Hole punch and notches are an annoying necessity with today's smartphones to find a spot to fit the selfie camera also the sensors, but ZTE might have a way to fix that.

I'm getting fucking crazy because I would like to see, but I can't! What the problem with my eyes?! I hate you guys, it's not fair use Sharingan!
I just saw an advert for Samsung OLED laptop screens with a hidden camera too.
Ah yes cameras, the least used piece of hardware on any phone I've ever owned.
I dont care about the 2 blurry pixels ill take that over a huge notch anyday of the week!
I still remember when $450 was a price for a premium phone~
I'm watching from my axon 10, I love this brand, I had the 7 before
If you still talk like apple then you are living in the past.
I never use the front-facing camera, it'd be nice if these companies would just make some models without one. Not every single damn thing has to be all or nothing (across every notable company, no less).
I was really impressed with the Axon 7. So i bought the axon 10. I want to warn people that this phone has had a huge problem failing it's screen after 6 months. I'm not saying their 20's series will have the same issue but i'm not buying it anymore. Each 10 series had the same problem after 6 months.
Amazing! Never thought I'd be finish watching this video!
Some people just use the front camera for video calls which are already squashed by the compression and blurry ;)
I was waiting for hidden cameras to happen, so tired of the notch and camera holes in the screen.
Display in the back is the best way to go. You get a good camera.
"It's obvious why Apple hasn't shipped it yet. It's not Apple good." Yeah, but that big ass ugly notch is "Apple good"... Just like that stupid Headphone Bra Holder - "Apple good", or that ugly ass cheese grater, "Apple good", and that stupid 60HZ display they stuck with for 2 years too long "Apple good"... The Apple bias is so strong with almost everyone anywhere it's ridiculous... Compare Apple like you'd compare Xiaomi, Samsung, etc and Apple wouldn't even make it into the "This is acceptable" category of products.
Could there have been a fingerprint smudge on where the camera was at? It kinda looks like that because the whole photo wasnt smudged, just parts of it
I'm praying that I can keep using my current OP5 until this becomes really good.
Maybe im just the odd one out but I've never really had an issue with the really small bezels on modern phones. Id much rather have a bezel than a notch tbh. I have an lg v30 and I think the bezels are almost too thin cause my hands are huge :^
Tbh how tf are people okay with this lol, basically normalising hidden cameras
I love sponsorblock extension
Did you forget to colorgrade the video?
I cant see it (720p) f
Can't wait for apple to steal this and day it's revolutionary
I already bid notches adeui, by having a bezel. Nothing wrong with the way the Sony Xperia 1 ii handles it.
so much trouble when you could just instead not put a selfie camera on the device in the first place. oh well, I guess the big brother really needs its peep hole.

It's because only enthusiasts would buy a phone without a selfie camera
now .. remove 3 camera from the back and i will take it , who need 100 camera in a phone .
this isn't sold in the US or Canada?!? why the video.
What happened to the microphone placement? :D Great video otherwise.
Just give it a year or so and Apple will steal the idea and say look at our new innovative idea for the next iphone
Phones with a pop up camera are the better approach IMO
I would prefer a back shorter screen and use my main cameras over this!
Just watched this on my phone, and until you put the camera right up to it it was indistinguishable from youtube compression artifacts tbh
It's about time we got an under-screen camera. And in a mid-range phone... I would actually be interested if I was looking to get a new phone. Glad to see they included a simple, clear, flexible case- The back of that phone looks sick.
repost
Clean the display first, lenses get smutty all the time.
Ironic, isn't it? "Selfie camera" and yet you see people taking selfies in front of the mirror with their phones in the frame, using back camera.
Budget phone: headphone jack, A charger, A soft case, in display camera etc 1000 dollar phone : headphone jack(extinct ), no case, no charger, a badass notch
It is a “built in” cyberpunk filter
I would instabuy a phone with no selfie camera. It's useless anyway.

First LMG video with Motion Blur I guess. :D
ZTE makes fantastic hardware but their software is atrocious. The price may be half what a comparable phone costs but you get a quarter the usable life from the phone before the software becomes glitchy and buggy to the point of unusability.
Well actually the other reason and more important for Apple to not have this feature is because they simply can't. ZTE isn't even close to how many phones Apple ships every year. They can mass produce this technology in the number of sales they have. Bigger companies can't, not only Apple. People often forget the difference in quantity between companies and just assume that if one company can make that then the others should. It's not only about the quality of this technology (which is bad) but it is also about the quantity. That's one of the reasons we mostly see new technologies from smaller companies nowdays and not from the big ones.
audio problems?
Thought TimTheTatface was going to show up for a moment there.
It would be great when you would look at the spec sheet of these things before the video and not when the video is 50% shot already. There are always a lot of mistakes in the videos. Unboxing doesn't mean blind guessing.
I couldn't see it until linus zooms in his videos
Next step is to put it on 2/3 in height in the screen so it would enable eye contact in video calls. As if you were looking into people's eyes.
you keep pointing at it, yet I can't see anything
just DLSS the front camera
Me watching at 360p what are you talking about there's nothing on that phones screen.
Something's off with short circuit videos, there is like fog or something, or maybe it's just my phone... ?
I still don't get why they just dont put little screen on the back for selfies and stop putting those crapy front cameras inside. You can frame a shot on the small low power screen just fine. And you get nice rear camera. Even mid to low range phones have better rear cameras than flagships in the front...
Satanic
I have a Poco X3 with stereo speakers.
Is this video edited by a new editor Or is that LTT have switched to the new cameras Video and Audio not so great as the old ones
Where can i get a mask like Brandon have in this video ?????
I hate selfie cams, they've ruined phones with their chunks taken out of displays. A secondary display or a fracking mirror on the back next to the main camera, please!
Last time I used a ZTE device it had a weird smoothing effect on by default for the selfie camera. Are you sure that wasn't turned on here?
ZTE is risky. Chinese gov is watching.
How do I tape it up now?
Apple good ??😂 You mean it's not used to death by other companies so that apple can claim it's their idea after half a decade ?
TimtheTatMan intro music running quietly in the background for first 5 minutes. Weird
under screen sound basically means the top of the screen vibrates for phone calls. So that small speaker can only produce low dB sound but it probably works fine for phone calls
Just move away from the front camera and find a way to use the main camera for selfies.
Ooof with a camera that bad might as well have just forfeited it for full screen cause there'd be no reason to use it
Disguised under-screen cameras in typical Smart TV won't be creepy at all.
@op - You missed the part about the phone model being forcibly put on every photo you take.
data collection/spy machines that they convince you to pay for yourself. very scary
oh kool..... wait.. ZTE.... hmmm.... naw no thanx
@TimTheTatman Theme music in this video
It is interesting that they have spent such a long time hiding the front camera when there is definitely a market for people that just don't give a shit about it.
8:38 - Some people go and apply a beauty filter. BUT THIS PHONE water marks all your shitty pictures with "ZTE Axon 20 5G"
it only appears when you look for it
Doesn't seem like anything not correctable by image correction
He said 'z" the right way yay
Linus u should check the Mi 11 pro if u can get ur hands on one. It has a under display selfie camera as well and top max out specs debuting the 888 chip as well. I would like to see how Xaiomi does the under display camera.
I could see it at 2k res, but honestly, unless YT compression and/or the camera couldn't focus it correctly, it's subtle enough not to be disturbing at all. So in my opinion, it's still better than a notch or a hole punch, so it serves its initial purpose. Moreover, I expect premium smartphones to have a better front facing camera than this one, and possibly find a way to have a sharper image quality in the area that covers it. When this is available, i just wish manufacturers just put the camera dead centered on the panel, so you don't need to look "at the camera" when doing a facetime and just look at the screen. Would feel more intuitive, and at least when you look at the camera you'll look at the person you're calling.
I was confused in between because I kept hearing a music in the background which I always hear while watching NOlocal videos of TimtheTatMan. Anyone else felt that?
So I'm watching this and the NOlocal add was litterally a "5g blocking beanie"
Linus 2020 - "Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken?"
The title should be : Holy **** ! Under screen cameras are here 😂
What is it with Linus' obsession about the dot/notch? We've all come to accept it to the level of mildly infuriating.
i thought the secret was, it spies on you
Like most things android will do it first, Apple will wait til it’s good and say it’s their revolutionary new feature
This is great for ppl who dgaf about selfies and just want a full screen display w/o notch too 🤷🏻♂️
I don't think I've ever used a selfie-camera...
This will be revolutionary, first of its kind tech when Apple applies it in 2 years.
8:49 - NO Anyway, an interesting 'hack' - behind screen camera. Nice shot of the cameraman / equipment.
Now there's a neat trick - If a phone is flagged as stolen by the owner, you can get a face shot of the criminal without them thinking they're using a camera, and any attempt to block said image would require compromising the image quality significantly, so criminals would always have to disguise so they can use this phone without being caught. Once it's "Apple good", you have to be "Apple good" about stealing the device without being caught.
Honestly I have no need for the front facing camera. You could just get rid on it and I would not miss it one bit.
The smartphone introduced a totally unnecessary problem & now they're going to sell us a solution to it. I still refuse to buy any phone with a notch or holepunch. I'm just gonna wait this out.
Personally I preferred the OnePlus 7 pro popup camera. Not only did it allow for a decent camera without compromises because of size or having to look through a screen, but it was also completely hidden while not in use which means there is absolutely no question whether the camera is on or not. I have never had any problem with speed, the camera not working, etc. It's worked flawlessly since I bought it, with daily use. I honestly doubt that I'll swap out my phone any time soon, partly because new phones really don't have anything that I feel makes upgrading worth it, and to be honest, anything new would kind of feel like a downgrade considering all the viable options have notches or teardrops. Even when under-screen cameras become good I still like the fact that my camera is for sure hidden and off when not in use. I don't actually think anyone is connecting to the camera, but it still somehow just feels comforting that no one could, and I like the no compromise nature of the OnePlus 7 pro design.
This phone would make your FBI agent very happy
I think you are doing a disservice by calling a 450$ phone "midrange", its up there with expensive phones. And i get it that there are 900-1000$+ phones, but those are basically uber tier for enthusiasts.
Linus the gnome
No thank you !
what ltt vid was he watching?
Give it a year and we can forget about the cutouts for sure. and btw Linus can bitch about most things, but this phone seems like a really very good deal for its price. Otherwise let's remember how people talked trash about the Pixel 3 for having a notch, then not even 2 years later came the iPhone 12 with an EVEN BIGGER effin notch and everybody is shutting the f up about it. As a Pixel 3 XL owner I am sorely offended, because when I got it even the sales guy in the store tried to talk me out of it "cuz of the notch". I love the Pixel 3 XL and I don't even want a new phone. Probably love it more then any of my 7 iPhones combined over 10 years.
4:21 it's not apple good yet... Really? That's how you wanted to end the year? 🙄
would have been better in a pixel. they haven't updated their cameras in years because they want to do it with software. well now they can finally put a decent camera in the back and play with their software improving the selfie cam.
