iPhone 15 Series Camera Modules

Buying camera modules in bulk (iPhone 15 Pro Max to iPhone 15)

A camera module has to match on three levels at once — sensor, autofocus system and connector layout — and a mismatch on any one means it will not work even if it fits. About one job in three blamed on the camera traces back to the flex cable or the software, not the module. A module that passes a photo test can still fail in a third-party app, so the compatibility check belongs in the QC step. The iPhone 15 Pro Max module matches on three counts: sensor, AF and connector. Any one out of step reads as a dead camera.

A share of modules returned as faulty test perfectly on the bench, which is why photographing the fault before removal saves both sides a dispute.

Specs and checks that matter

• Misdiagnosis: A share of "camera faults" are actually flex or software problems, not the module
• Grading: Modules are graded A, B or C, and the grade is stated
• Connector types: ZIF and board-to-board connectors are not interchangeable
• Bench test: Focus and stabilisation are checked on a handset before a lot ships
• Three-way match: Sensor, autofocus and connector all have to match the handset — one mismatch reads as a fault

Buyer questions

What testing is done?

Focus, stabilisation and connector seating are tested on each module before shipping.

How do I know it will fit?

The sensor, autofocus and connector must all match the handset — send the model and we confirm the exact module.

Why are photos blurry after a new module?

Most often focus calibration or lens alignment; dust on the sensor or a firmware mismatch can mimic it.

How do you QC camera modules?

Focus test across the batch, a test photo per lot, connector-pin inspection and anti-static packing.
