Love the phone, wish it had a lens protector on the back cover. Anyone cover the lens with a skin/protector and not have any quality issues?

Can anyone confirm what the Note's main camera lens cover material is made of? Plastic, glass, gorilla glass?
I am considering getting a Note, but my current HTC Desire has a plastic lens cover which gets scuffed and scratched easily degrading the photo quality greatly.
I'd like my next phone to have a tough, scratch resistant lens cover.
As far as I know the lens is just ordinary plastic. If I were you I'd get a silicone skin to prevent scratches from rough surfaces I don't have any scratches on my lens yet but I handle my phone pretty careful and I don't ever put it together with my keys in my pocket.

Not sure if anyone has concern about scratching the camera lens, but I don't like taking chances when there is such an easy solution.
I cut down a screen protector to a diameter a little larger than the lens so that all edges remained under the battery cover. I placed the screen protector over the lens with the battery cover off, then reinstalled the cover over top.
Presto: lens protected. Has no effect on picture and movie quality and adds a bit of peace of mind.
I had first tried this over the battery cover, but under a cheap case I had, but it didn't fit against the lens front since the lens is slightly recessed below the cover.
I simply used the throwaway shipping screen protector the phone with and cut it down, but you could use any cheap screen protector. (ebay: about $1)
Note: Be sure to use a plain, clear screen protector. tinted/anti-glare, or others may change your picture quality.

Hey Just grabbed a Gold S5. Sexy as hell. Haters be dammed.
I heard about pretty wide spread issues of camera lens cracking due to the protruding lens. Anyone know of a protector I could use just for the lens?
I'm getting a TA tempered glass screen protector so something similar would be great, but that doesn't affect picture quality.
Thanks!
Check out the Nillkin tempered glass screen protector, it has 2pcs lens protector included.
So I got an X727 this past Thursday, and I accidentally set it on a table too hard with the stock case on and, well, the camera lens cracked. It's not across the sensor, but I know it's a matter of time before it spreads and the rear camera becomes unusable.
How difficult is it to replace the rear camera lens? Where can I find a replacement?
Thank you in advance ?
My camera lens has a crack across the sensor now; when aiming towards light reflections of said light reflect all across the image.
I'm desperate, someone please help!
Figured out that the lens can be replaced without removing the rear housing.
Still, though, where can I find replacement lenses?
Will a tempered glass camera lens protector be suitable as a replacement lens?

I've bought a replacement lens cover for the rear camera on my V20. It came with self-adhesive, but the adhesive isn't good enough and it keeps falling off. I really don't want to use superglue to secure it. Can anyone recommend a good alternative which will keep it in place, but which won't be a pain in the neck if the lens cover gets smashed again and needs to be replaced?
