Another day, another smartphone maker looking into how to avoid the dreaded notch-- this time around it is the turn of Asus ZenFone 6, a flagship all-screen device with a flipping camera.
The idea is admittedly not a first, since we'd seen something similar in the recently launched Samsung Galaxy A80. The implementation in the ZenFone 6 is a bit different, but it still makes for a clever solution to creating a bezel-free smartphone display. In the case of the Asus handset, the camera rotates by 180-degrees using a custom stepper motor, and the company says the camera automatically rotates back in case the phone detects it has been dropped.
