Your phone's camera is (probably) already very good.
Maybe so good that its photos can be used as giant billboards and entire wedding albums.
The latest devices have truly impressive camera technology (12 megapixels for the iPhone 6S and 16 for the Galaxy S6, plus an array of fancy software like "smart optical image stabilization"). But they can always be better, and that's where the Iris Lens series from Photojojo comes in.

Photojojo recently introduced three phone lenses that'll make your photos look sick as hell.
They're mini versions of the lenses used for big, fancy DSLRs, made just for your smartphone device.
The phone lens concept is not new. There are plenty of options already on the market, but they're problematic for two reasons. Most lenses either a) require a mount that's permanently affixed to your phone (like the Moment Lens) or b) can only attach to the device without a case (like Olloclip).
The Iris lenses (which come in wide, macro, and fisheye versions) are different because they work with or without a case, and are compatible with both the iPhone 6/6S and Samsung Galaxy S6. Photojojo also claims that the lenses ($90 for all three or $35 each) have the "highest center and edge resolution" of any phone lens.
