In a new development in the smartphone market, Chinese Android makers are reportedly testing devices with under-display selfie cameras and 3D facial recognition technology. This luxury feature has so far been limited to Apple's iPhones with Face ID, but it seems that other manufacturers are aiming to introduce it as well.
According to a report from tipster Digital Chat Station, the implementation of under-screen cameras for biometric authentication is in the works within Chinese smartphone companies. Although specific details regarding the brands and models involved have not been revealed yet, this development indicates a potential shift towards advanced facial recognition technology on Android devices.
While 3D face recognition remains a rarity on Android smartphones, Honor has been one of the few brands to offer this feature, as seen in the recent Magic7 Pro. Additionally, the emergence of under-display selfie cameras in Android devices, such as the ZTE nubia Z70S Ultra, hints at a future where both these technologies could be integrated into a single device.
It will be interesting to observe how this technology evolves and which manufacturer will be the first to release a smartphone combining under-display selfie cameras with 3D facial recognition. As advancements continue in this field, users can expect more secure and convenient biometric authentication options in upcoming Android devices.
