It looks like a filter cap for a voltage regulator[Q200], probably 1.8v.

Most likely any 1uf ceramic will work (if you can get them new).
If you have any scrap electronics, you could post a picture, and we could point a capacitor you could salvage.


By the way it is positioned(There is another cap and an inductor in that voltage out/input), there is a chance the board would even power up, altough stability would be a concern.

If you could power the board and measure how many volts you get between the pads (from the broken cap), it would be easier to know what that rail is powering

I Strongly recommend against you trying to fix it. If you are not familliar with SMD components soldering, or even what is a capacitor.

Any electronics shop, especially smartphone repair shops, should be able to solder a capacitor that fits.
