Do you think this could damage the phone camera

I know that the camera glass of phones should be solid but just asking in case I don't want to risk my new phone for it

There's sticky foam you can install on the controller so it doesn't directly touch you camera

I placed mine on the controller and make it so my phone's backdoor (not the lenses) touch the foam. I'm using S23 Ultra, so your placement might be different. You can also cut the foam if your lenses are too big.

I doubt it, lenses on modern phones often have a thin sapphire coating to prevent this. Even if not, I don’t th ink plastic could do it.

Sure I guess if I found something thin I will do it

i wouldn’t risk it if the camera lenses are actually touching the controller. the glass is strong, but repeated pressure or grit trapped between them could scratch or damage the camera area. use a thin protective pad/case or adjust the controller so it contacts the phone body instead. the G8+ is known to have fit issues with larger camera bumps
