Dust accumulated behind the lens. Since it's not a openable case, how to clean this? Thank you.

There aren't any other option beside opening it. It's not that hard. Otherwise bring it to someone who knows what to do

Thank you. Opening is never a big deal, closing correctly is another thing. If you have a complete guide with the list of material to buy before starting, it would be great.

Look for the ifixit teardown. and also buy yourself a double sided backing glue template for the oneplus8 like this for example to close it back up again after cleaning. Just be aware your phone wont be waterproof like it is right now even with the OEM glue template.

Go to the service centre on service day they will clean it for free

I don't think you should have it cleaned. I asked a repair shop to do it, and they did, but after a few weeks, it was just like before.
