Oppo patents a smartphone with a selfie camera sliding sideways

16 February 2021
It goes from one end of the top bezel to the other, with several stops during the process.

Clever but I don't think it's what anyone actually wants.

    The big problem right now is the challenge of hiding a selfie camera under the screen.
    It requires art that no company can!
    So when should we wait for this technology?

      Why. It will introduce a top bezel and has no use

                I'm sure it is cheaper and more practical (it takes less space inside the phone) to have 2 selfie cameras on the sides.

                    Sometimes you have no word to say, this is the one of that moments.

                        Wow, innovation....
                        Give them an award for movable camera.
                        Now you can move your camera without your hand.

                          I can't really see any point of that. It's not like changing the front camera placement can influence the selfie photo.

                            Seems kind of pointless.

                              So after copying Apple's wide and ugly notch in the display all these years and later trying punch hole in display for selfi camera, they are going one step backwards towards bezels on top of the display again. Strange.

                                The Chinese as usual coming with the best innovations out there

                                  I think when people move their phones, it may bump to other person/objects in the public and it will be akward lol. Or maybe when he moves it, the phones is too slippery and will slip off their hands lol
