Does the case protect the camera lens when you lay the phone down on its back?

Yes. The case is thin enough to be aesthetically pleasing, but it's raised enough to protect the camera lens when you set it down.

Yes, the case is raised so when you lay it on it's back the case is touching the surface not the camera.

The lens is not covered but because the thickness (approx. 1/8 inch) of the case and the opening for the lens it does not touch any surface.

No, it does not. The case has a nice oval hole on the back side so the camera and flash are not covered.

yes, and you should keep it on all the time if you are not using it. Hit case is awesome, but the lens can get scratched if you place it down on the side of the lens.

No it won't but I like mine with the camera lens on the bottom facing out. I love this case!

No, the case and the phone are exactly in the same plane, so when it is facing down, both touch the ground (it does not protect the Iphone at all, but it is very thin and delicate)

Yes. It is thick enough on the front to prevent the screen from touching anything when laying flat on the table. The back is also raised in the same fashion which prevent the camera lens from being scratched. Adds a little bulk but it's worth the protection on this minimal case.

no. there is a decent sized cut out around the lens. its a super awesome case. which considering that i have friends with otter boxes and other "armour" cases, mine has caused no issues, and has lasted longer than theirs!

There's no raised groove on the camera cut, so the lens can easily get scratched if it's not laid on a flat surface. Which is a bit of a downside for this case. The flash part is more protected than the camera lol, it's kinda weird. Yes it does have a high enough lip to protect the screen from being scratched if laid facing down.

From what I can tell the outer covering is not the lens, but rather a UV filter of some sort. The lens itself is far behind the outer covering. So the lens is protected by default. I don't know the camera (yet) but I have been researching it a great deal and am knowledgeable about cameras.

On the plus side, the lens is always protected. On the minus side, if you drop the camera and happen to chip the hardened glass lens cover, you're pretty much screwed. (This is the voice of experience talking).

No, it doesn't. I suggest buying a regular case to protect the rear camera's lens, even the cheapest models sold here on Amazon will be able to do that.

yes, protects the camera, but the case is slicker than the stock back cover, don't really care for it

The lens is exposed but the thickness of the case is enough to protect it from scratches.

Hi, no need to take the back of the phone. This looks like a case that attaches to the back of the phone and the thread for the lens is embedded in that. it's something you can keep on the phone at all times if you wish, it offers some protection too. hope this helps.

No it does not. My husband had to cut a hole in it with an x-acto knife to allow for use of the rear-facing camera without having to remove the case.

Its your basic protection. Ive dropped my phone before using this case and it was fine. The only problem is the camera on the back is lacking that extra protection.

Hello Alex, The screen protector does not cover/protect the camera lens on the rear of the phone because it will distort the clarity and images of your photos. The purpose of the screen protector is to protect your device from scratches and reduce fingerprint smudges. Have a lovely day~
