Oppo demoed an under-display camera back at MWC Shanghai in 2019after which there were no updates on the project from the Chinese company. On Tuesday the president of Oppo China revealed the company’s plan to unveil its second-generation solution tomorrow, August 4.
The first iteration came on a prototype device with a customised display and camera module. The screen above the lens was made of a unique, highly transparent material with redesigned pixel structure.
Eventually, ZTE brought its take on how the technology should work and display manufacturer Visionox worked towards introducing the Axon 20 – the first commercially available smartphone with an under-display front-facing camera. It had many limitations as expected on a first-generation product, but the Axon 30 that came out last month is a significant step forward.
