iPhone 5 rear camera not focusing

the camera on my iPhone 5 does not focus properly after a distence of 10 cm from the objec. I searched up the problem and tried tapping the lens, palming the phone and carefully hitting it, but it did not fix the problem. I tried a settings reset and that did not work either. If I need to repair the camera, how much will it cost in Canadian dollars. Also when I tap to focus, the camera makes a buzzing noise.

iPhone 5, iOS 9.2.1, Silver 16 gb Rogers

Hi there Haibao123,


It sounds like you are hearing your phones camera as it tries to focus on something moderately close, and it never actually focuses. Combined with the troubleshooting you've done I would indeed say that your phone will need service.


According to the following page for Canadian support the repair price for an out of warranty repair for your device is $349:
