As most of the smartphone manufacturers are working to place the front camera under-display, Honor has also jumped into the pursuit. While talking about the innovations in a recent interview, Honor president George Zhao confirms the development of in-display camera technology. Honor has already developed a prototype device featuring the under display camera though it is currently experiencing some problems.

He believes the under-display camera technology is not mature enough to exist on the Honor devices which are coming soon. However, he considers placing the new technology on the relevant commercial products in the near future.

According to Zhao, the punch hole display will become an essential part of the mainstream smartphone design in the future. Various devices such as Samsung Galaxy S10 and Honor 20 Pro already carries the new technology. Honor is the first smartphone manufacturer to use the punch hole camera design on the LCD display.

A few other manufacturers have already patented their own take on the new technology. Samsung and Xiaomi are also developing their own under display camera technology. The manufacturers are looking forward to innovating ways to improve the screen-to-body ratio on smartphones.
