Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi launched its new device, Redmi K30, in China earlier this week. The new phone comes with a 120Hz display, Snapdragon 765G, 64-megapixel quad cameras and more. The device also features a dual punch-hole camera setup on the front. Now, an interesting tid-bit about the Redmi K30 camera has surfaced online.
The Redmi K30 smartphone equips a dual punch-hole front camera setup integrated into the display. However, the two cams are separate sensors that are ‘joined’ by a software setting. The phone has three sets of options to customize the dual punch-hole setup on the front. This was spotted by leakster @IceUniverse.
Love it or hate it, the punch-hole front camera design is here to stay. However, smartphone makers have been enabling software-based methods to hide their appearance. This doesn’t get rid of the punch-hole from the display, but it will black out the display area around the top of the screen for a more traditional display appearance.
