I used to have this fitted to my old S20 Ultra, but quickly realised it affected the camera lens focusing and a very faint tinge, so I removed it after a week and just stuck it on a mobile stand.

I have tried a few times to remove it and failed, so today used brute force and a knife, even then it only came off in small pieces.

Maybe worrying if say it gets scratched and you decide to replace it on the mobile, would cause serious damage.

In all the years of having smartphones. Only once did I get a slight mark on a camera lens. Even then it was a freak accident when I dropped the phone and it landed on the camera lens first on some stuff I had on a table.

I did use a lens protector, and quickly realised my photos were affected. So haven't used one since.

Samsung actually recommends not to use any camera protector due to that fact, that it can damage the camera lens if when trying to remove them even throu a lot of people do use them.
