Recently we that Samsung is developing a technology that will allow the front camera sensor to be placed under the surface of the screen of smartphones. As it has now become known, OPPO specialists are also working on a similar solution.
The idea is to rid the screen of a cutout or a hole for a selfie module, and also to do without a retractable front camera unit. It is assumed that the sensor will be built directly into the display area, as is the case with fingerprint scanners.
The fact that the Chinese company OPPO is designing a smartphone with an under-screen camera, famous blogger Ben Geskin. No details about this technical solution are disclosed. But it is claimed that OPPO will demonstrate the device as early as this year.
The integration of a selfie camera into the screen area will allow you to create smartphones with a completely frameless design. This decision may put an end to experiments with the placement of the front camera.
We add that OPPO is in fifth place in the list of leading smartphone vendors. In the first quarter of this year, according to IDC, the company shipped 23,1 million devices, taking 7,4% of the market.
