Samsung Galaxy S21: Samsung’s First Mobile with a Hidden Camera

The most important high-end mobiles of the end of 2020 and 2021 will begin to offer a new step in camera technology. Looking for the all-screen lens , the selfie camera will hide under the screen and banish notches or pop-up cameras forever. This is how we have seen it in the new ZTE Axon 20 5G, but it is a technology on which other brands are included, including Samsung.

Many of the rumors prior to the launch of Galaxy Note 20, assured that this could be the first Samsung family to have this type of camera. In the end it has not been like that, and not even the Note 20 Ultra integrates this type of hidden selfie sensor. So all bets are now on the Galaxy S21 , which is expected to see the light of day in early 2021.

A more advanced camera

On this occasion it was the famous leaker Ice Universe, who has ensured that the first Samsung mobile with a hidden front camera will be the Galaxy S21. In addition, it ensures that Samsung’s solution is far ahead of other brands and that Samsung phones will have more extraneous requirements for under-screen camera effects, compared to other brands. In other words, Samsung does not mind arriving somewhat later than ZTE or other brands that may launch this technology earlier, if the results are better than its competition.

We have known for a long time that brands such as OPPO, Xiaomi and Samsung itself, have been working for a long time on a solution that happens to be the future and the definitive solution to be able to offer full screen designs, without the need to create emerging mechanical cameras. As ZTE is the first company to launch a commercial bet in this regard, we have been able to better understand how it works. However, it remains an engineering challenge to achieve good results, something that has delayed its commercialization until now.

Apple is also behind

As explained by the Chinese firm, the hidden selfie sensor has five technologies: a special screen material, a dual control chip, a single driver circuit, a special pixel matrix and a self-developed shooting algorithm. Ice Universe has also revealed that Apple will eliminate the notch in the iPhone of 2021, since the apple company is also behind the cameras below the screen.
