A smartphone bearing two punch holes in the display could soon be a reality, as the ZTE has patented the new layout. Some details related to the patent appeared on China’s patent registration authority – CNIPA. A pictorial depiction of the patent in the attached image clears all the questions. The new layout involves two circular punch holes side by side in the middle of the display.

It would not be surprising if the company incorporates dual front-facing camera carrying a wide-angle and a depth sensor along with the primary sensor. There are fair chances for the addition of the in-ear speaker in any punch hole. However, minimal bezels are visible across all sides of the devices, whereas usual speaker grill on the bottom and physical buttons on either side are visible.

Placement for the vertical dual rear camera module is carved along with an LED flash. Considering the recent ZTE launches, the new design appears to be coming soon in the market. It will be good to see some variety after the single punch hole displays used in devices such as Galaxy S10, Honor View 20 and few others.
