Just wanted to will the Detachable magnetic ring fit round the s3 camera : http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/cell-phone-lenses/
There is a contact page right here, just write them and ask for it. Or you could search for the photo lens dimensions of the iPhone and compare them to the lens of the S3..
I don't think they will fit, if you look at the magnetic sticker, it's round and so it would overlap the edges of our camera lens not giving it enough space to stick to and probably fall off.
Shame because these look amazing, but that being said, it probably wouldn't be hard to cut a piece of magnetic strip to fit if your phone if you had the lenses available.
I'm tempted to buy a set to give it a go.

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.

Galaxy S3 on Verizon: Love the network, hate the bootloader..
Does anyone know where i can get a macro lens that fits the nexus 4

I bought this one, its magnetic and it supposed to stick to a metal ring you stick on your phone, but actually theres some metal near the camera and it automatically sticks to the phone no metal ring needed, given you dont have a case on, works well with the LG bumper.
For you photo buffs out there who are interested in adding magnetic detachable lenses to your Note 4 should be aware that magnets will interfere and possibly damage the OIS mechanism. Any magnet near the lens will cause the lens to move in the direction of the magnet and the phone will be unable to focus properly. Even with OIS off your lens will attempt to focus on an object wbut will be unable to due to the pull from the magnet.
I happen to have a 3 in 1 kit from my galaxy S4 that has the macro, wide angle, and fish eye lenses and was wondering if the magnets would effect the lens. Sure enough it does. So what are your options? You can get the clip on style which i dont like that much because it puts pressure on the screen and causes it to change focus points. You can also get a housing with the screw in type lens that contains no magnets. As of this post there is not one made for the note 4 yet but there is one for the note 3.
This maybe useful info for some who are unaware of the workings of OIS. Dont waste your money on the magnetic detachable type.

Or maybe an industrious 3D printer owner such as my self who also just happens to have Note 4 might come up with something.
I may be the only one that did not know this, but I thought that I would mention it just in case. There is a protective film on the Note 4 rear camera. In my case, I did not see it while using the camera for over 2 weeks. The film is hard to peel off because the edges of the film are inside the frame and it is very hard to get your fingernail under it. I was not really sure if the film was there or not. I tilted the back so that the light glare was shown. I noticed that the surface of the camera was not shiny and there were tiny scratches on it. After picking at it with my fingernail, it finally peeled off and all is well.
It has a hole in it so it doesn't actually cover the lens. I'm not sure what purpose it serves, but I've left mine in place.
Yes, I see it now. Obviously does not affect picture quality. I had peeled all the other film off the camera so this is just the last.
Is there a place where we can order replacement film?
I just left mine there. No idea what its for.
That little guy...
It's there to protect the camera lens. You can keep it on since it doesn't interfere with the lens but it's intended to be removed like the rest of the protective film.
Lol. This has been on every Galaxy phone I've bought. It's just the shipping plastic like around the sides of the phone lmao ? ? ?
Does anyone have any suggestions for a video showing the safest way to remove the glass once you've heated it? I've looked at a few video's on youtube but they either show someone taking out glass fragments piece by piece or one guy who attacks his poor phone with a spudger and looks like he's trying to rip it to pieces!
What should I look out for when it comes to finding a replacement unit? Is it better to buy the ones with the adhesive already attached or should I get one where the adhesive comes separately to the glass and use the glass I already have? I've seen some reviews where people complain about the new glass resulting in hazy images. Mine is fine on the main camera, but the wide lens is full of dust!
I'm in the UK and this looks like a pretty solid item and at that price, if it's no good I can soon get another.
Had the same issue only way to get out the micro peices of glass was to carefully pick them out and shake it a little then i used a hair dryer to blow everything out.
Just think of it as carefully surgery i tried my hardest not to let any pieces come in contact with the bare lens itself.
I bought the same thing but in white mines a grey phone so now its a 2 tone colour on the back.
I think you've got the wrong end of the stick, mine isn't broken, it's just got a lot of dust in the wide angle lens. So I need to be careful when lifting the whole piece out so I don't take anything else out that shouldn't.
You bought that exact one from amazon? Was everything OK? What's the quality like with the photos after changing over?
My bad anyways lifting it off you wont take anything else with it just heat it up with a dryer and peel away...but you might break it while doing this so Becareful and slide your thin tool ever so slowly along the edges.
I bought the same but not from that seller there all from the same china warehouse so no diff...to me photos havent changed at all.
