    iPhone 6s Front Camera Replacement

    Does anyone know what kind of cable and/or connector is used for a front camera of an iPhone 6s? Also, would there be a way to plug in a webcam to that connector? I'm looking to replace my front camera as it's broken, but curious if I can replace it with a front camera that is not OEM.

    iPhone iOS 13 - no iPhone 6 support, but iPad OS supports iPad Mini 4 when they have the same processor...
