Infinity O display?

A fair amount of rumoring about a new kind of display from Samsung.

I have no idea what it might be, but the basics of the rumors is that there's a bezel-free display with a hole cut in the corner for the camera. (I'd regard that a lot of buzz-building for no particularly good purpose.)

It is curious that Microvision's PicoP touts "infinite focus"

Who knows... something to watch.

FCC Testing 3 new Samsung Phones


Infinity-O display assembly possibly revealed in new leak

Samsung teased a device with such a display panel even before it revealed the Infinity-O. It teased the Galaxy A8s during the launch event for the Galaxy A9s and Galaxy A6s in China. The teaser showed that the display doesn’t have a notch. It was mentioned in subsequent reports that the display would actually have a hole to accommodate the front camera.

The display silhouette that Samsung revealed at SDC 2018 essentially confirmed that to be the case. It has developed a new type of display with a hole in the corner for the front camera. This would allow the company to maximize screen real estate even on devices that don’t get the New Infinity display (New Infinity is the all-screen version with an under-screen camera). That would likely be reserved for the premium handsets.
