Mar 11, 2019

Vivo has surprised the smartphone industry last year but launching the Vivo NEX smartphone with a pop-up selfie camera. This allowed the phone to sport a notch-less display. It appears that the company may launch a smartphone with dual pop-up selfie cameras in the near future since it has already filed a patent for such a design.

Vivo has been recently granted by China’s National Intellectual Property Administration. The patent was filed on May 23, 2018 and it was approved in the previous week on March 1. After introducing the pop-up selfie camera design on the Vivo NEX last year, newer phones from the company such as Vivo X27 series and Vivo V15 series can be seen sporting the same design. It appears that the dual pop-up selfie camera design could be reserved for the upcoming flagship phone from Vivo.

The illustrations present in the patent filing reveals that the phone will be sporting a notch-less display design like the Vivo NEX. The front image of the phone shows that its display is surrounded by slightly thick chin and slimmer bezels. The display could be of AMOLED type and it could be equipped with an in-screen fingerprint reader.

The top-left corner of the top edge of the smartphone has a slightly wider pop-up camera unit as compared to the Vivo NEX. It accommodates two camera sensors. A 3.5mm audio jack also seems to be present on the top edge of the phone. The bottom edge of the smartphone seems to feature a SIM tray, a USB-C port and an external speaker.

Interestingly, when Vivo had showcased the notch-less screen Vivo APEX 2019 concept earlier this year, people were thinking about the position of its selfie camera since no details on it were shared. The handset is expected to launch with a commercial name in the near future. Could it be arriving with a dual pop-up selfie camera setup as seen in the above illustrations. It is advisable to wait for further reports before drawing coming to any conclusion.
