Huawei foldable phone patent shows unique solution to hide camera bump and reduce thickness of device

Another Huawei foldable phone patent was included by the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO). According to the patent illustration, the machine adopts an outward-folding design, with an obvious crease in the middle, a protruding rectangular module on the back, and four camera sensors.

But the interesting part of the patent is that it brings a solution that can reduce the thickness of the device when it is folded. According to the picture, the phone has a notch on the right side, so the protruding camera module is on the left side, which overlaps when folded, thereby reducing the thickness of the device when folded.

Normally, the foldable mobile phone will shake when placed on a flat surface. This design provides a solution to this problem. It has a special cutout just to place the camera module. This is a very practical solution, but it remains to be seen whether it will affect the durability of the display in any way.

While reducing the thickness of the phone, it also protects the camera lens when it is dropped. Outside of the camera cutout, Huawei’s foldable phone has a typical design, with a hinge in the middle and a large display on the front, which may have an obvious crease.

Although it is not yet certain, considering that the original Mate Xs has a large camera bump, this may be a potential design for the successor of Huawei Mate Xs. In any case, since it is still in the patent stage, it is unclear whether Huawei will use such a design for commercial products, but it is interesting to know that Huawei has a unique design on hand.
