In recent years, the smartphone industry has grown faster than ever and, to attract consumer attention, major manufacturers have focused primarily on performance and less on design. This resulted in less novelty in the external appearance of the various devices and therefore a general homogenization.
Patented Realme smartphone with oval-shaped camera module
Hence, to overcome this problem, the Realme brand has just issued a patent with some small changes.
The new patent shows us a device with the rear camera module that adopts a unique oval design with a total of 5 cameras. Among these, the rectangular-shaped camera is expected to be the one with a periscope lens. We then find two cameras and two flashes.
Moving on to the front, the smartphone appears to show a flat screen with a very small aperture front lens in the upper left corner of the screen and a thicker than usual bottom bezel. So we are certainly not in front of a flagship.
That said, the fact that there is a periscope camera suggests that it could be a mid-range with a particular focus on the photographic sector. This would not be the first device of its kind, indeed brands like Vivo have made it their workhorse.
Anyway, what do you think of this retro design? Do you like it or does it not seem so innovative?
