Are under-display selfie cameras coming to Android phones? Several Chinese smartphone makers are testing new hardware that combines under-display selfie cameras with 3D facial recognition, according to known leaker Digital Chat Station. This could lead to sleeker designs without notches or punch-holes, and better security for Android users.
Under-display camera technology has been around for years, but it struggles with image quality. By pairing it with 3D face scanning, a feature rarely found on Android phones, manufacturers want to improve both design and device security.
Most Android devices usually rely on fingerprint sensors or basic 2D facial recognition. Adding 3D scanning could make unlocking phones, making mobile payments, and accessing apps more secure and consistent.
No brands or specific models have been mentioned. The move highlights growing interest among Chinese tech companies to push beyond standard phone layouts.
If released commercially, this could change how users experience smartphone security and screen aesthetics. Expect to see big Chinese brands like Huawei, OPPO, vivo, and Xiaomi with the technology.
