** During the late 2010s, some phone manufacturers have begun putting the camera in a notch or punch out, more closely aligning the camera with the screen, though it is still visible.

** Around 2022 ZTE came out with the Axon 40, integrating a front facing camera behind the display. [https://www.theverge.com/23158774/zte-axon-40-ultra-under-display-camera-screen-specs According to an article] on ''[[The Verge]]'', it is noticeable if specifically looked for, but otherwise rather hard to spot.
