Typical camera glass damage on the OnePlus 5
- Dust collects between the broken protective glass and the lens — dark spots on every photo
- Night shots show diffusion rings around light sources that weren't there before the glass damage
- Video footage looks blurry and shows colour fringing — the cracked glass diffracts the wavelengths
- The flash reflex lights up the glass itself and overexposes the subject
- When zooming, the blur gets more extreme — scratches in the glass act like lens flare at telephoto scale
- The OnePlus 5 camera glass shows a clear spider-web pattern after a fall onto hard tiles
- Every photo with the 16 MP main camera has a milky softening effect — especially visible against the light
How does the OnePlus 5 camera glass swap work?
- Break analysis on the OnePlus 5
Distinguishing between surface glass breakage and a lens defect via macro shot. The OnePlus 5 usually shows only glass breakage — underneath, the IMX398 dual camera is intact.
- Preparing the old glass
The adhesive edge is evenly warmed and carefully lifted with a suction cup. No scratches on the frame, no leverage force on the lens beneath.
- Cleaning the adhesive frame
Old adhesive residue is removed from the frame with isopropanol and a plastic spatula. A clean bonding surface is the prerequisite for the new UV adhesive.
- Applying the bond layer
The protective pane is coated with UV adhesive all around — the viewing area over the lens stays completely clear.
- Mounting the glass lens cover
Original-compatible replacement glass (9H hardness, AR-coated) is fitted — gap-free and flush with the housing edge.
- Final check
UV curing (3 minutes), then test photos with the main, ultra-wide and telephoto lens. Autofocus speed is checked with a comparison measurement.
Have the OnePlus 5 protective glass replaced — price and technique
Many workshops sell a complete module swap for an OnePlus 5 camera defect for 180 to 250 €. That is overpriced. In most cases only the protective glass is broken, while the lens and sensor underneath are undamaged. On the dual setup the camera glass covers both lenses — the main and secondary lens. The 16 MP sensor with IMX398 dual camera is mechanically separate from the glass.
Vienna fixed price 19.90 €. You get: new, crack-free protective glass, precise UV adhesive application (no bleed into the viewing area), UV curing under a lab lamp, a detailed photo check with main, ultra-wide and macro focus where available. 6 months warranty on the installation.
More damage on the same device? The OnePlus 5 overview shows all possible repairs — glass plus battery plus screen can be combined in a single appointment. Brand overview: OnePlus repair Vienna. The OnePlus 5 has been in the field since 2017, replacement glasses are still readily available as aftermarket parts — original ones are no longer produced.
UV adhesive technique vs. cheap tape — why it matters
Cheap tape adhesive holds maybe 2 months — then the edges come loose and moisture gets in. Reparo uses UV-curing optical adhesive (Loctite 3494), which stays permanently transparent and seals like the original factory seal. That is the reason for the 6-month warranty — inferior adhesives wouldn't manage it.
Frequently asked questions about the OnePlus 5 camera glass swap
OnePlus 5 camera glass repair in Vienna — what does the swap cost?
The camera glass swap for the OnePlus 5 costs a fixed 19.90 € at Reparo in Vienna. Included: precisely fitted replacement pane, UV adhesive, curing, photo quality test with all lenses, 6 months warranty. Diagnostic check 25 EUR, waived on repair.
What does it cost to have the camera glass replaced on the OnePlus 5?
19.90 € fixed price at Reparo — whether Nord line or flagship. Included are replacement glass with 9H hardness, lab-grade UV adhesive, curing under a 405 nm lamp and detailed photo tests. No hidden surcharges.
Why only 19.90 € — other workshops charge 150 € or more?
Other shops often swap the complete camera module — for the OnePlus 5 that costs 180–250 €. Reparo does the analysis first: if only the protective glass is broken (90 % of cases), the single swap for 19.90 € is enough. We only replace the complete module if the lens or sensor is damaged.
Does the OnePlus 5 camera glass fixed price include all costs?
Yes. 19.90 € covers the replacement pane, UV adhesive, curing, photo quality test and the warranty. Pickup service in Vienna is included, send-in shipping from the provinces is arranged separately (insured outbound and return shipping).
Does the OnePlus 5 camera glass cover one or more lenses?
The OnePlus 5 has a shared protective glass for the main and secondary lens. During the swap both viewing windows are renewed at the same time — no extra cost.
From which model year are replacement glasses for the OnePlus 5 still available?
For the OnePlus 5 (built in 2017) aftermarket replacement glasses are in stock — supply is secured at least until 2024. Original spare parts are not sold publicly by OnePlus, but the glasses we use are identical in transmission, hardness and fit.
How long does the OnePlus 5 camera glass swap take?
45–60 minutes of pure working time plus 3 minutes of UV curing. With Vienna pickup service usually back the same business day, at the latest the next day. When sending in from the provinces the total duration is 3 business days including outbound and return shipping.
Does OxygenOS on the OnePlus 5 stay unchanged after the camera glass swap?
Yes, fully. We don't open the mainboard, read no storage, drain no battery. OxygenOS, all apps, photos, OnePlus account, alert slider mode and Google login stay exactly as before the repair.
How does the pickup service work for the OnePlus 5 camera glass swap?
Online booking with a preferred time slot between 9 and 18:00, the courier comes by in person in Vienna, your OnePlus 5 travels to our workshop, after 45–60 minutes the glass swap is done, return usually the same day. No trip for you.
Sending in from the provinces — how does it work for the OnePlus 5?
You send us a short message, we send a padded shipping box. Your OnePlus 5 travels insured to us, the repair runs the next business day, return shipping also insured — total duration from drop-off usually 3 business days.
Can I simply drop off my OnePlus 5 for the camera glass swap in Vienna?
No, Reparo has no customer access — we are a pure workshop, without a shop floor. You book an appointment online, the courier picks up the OnePlus 5 in Vienna or you send it in. That keeps prices low and turnaround times short.
Will photos or data be lost on the OnePlus 5 during the camera glass swap?
No, impossible. The work takes place only on the outside of the camera — mainboard, storage, OxygenOS and OnePlus account stay completely untouched. We still recommend a backup, but only as standard caution.
Is the glass swap on the OnePlus 5 worth it, or better a new device?
19.90 € against 400–800 € for a new mid-range or flagship OnePlus. As long as the display, battery and mainboard are healthy, the glass swap is by far the smartest choice. The OnePlus 5 runs like new afterwards.
What warranty does Reparo give on the OnePlus 5 camera glass swap?
6 months from installation. If the glass comes loose within that time or fogging appears under the protective glass (adhesive failure), we repair it free of charge — no second diagnostic fee, no questions asked.
Original or aftermarket — which glass goes into the OnePlus 5?
Original spare parts are not sold on the open market by OnePlus. We use high-quality aftermarket glasses — 9H hardness identical to the original, anti-reflective coating, precisely cut for the OnePlus 5. In transmission and feel there is no noticeable difference from the factory glass.
