The results from last week’s poll show a resounding victory for under-screen cameras. This is a tech that’s currently in the prototype stage, but it’s going to make quite a splash when it becomes available on the mass market.
We expect all makers will switch to under-screen cameras as soon as they hit the right price/performance balance for them (the equations for flagships and mid-rangers are obviously different).
This tech enables full-screen designs without the sacrifices needed for pop-up/flip-up cameras – they take up less internal volume and they don’t ruin the water resistance of a phone.
Yes, Oppo’s CEO warned that the image quality is not great yet, but that didn’t bother people in the comments. Some don’t use the selfie cam at all, others would be willing to live with the hit to image quality to get thebenefits of under-screen cams.
Actually, flip-up cameras lost to the pop-up and notch designs, despite providing much better image quality than both. It seems that barely anyone cares about the quality of the selfie camera.
So, bring it on, Oppo, the market is ready to leave notches and punch holes behind. Other makers are working on under-screen cameras too - the more, the merrier, we'd say.
