Smartphones has evolved in terms of technology i.e. from 16:9 aspect ratio, to the notches for housing the front & or achieving the higher screen to body ratio, to making it as small as a pin and introducing the pop-up mechanism or the punch hole to get rid of the notch upfront.
Well in terms of innovation Chinese brands have been doing some series work like the Vivo, OPPO or Huawei. Vivo introduced the in-display fingerprint scanner or the punch-hole cutout from Huawei, or the 10X Zoom (OPPO) unlike the big tech companies i.e. Apple, Samsung etc.

There’s no telling when we will see the first phone with the under-screen selfie camera.
