Google is said to be working on a technique in which the selfie camera and light sensor are processed under the screen. This technique could be introduced with the Pixel 7 Pro.
Google Pixel 7 Pro with selfiecam below the screen
The Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro have only just been announced and the first rumors about the successor to the Pro version are already around the door. The search giant has LetsGoDigital filed a patent stating that an under-screen camera is in development. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 also has such a selfie camera under the screen, and that technology makes a notch or punch-hole notch unnecessary. This makes the entire screen available to the user. According to the documentation accompanying the patent, this is also the reason for Google to develop such a selfie camera: “There is a need to create a larger screen surface, without increasing the size of the phone.” The Pixel 7 Pro could well get the scoop.
The patent also goes deeper into the way this selfie camera works. It is a translucent screen where, in the place of the selfie camera, sufficient light can fall on the sensor. That should ensure better quality photos. In addition to the front camera, according to the patent, a light sensor and flash would also be placed under the screen.
We are curious about the arrival of the selfie camera under the screen on Pixel phones, and more importantly, about its quality. There is still a lot to improve on with this technology, according to the review of the Galaxy Z Fold 3.
More smartphones with under-screen cameras
In 2019, the Chinese OPPO was the first manufacturer to unveil a prototype phone with a selfie camera under the screen. ZTE followed with the Axon 20 5G and Xiaomi also has a phone with such a high-tech gadget. There are no further reports about the arrival of more smartphones with a selfie camera under the screen. Would you see such a selfie camera in a OnePlus, Nokia, or Samsung phone? Let us know in the comments below this article.
