Restore full 3x optical zoom performance on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (SM-S928) with this genuine Samsung 10MP Telephoto Rear Camera Module, service part GH96-16305A, supplied in reclaimed condition. Professionally removed from a working donor device, fully cleaned and bench-tested by our QA team, the module delivers Samsung's original 3x optical zoom imaging — the standard telephoto camera that complements the periscope unit and handles short-to-mid range zoom photography.

The S24 Ultra uses two distinct telephoto cameras working together: this 10MP 3x optical zoom module covers shorter zoom distances, while the 50MP periscope (GH96-16302A) handles 5x and beyond. Replacing this module restores the device's full zoom range and Samsung's seamless camera switching across focal lengths. Aftermarket alternatives often produce soft images, autofocus hunting, washed-out colours or unreliable HDR — making genuine reclaimed the right choice for any S24 Ultra telephoto camera repair where the customer expects factory-spec performance.

Common Faults Resolved

• Blurry, soft or out-of-focus 3x zoom photos and video
• Autofocus hunting at the 3x focal length
• Black or frozen camera preview when switching to telephoto mode
• Failure to engage the 3x camera in the Camera app
• Optical stabilisation rattle or knocking sound
• Inconsistent transition between cameras as zoom level changes
• Liquid or impact damage to the original telephoto module
• Failed prior repair using a poorly tested aftermarket camera

What's Included

• 1 x Genuine reclaimed Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 10MP 3x telephoto rear camera module (service part GH96-16305A)

Important Notes

• Confirm fault camera before ordering: the S24 Ultra has four rear cameras and faults can be specific to one module. If the 5x or longer zoom is failing, the periscope is the fault — order GH96-16302A instead. This 10MP 3x module only handles approximately 3x to 5x focal lengths.
• No Samsung notification system: unlike Apple's Parts & Service History warnings, Samsung does not display a "non-genuine part" notification when a reclaimed or aftermarket camera is fitted. The repair is invisible to the end user from a software warning perspective.
• Camera calibration: Samsung's authorised service tool can recalibrate AI camera features after module replacement, although this is rarely needed in practice — the module is largely plug-and-play and Samsung's One UI typically recognises the new hardware on first use.
• Cleanliness is critical: dust, fingerprints or debris on the lens face or inside the camera housing will appear as artefacts, blurs or light-flare in zoom images. Work in a clean environment and inspect the lens before reassembly.
• Bench-test before final fitment: connect and verify autofocus at multiple zoom levels (1x, 3x, 5x, 10x), OIS function and 4K video recording before sealing the device.
• Correct seating: ensure the module sits flush in the chassis recess to maintain focus alignment and OIS performance.
• Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician using suitable heat, separation and ESD-safe tools to avoid damage to the chassis, flex cables or logic board.
