    IpsDisplay, 21 May 2019Rejoice Samsung fan boys only when Samsung can get 5x optic... moreJust wait for the new amoled panels with igzo-TFT! Most likely they will have 90Hz/120Hz refresh rates but also the ability to have an under the screen camera without a problem!
    When the screen is off it will look like a punch-hole(it will look a bit deeper and with no visible ring) camera but when the screen turns on, it will be invisible, only when you use the camera the pixels in front of the sensor disable so you use it!
    *This is just a theory form a site I found online. Some speculate if it's actually like this, when you watch videos for example and there is a black part scene where the camera is, will it be visible or is there a way to produce a black color?

        Huawei mate 20 pro best features were reverse wireless charging and triple camera with wide angle camera and under display fingerprint scanner the next samsung got the same features
        P30 pro had 5x optical zoom now note 10 will get it
        Keep copying samsung

          Rejoice Samsung fan boys only when Samsung can get 5x optical zoom will it finally be a worthwhile feature

          Or when they make an oled screen at 120hz will the refresh rate be praised

                  Could this just be the optic they use in the Oppo Reno 10x? They even mention in the source article that Samsung supplies Oppo with this module. If you compare Oppo Reno 10x teardowns with the picture of the periscope module, you can spot many similarities with respect to the physical appearance ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                    Not bad, though I'd like to see either better quality than Huaweis or further zoom
