Living continues to work on its next devices and the latest news indicates that the Vivo Apex all-screen will offer two different models according to its front camera system.
Vivo will offer two camera systems with the Vivo Apex
El Vivo Apex It is the next all-screen device to be offered by the Chinese sister company of OnePlus and Oppo. In a world increasingly dominated by on-screen notches, Vivo seems to have chosen the approach that, in principle, all manufacturers seek. Reduce the frames as much as possible, offer a front in which to show everything and do without anything.
The good or bad that ends up being the new Vivo Apex It remains to be seen, but several things were known about the new device. One that looked like it wasn't going to be tweaked is its frontal camera. Vivo had opted for a mechanism pop-up, so it would be necessary to "take out" the camera to be able to take a selfie. In this way, it would not be necessary to introduce those sensors in the front, forcing to use a notch; but everything would be stored in its own module. An ingenious way to solve the problem.
Of course, it is not a perfect way either. The main flaw in this class of solutions is that the more "loose" parts and the more different mechanisms a device has, the easier it is for it to break. In addition, it is a solution that can alienate many potential buyers who, as with the notches, simply do not like this idea. Therefore, since Living have come to the conclusion that they should offer two camera options, and that's exactly what they are going to do.
Therefore, if the first model (and the one that will be mainly promoted) has a camera pop-up and its own mechanism, how is the second model going to work? In Live they will take the same solution as in Xiaomi with the devices Mi Mix, placing the front camera in the lower right corner of the device, on the chin. In this way, the sensor can be kept in the front, it is not inserted into the screen and the same design is maintained. On the contrary, we are talking about an equally controversial solution, which will not convince many people due to how easy it is to lock the camera in that position. Each consumer must decide which is their favorite option with the Vivo Apex, which will at least be concerned not to force a single solution.
