This implementation of under display camera is a joke, you can see the square patch when viewing content, it's more irritating than a notch and only slightly better than a cut out. The quality of the camera is also terrible.

The saddest thing is that due to the fundamental limitations of the tech it will not improve significantly, the light input to the camera will always be compromised, and the screen and associated calibration will always be blemished in this area.

Looks like I am keeping my OnePlus 7 Pro for as long as possible, but hey at least it will be cheaper to manufacture than motorized cameras.

Daniel, 28 Dec 2020Why you all still using audio jack, use bluetooth man... Audio jack is out...old man...A lot of people have good enough ears to hear compression damage. Electronic metal/rock with heavy distortion will have off-key buzzing, squeals, or fuzz-outs depending on the codec. Maybe you're old?

Anyways, I still have a couple of new-looking Axon 7 phones lying around because the software updates were so crappy that they became useless in less than a year. The second phone was for Cyanogenmod/LineageOS development but ZTE changed their mind about supporting that and locked the bootloader. I'd hesitate to buy a new ZTE even if it had a microSD slot, headphone jack, and North American radio bands.

I don't see what's so bad about those selfies (apart from light problems)
My S9+ only takes 5.2MP and they are awful

Shroud Dr.Disrespect, 23 Dec 2020If you watch JERRYRIG latest video about UDC of ZTE axon20, we can see the selfie image quali... moreIt is FIRST-GEN tech. What do you expect? Every tech needs time to mature.

Also, this is ZTE. They were never known for their cameras. Expect better results from top-tier companies due to using better hardware & improved software correction.

An unfinished product imho. But we must realize that the tech is not yet there to make the camera invisible under the screen.
All in all a midrange phone that should cost in the 300-350 euro range tops. And even in this price range you have better options.
The battery is average, the camera is average, so is the screen. And what's up with a nearly 7" screen. Who carries those bricks around. I wouldn't!
I don't see this selling particularly well in Europe. Not with the likes of Xiaomi, Redmi, Poco, Realme, Oneplus and even the affordable Pixels. Hell, for a 100 euro more i'd rather buy a used Iphone 11 than this.
Axon 10 was their best phone to date and it just might be their best phone ever!

If you watch JERRYRIG latest video about UDC of ZTE axon20,
we can see the selfie image quality from UDC is not that good.

The image will broken and has splatter of light if you take a selfie under the light sources. Also not sharp in normal conditions.

What's the point of having the camera under the display if it isn't positioned in the center of the screen?

I'd have hoped that being able to hide the selfie would have led to a smaller device, 1080p on a display that large is pushing it anyway.
