ZTE says their A20 5G will be the first smartphone with an under-screen camera

In the quest to create a completely bezel-less smartphone, manufacturers have been working on under-screen camera tech for the last couple of years. While we’ve already seen prototypes from Samsung Display, OPPO, and Xiaomi, the under-screen camera tech is yet to make its way to consumers. But that might change soon. In a recent post on Chinese social media platform Weibo, ZTE’s President for Mobile Devices, Ni Fei, has confirmed that the company will be the first to launch a smartphone with an under-screen camera.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, the post itself doesn’t reveal any details about the upcoming smartphone or its launch date. However, if you look closely, you can see that Fei used a device called ‘ZTE A20 5G under-screen camera’ to make the post. This confirms that the ZTE A20 5G will be the first production smartphone to feature an under-screen camera sensor.

While the company hasn’t revealed any details about the ZTE A20 5G, a renowned Chinese tipster has managed to unearth the State Radio Regulation of China (SRRC) certification listing for the device. The certification listing reveals that the device will go by the model number ZTE A2121 and it will, most likely, be a successor to the flagship ZTE Axon 10s Pro 5G (A2020 SP) which was launched earlier this year.

The publication also speculates that the ZTE A20 5G will make use of the under-screen camera solution from China-based Visionox, which started mass production of the tech last month. Visionox will also be supplying its under-screen camera tech to other Chinese OEMs like Xiaomi, OPPO, and Huawei, and we expect to see more smartphones with its under-screen camera solution in the coming months.
