Torn cable on a phone I bought, unsure of what it's for.

Hey, I bought a 6s plus of someone and after looking inside my boss pointed out I had a torn ground. I thought it may have been the camera but I'm finding it's something else.

I'm not sure what it's for exactly so I decided to ask on here!

It appears to be a little bit above and to the right of where the back camera flex plugs into the connector. I unscrewed the screw and the little piece came off that you see in the images.

That's the NFC antenna or bridging flex cable.

You may not be able to use NFC related stuff like apple pay but I don't think much people use NFC anyway.

Thanks for the quick response Ben. So not that important really? I personally have never used apple pay but I mean some people might.
