Oppo is preparing another smartphone with an unusual front camera

The other day we wrote about the new smartphone sub-brand Oppo Reno. This is a simplified version of Oppo Reno with an unusual design:

the front camera is not just retractable, it is as if beveled. But this is not the only Oppo idea: the company has patented another smartphone with a sliding front-end.

What came up

Judging from the images in the patent application, thisthere will be a slider, but only by a third. That is, not the entire rear panel will go along with the front camera, but only part of it. And along with it, the main camera (most likely, a double one) will move.

The front camera also seems to have two modules.

A similar design for the flagship Oppo Find X, which debuted last summer. Only under his body are hidden both cameras - both front and main.

This design allows you to reduce the frame andremove the cuts completely so that the display occupies the maximum area of ​​the front panel. True, the smartphone in the patent documents still have a small "chin".
