Huawei, the China-based smartphone manufacturer, has had a wonderful run in terms of smartphone sales in the past couple of years. It has also managed to establish its presence in the premium smartphone segment, thanks to its Mate and P-series devices.
The company hasn’t shied away from experimenting with smartphone design. It recently launched its first foldable smartphone — Huawei Mate X, which has a tri-fold design. Now, the company is reportedly considering a smartphone with dual displays.
A new patent from Huawei has been published by EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office) and the WIPO (World Intellectual Property Office), which was filed on 28th November 2018. The patent shows a smartphone with a secondary display on the back panel. LetsGoDigital has created 3D renders of the same to give a better look at the device.
It shows a smartphone carrying a triple camera module in the top-center position, with sensors arranged horizontally, along with an LED flash and laser autofocus. It seems that the phone has a periscope zoom support, similar to what is expected in the P30-series.
Just below the camera module, there’s a mini display which could be helpful in taking high-quality portrait shots or selfies with the phone’s advanced cameras. However, other smartphone makers have already launched smartphones with dual displays, including Vivo Nex Dual Display and Nubia X.
Thanks to the secondary display on the back panel for helping in taking selfies, there are no camera sensors on the front panel, allowing the company to offer a full-screen display without any kind of notches or a sliding mechanism.
Meanwhile, Huawei is all set to launch its latest flagship smartphone series — Huawei P30, which also includes P30 Pro and P30 Lite. The launch event is scheduled to take place on 26th March in Paris, France. The company is also launching its Huawei Nova 4e smartphone today in China.
