Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, vivo, ZTE to launch phones with under-display cameras this year
A number of phone makers have smartphones in the pipeline with next-generation under-display cameras.
Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, vivo, ZTE and Meizu are all expected to show phones with new under-display cameras in the second half of the year.
According to popular insider Ice universe Samsung's and Oppo's devices to use an under-display camera will be foldables, while Xiaomi's will be the Mi Mix 4.
We've already heard that vivo's NEX 5 is expected to bring an improved under-display camera in the second half of the year. ZTE first showed a mass market under-display camera solution in the Axon 20 5G (review here), but the quality of the camera was lacking to say the least. Now the company has confirmed its Axon 30 will bring the next generation of the camera, but it's yet to release more details about it.
The second half of the year is when the Under Display Camera officially debuts, including at least Samsung (folding), Xiaomi (MIX4), OPPO (folding), vivo and ZTE (greatly improved version)

Surely your not serious about iPhone's having a more complete / pleasing visual experience over a punch hole or phone with no cut outs / punch holes from Android. iPhone displays are visually gross when compared to a high end display supplied ...
