Huawei patents new smartphone with Virtual buttons and Under-Display camera
Huawei’s plan is working well with the new smartphone launches and patents, the company has added another patent in the list for the future smartphone, this new patent features an under-display camera and virtual buttons on the side.
According to LetsGoDigital, the new patent was filed with the CNIPA (China National Intellectual Property Administration) back in November 2019, which was finally granted on June 16, 2020.
At the same time, the patent is also included in the WIPO (World Intellectual Property Office) database. Included are 14 images showing two phone models, which differ only slightly.
At the front, there is no pop-up or notch camera visible, this new smartphone is a full-screen Huawei phone with narrow screen edges, which indicates this phone to have an under-screen selfie camera.
However, the side of this device is special. No physical buttons are visible. Instead, the display continues to run, exactly where the power button and volume buttons are normally located. It seems to be an alternative to the expensive Quad-Curve Overflow display with Side Touch technology, which we know from the high-end Huawei P40 series.
At the rear we see a camera system with three circles. This can be a triple camera, similar to the P Smart Pro – where the flash is placed under the triple camera. However, it can also be ruled out that we are looking at a dual camera with an LED flash – similar to the configuration of the Huawei P Smart 2020. Furthermore, the bottom offers space for a USB-C connection.
Additionally, there are also rumors that the Huawei Mate 40 expected later this year will be the first device with an under-screen camera. Normally, the high-end Mate smartphones are expected around October.
The FutureNet World 2025 event just completed in London, bringing together over 700 industry leaders to talk about the future of network technology. The yearly gathering attracts top executives from global telecom companies, standards organizations, and technology suppliers. For the first time ever, the event created a special “Intelligent Network Best Practice Award” – and Huawei won the prize.
The company stands for its innovative work on smart, self-managing networks. Huawei’s winning technology helps telecom companies run their networks more intelligently with less human intervention. Their solution includes smart digital assistants designed for network maintenance, improving customer experience, and business operations.
These digital helpers fall into two main categories – the Mate series and the Spirit series. The technology has already been rolled out in many countries, showing impressive results across different types of networks including IP, optical, wireless, and core systems. Speaking at the event, Wang Shaosen, who leads Huawei’s smart network solutions, shared the company’s vision: “We’re committed to developing technology that makes networks smarter.
This will help telecom companies succeed with advanced 5G services and prepare for the future of 6G connectivity.
