News & Reviews:   under-screen camera

Since phone brands are still working on under-screen camera technology, it hasn't really made a breakthrough yet in the smartphone industry. Today, OPPO has finally unveiled its next-gen under-screen camera technology. Here's what we know about it so far.

When we talk about the under-screen camera, we must not forget that ZTE is the first smartphone maker to bring the technology into the market with the Axon 20. After making such a brave move, the company is reportedly working on the next-gen under-screen camera.

Here's a reminder that we're already in November if you've forgotten about the timeline while being quarantined at home. With that said, we'll soon be stepping into 2021 in just less than two months. To make you excited about the upcoming year, someone has leaked a few of the impressive technologies that Xiaomi is putting into their 2021 smartphones.

Last month, it was reported that Visionox has begun mass-producing displays that can turn transparent. With this, smartphone manufacturers could start creating devices with under-display cameras. Apparently, phones bearing this type of display could be coming soon.

Earlier, we have heard the news saying that Huawei is getting the first access to Visionox's under-screen camera display. Other than that, it is also rumoured that the smartphone manufacturer will be using the panels for the next HONOR Magic series. Now, it is reported that the Visionox's under-screen camera display is ready to enter mass production, so is the upcoming HONOR Magic really going to use it?

Earlier, we've heard the news that Visionox, a Chinese screen manufacturer, is ready to mass-produce displays that allow under-screen cameras to function. Now, it has been reported that the company will give Huawei first access to the screens, as Huawei is eyeing to monopolize the under-display camera technology.

The under-screen camera is probably one of the features that we would very much like to see on new smartphones. Not only it will bring something new and exciting to the smartphone industry, but the technology will also end the era of the notches. Today, an approved design patent from Xiaomi has leaked and pretty much shows us how the company will be making a smartphone with an under-screen camera.

Remember the OnePlus Concept One, the one with the disappearing rear cameras? Well, it seems OnePlus is looking into building other smartphones with a similar concept. The company's latest patent that was found in the WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) shows a smartphone with cameras that can hide.
