the cause.
Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.
You get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.
Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.
We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.
Pick it up from Richmond Road or have it couriered back across Dublin. Either way it carries the 360-day warranty.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Wide, ultra wide and telephoto where fitted, because replacing one can disturb the others.
Checked in video, since that is what most people notice when it is wrong.
A module can focus perfectly at arm's length and never lock at two metres.
Recorded while walking, because that is the only way a failing stabiliser shows itself.
We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.
The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.
Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.
€190, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.
Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
It can be. Focus motors fail on their own, and moisture gets behind a lens without the phone ever being submerged. It is worth a free diagnostic before you pay for a part.
Look at the glass over the lens in bright light at an angle. Cracks and deep scratches show clearly, and where they are there that is almost always the cause. The two are different parts at different prices and we confirm which before ordering.
No. Polishing removes material and leaves the glass optically worse than the scratch did. Replacing the cover glass is the proper fix and it is not expensive.
A camera repair does not touch storage, so nothing already on the phone is at risk.
Genuine service parts where they exist for the model, and premium aftermarket where they do not. You are told which one before you agree to the repair.

Excellent experience with the team in imend. My husband 50th birthday present was a phone charger and holder for your car and it wouldn't stay attached to his Audi dash. The guys in imend put two devices together to get it working. Very happy Hubbie and wife- lovely guys to work with and they even threw in a birthday charging gift.
