May I ask you a question please as I’m not sure about this, I’ve got a 14 Pro Max, it looks like there may be a protective film on the camera lenses, may be, but I’m not sure! Did you have anything on the lenses of your 14 Pro Max when you unboxed it please? Cheers 🇬🇧❤️

I Winded Up Using A Small Knife, Slowly Lifting It Up After Letting A Hot Towel Sit Over It, Came Off Very Easy. Obviously Its Risky But If You Have Steady Hands, Nothing To Worry About! Glad To Have Them Off! Thanks For The Great Vid!

[@AMIRBENDABI]

Thanks for these insights, brother. And yeah, you need to have steady hands when removing those lenses.

[@teodoramladenova6087]

I bought these protectors today, put them on only one camera and regretted it terribly. I was wondering how to remove it and worried. With this method I succeeded, you helped me a lot! Great thanks a lot! Do not wear such protectors! Unique video, easy, fast, affordable! Thanks!❤️

Basically, just removing those camera lens protectors. Hope this helps.

[@elizegalvez350]

Is back protector for 13 pro max worth or a must?

[@AMIRBENDABI]

Good question: I would say a must. First of all, the iPhone 13 Pro is a quite expensive phone, and I assume you want to protect it from scratches and dents.

[@KipPiper]

Help! The rings came off, but the plastic film is still attached to my lenses. I’ve tried the hairdryer technique and they will not come off. Any other suggestions? TIA!

[@VinayKumar-fm6oc]

Which tools are used sir

[@AMIRBENDABI]

Hi Vinay, in this video I use tweezers. But you can also remove these camera lens protectors with a floss, or so I've been told.

[@arthurma2831]

Dental floss really works and risk free

[@cosmooooooooo]

Quick correction, the lenses are NOT made of sapphire, they contain a very very small portion, which is a marketing trick and probably +10% more durability.

[@AMIRBENDABI]

True. That was a mistake on my part. Thanks for the correction, Cosmo!

[@roudysmusic]

Can i put them back?

[@makmamii]

Okay so how do I protect my lens then I actually put these on because one of my camera lens broke and I didn’t want moisture or water to get in it so telling people they don’t break easy is a misconception. That case isn’t covering the actual lens. Great video tho!

[@AMIRBENDABI]

Hi Mak, thanks for this insight. I'm really sorry to hear that your iPhone's lens got broken. How did this happen? A great solution to protect this lens is by getting yourself an all-in-one iPhone case with camera protection (the one with a slider). Then, if you want to use your iPhone's camera you just have to slide that protection area open.

[@justjack3075]

They are not pure sapphire

[@neanandennasvlog1111]

Thank you so much for this. I’m having panic attacks just by looking at it stuck.

[@georgemazari5416]

Nice I have a portable steamer. Folded a towel and payed it over. Let the steam push through the towel. Quick and easy.

A thread is the safest tool to remove camera lenses just making sure you won’t slip and scratch the camera bump.

[@lizettekristine6360]

Mine was a clear square that covers the entire camera bump on the iphone 11. I have no idea how to remove it now. (BTW, in the States, we call those tweezers. ;-D)

Yeah, that was so embarrassing. I found out later on 😅. Thanks for watching and commenting brother.

Very risky way to remove. You might scratch the glass on the phone. Alternative way is to use dental floss to remove them

[@AMIRBENDABI]

It wasn't risky since you do have a good grip on that tweezer. But this dental floss is not a bad idea. Thanks for sharing it!

Hi! How to use the dental floss to remove these kind of protector?

@@Itsjustreirei insert the floss between the gap, and treat it like u are flossing your teeth to cut through the adhesives

Why are you so against these camera lenses protectors? Do they distort camera quality?

[@Arsenic840]

I just puts these camera covers on my iPhone 15 pro max and after 5 minutes i watched this video and took these covers off.

[@sanfury]

i pulled them with my teeth 😂😂😂😂

[@xLOVExGODx]

If you have the ability to use your fingernail then I would suggest to do that instead of any other technique. You simply lift with your fingernail underneath the lens protector and that will pop that off pretty easily.
I was very tempted to use tweezers but the possibility of scratching my phone was too high for me to risk. 👈

[@ACCENDlO]

I tried with my fingernail and almost broke it soo… take that as you will
i recommend the dental floss method i saw in another comment. I’m too much of a dumbass to you tweezers so i tried the dental floss and it worked really well. Idk if it has to do with the floss, but it didn’t leave any glue residue either, so i’m happy with the results
