[M_SHUKRY]

hi , i just bought a new samsung a05s phone after 2 days of use i realized that there is a small dust particle inside the third camera lens (the depth one ) where i live the only option is get the phone disassembled by the service center to clean it out i can't replace or refund so is the dust particle in that spot could affect the camera or its fine to leave it

Welcome to Android Central! Why are you unable to get it replaced? It should still be under warranty. Or did you get it as a grey-market device from another country?

Try testing it extensively by taking close-up shots alternating with far shots, as well as portrait shots, and see if it works ok.

Welcome to Android Central forums. As someone who works with cameras B. Diddy is correct, you really won't know until you take some photos, but I work in a dusty environment and have never seen even a dust covered lens have much if any impact on the image.

From your image it is difficult to know where the dust is. I assume it's on the lens but from this angle how centered is it in front of the sensor? That will be more of the determining factor for whether it will affect your images.

If for some reason you cannot return it for exchange, or repair, I found this article that talks about dust inside of the camera lens.
