Oppo gets patent for a full-screen smartphone design with selfie camera in the top be
Oppo has filed a patent for a new smartphone design without pop-up selfie camera. The Chinese smartphone maker’s new design patent shows a smartphone with thicker bezel on the top. This will allow the company to place the selfie camera and other modules and eliminate the pop-up camera mechanism. This new design also eliminates waterdrop notch or punch hole design being adopted by smartphone makers. The patent was reportedly filed by Oppo in March 2019 and was published on January 21, 2020.
Oppo patent could eliminate notches and pop-up camera This patented design could arrive on the next Oppo Reno smartphone. The patent shows a device with O-Dot on the back, which hints at the device being part of the Reno series. In terms of design, Oppo plans to put the front camera within the top frame’s slim bezel. The bezel above the display is made bigger to accommodate the selfie shooter. While notched selfie cameras form a part of the screen, the selfie camera is part of the bezel here. The images also show that the volume rocker and power ****on are placed on either side of the device.

However, it can be described as a revamp of an old idea to eliminate any kind of notch on smartphones. Oppo is also able to incorporate a full-screen display in this setup. Smartphone makers have been trying to trim the bezels on their devices for the past few years. Apple almost eliminated bezels when it launched iPhone X in 2017. Samsung has also made the bezels thinner in recent devices like the Galaxy Note 10.  Photo: 91mobilesThe images submitted by Oppo for this patent shows a rear panel with no cameras or branding. There is, however, the green-color dot that confirms the device could be part of the Reno series. There is also a possibility that this is the rumored device where the camera is placed underneath the rear glass panel. Oppo is already working on Find X2 which is expected to launch during the first quarter of this year.
