Looks like one of those useless crappy features that phones used to have 20 years ago.
E-waste for the braindead consumer.
It’s a concept phone, I don’t think it’s intended for production.
Honestly it’s good to see a smartphone company to try something new.
And the first use case the marketing department presents in the video is to creepily film women in public without their consent. What a time to be alive.
It was in vogue for a little while in China to have a camera pop out, that I like, this seems excessive
I’d like to see a phone with the camera aimed out the top, bottom, or side so we can lose the optics wart on the backs of current phones.
I believe one the Chinese OEMs made a phone exactly like that. The camera extended from the top when needed.
Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the OEM or even the model brand.
EDIT: Another poster linked some models:

I would think the downside to this would be water resistance. (Obviously the original post as well).
The robot looked at the woman in the red dress.
You shouldn’t look at the woman in the red dress.
Now he’s dead.
Silly robot.
