Oppo teases smartphone with in-display camera, could launch later this year
Smartphone makers are racing to become the first to launch a smartphone with in-display camera solution. After experimenting with notches, pop-up selfie cameras and hole punch display design, smartphone makers have identified putting camera under the display as the ideal solution for creating a full screen smartphone. Huawei, Samsung are already working on such a solution while Xiaomi has received patent for enabling camera under the display. But, Chinese smartphone maker Oppo could beat its rivals and launch a smartphone with selfie camera placed under the display.
Oppo is no stranger to firsts in the smartphone world. It was the first to launch a smartphone with swivel camera mechanism. It was the first to demonstrate 5x zoom using periscope camera on a smartphone and at MWC 2019, the company became the first to show 10x lossless zoom on a smartphone. Now, it could add another first to its kitty by becoming the first smartphone maker to launch a mobile device that has the selfie camera placed inside the main display of the smartphone. RIP Notch, Pop-up Selfie Camera, Mechanical Camera and Flip Camera. For those seeking the perfect, notchless smartphone screen experience – prepare to be amazed. ?In a tweet early this morning, Oppo is showing an upcoming smartphone protected by a case, that has an in-display camera solution. The 15 second video posted by the company shows only the top half of the device with the display showing standard wallpapers and it immediately gets interesting. We can see someone bring up an application tray and trigger the camera which loads directly into the selfie experience. However, there is no selfie camera to be seen at the top side of the device.
