A case that closes over the camera

The lenses on the back of a phone stand proud of the body, so they take the knocks and scratches when the phone is put down, slid across a table or carried with keys. A camera cover case has a slide or a flap that closes over the lenses when you are not taking photos, and opens when you are. A case comes onto this page when its own name or description says it has a camera cover, a camera slide or shutter, or a lens cover.

Camera cover, raised lip or lens protector

There are three ways to look after the lenses, and they work together.

  • A raised lip. Most cases have an edge round the camera opening that stands a little higher than the lenses, so when the phone lies on its back the case touches the table, not the glass. Tough and shockproof cases usually have a deeper lip.
  • A camera cover. The slide closes the opening completely, so keys, grit and pocket lint cannot reach the lenses at all.
  • A lens protector is a glass or metal ring fitted over the lenses themselves. See camera lens protectors.

How to choose a camera cover case

Fit comes first. The camera sits in a different place and shape from one phone model to the next, so a camera cover case is made for a particular model, and the slide only lines up with the lenses on that model. Check the model list on the case.

Then look at the opening. A camera opening that is too tight, or an edge that sits too close to the lenses, can catch the light from the flash and cause a glow in night photos, so a clean, well-shaped opening matters. Check, too, that the slide moves easily with one thumb, because you will open it before every photo.

Think about the rest of the case as well. A camera cover can come on a slim case or a tough one, so choose the protection you need. The guide to choosing a phone case goes through drop protection, materials and fit, and the guide to camera lens protectors explains what wears the lenses down.

Questions people ask about camera cover cases

Will the camera work with the cover closed?

No. Slide it open before you take a photo or film with the rear camera. The front camera, on the screen side, is not covered.

Does a camera cover help in a phone holder?

It can. A car or bike holder whose arm sits over the camera rubs the lenses each time the phone goes in and out, and a closed cover takes that wear instead.
