News & Reviews:   under-display camera

While there are only a few more days until the Samsung Galaxy S21 series launches, the company just filed a new patent to the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office). Spotted by LetsGoDigital, the patent is named Display Device and seems to be a phone with an under-display camera technology.

This year, we have seen smartphone manufacturers proposed some ideas on how to make their own under-display camera. As we've heard, the feature is a challenging one to put on smartphones considering photo quality and some other technical problems. That's why we have to wait this long for it to become a mainstream feature in the smartphone market. Now, Samsung has been spotted with an idea as well as it involves a sub-display to hide the camera.

The under-display camera is probably the most sought-after smartphone feature in 2021. After ZTE led the industry by presenting the Axon 20 5G that comes with an under-display camera earlier this year, we believe others might have already started preparing theirs as well. With that said, a patent of Google Pixel 6 has been spotted and the device could come with one.

Although the under-display camera (UDC) is a highly-anticipated technology for smartphones next year, it looks like Samsung won't be bringing it to their next flagship series. It is reported that the tech giant has scrapped the idea off for the Samsung Galaxy S21 series. Therefore, we won't be seeing the technology on Samsung's smartphones until mid-2021.

In no time, ZTE will be launching the world's first commercially available smartphone with an under-display camera. The under-display camera is a technology that many of us would like to see on the market. Although there are a lot of challenges to make one, it looks like ZTE has overcome them with the release of Axon 20 5G. Now, the brand shares with us about how the technology works on the upcoming smartphone before it launches on 1 September.

A smartphone with invisible cameras? How does that work? Well, the first thing that probably comes to your mind is using an under-display camera but this only works for the front. So what about the back? Let's find out.

The under-display camera might be one of the latest technology that many can't wait to see on upcoming smartphones. With the technology, the era of notches will be ended as manufacturers can finally achieve real full-view display. However, for those who are wishing for the Samsung Galaxy S21 series to come with it, we have some sad news.

Just a few days ago, it was rumoured that Huawei could have turned to Beijing Oriental Electronics (BOE) for OLED displays. The company will be using OLED technology for its upcoming Mate 40 series, but there could be more. Allegedly, a demo unit with a flexible display was spotted recently.

Earlier this year, we have gotten some devices from the OPPO Find X2 lineup including Find X2, Find X2 Pro and Find X2 Lite. Now, it appears that the vanilla Find X2 and its Pro variant will get new designs after leaks have surfaced online. It looks like OPPO will be working with Lamborghini again to release special edition smartphones.

We hear about the smartphone brands a lot, but not so much the other vendors that supply them. Well, some of these vendors have big roles and Visionox is one when it comes to OLED displays. The Chinese manufacturer has completed development for a type of display that will allow under-display cameras and may look to enter mass production soon.
