No. There’s a bunch out there but the iPhone camera lens is a hybrid sapphire so it’s pretty dang resistant. Only thing most likely better is real Sapphire from companies like Shellrus
cool good to hear, so gentle laying my phone down on a desk with the screen facing up will unlikely scratch the lens?
Nope and I've been rocking naked phones since the 11 series. As long as you're realistic about it and not dragging your phone around on gravel or using it to hammer a nail then don't worry. Personally, I've never heard or seen anyone scratching the lens screen unless it was something very traumatic but then the whole phone was usually destroyed.
I'm not convinced that lens protection isn't needed because of how far the cameras stick out and how large the lenses are. All it would take is one slip of the phone out of your hand and the lens hitting something hard sticking up, like a sharp rock or even a curb, which would ruin your day.
