In a quest to achieve full screen displays, without any kind of hindrances, on smartphones, Xiaomi today has shown a prototype device on twitter showing its development in achieving under-display camera technology.
Few companies such as ZTE and Oppo are reportedly working on introducing under-display cameras to smartphones. Xiaomi on the other hand has shown its 3rd Generation under-display tech on twitter today. In the video posted by Xiaomi International President, Shou Zi Chew, a prototype device is shown with an under-display camera next to a phone with a hole punch selfie camera. In the video, there is no indication where the selfie camera is placed behind the main display. Towards the end of the video, the model appears to take a selfie using this prototype device and it looks just like a normal selfie picture.
