I can’t wait til under display cameras get perfected as they are my favorite solution to the whole notch/hole punch/Dynamic Island situation. I definitely think pop up cameras are neat too but having more moving parts in a phone, especially like that would probably result in a broken and glitched out front facing camera at some pint, despite the supposed durability. Also, having fans on a phone is a neat way to limit heat, keeping not only the phone cool but the battery. A hot battery = a degraded battery so having the fan is quite nice. Idk if these fans actually help cool down the battery but if they do that’s pretty sweet.

I still use Asus 7 Pro with a flip-able camera module and it is the best solution. No notch or hole in the screen. Main camera, which is always way better than front-facing camera in any phone, acting as a selfie camera. Wide-angle camera is very useful when you want to take a selfie with a large group of people. And flash light is also available. Moreover flip-able module allows to take a panorama photos very quickly and reliable, it scans around in less than 2 seconds. And last, but not least, sometimes I rotate camera module by just 45 degrees to conveniently take a photo of tall buildings or a photo from below. Shame that the concept never became popular and it is completely abandoned now.

I wonder how much time will it take for other companies to make under the screen front cameras, but still the no camera bump thing was even more amazing for me

[@niupeter1064]

The underscreen camera is not anything new, it appeared years ago. problem is that with higher resolution, the camera image quality significantly drops. Most phone companies couldn't bear with it, cuz normal users still cares about that😂

[@sainigaurav11]

That back design with no bumps is awesome, can't wait to see other manufacturers do it too. Love your vids, Zack.

[@Aomicplane]

My LG V50 has had it's cameras behind the glass and a smooth bumpless backside since 2019 lol. No clue why camera bumps were ever even a thing since clearly it was already possible to design them with a flat smooth back surface if they wanted to.

[@OctaneStreet]

I love how this phone looks. I'm such a sucker for squared off phone designs. Fell in love with the (now discontinued) Razer phones 1 & 2, one of the Sony phones, the new S24 Ultra, and now this one.

[@TheXuenBox]

Behind the glass tech is crazy! Love the sleek design!

[@demomiumgaming]

Definitely looks futuristic, I especially love the lack of camera bump. Even my iPhone 7 has the uncanny ability to collect scratches across the camera whenever I put it down on a rough surface, can't imagine its any better for more the latest phones

[@raffyb]

It's insane how much a simple change can make so much difference toward the overall charm of a phone. Well done Red Magic indeed.

It's kinda funny that the company whose first phone had huge lens attachments as a selling point now has the smallest camera bump as a selling point

Pretty awesome to see the under the screen front camera getting better! I've been wanting a phone like that forever. Had one of the pop up motor ones a few years back but this is so much cleaner and innovative. Thanks for superb vids as usual.

[@robonxt]

I really like the seamless/flat design of it. I think the bump on the flash is to prevent the flash from lighting up the glass for the cameras and causing huge bloom. For the teardown video, could you mention about the ergonomics of holding it? Like does it feel super heavy when holding it one handed, and if the corners are sharp?

[@jaivanttitus]

Bro you are a genius!

[@emmacramer4894]

I have been watching your videos on and off for years. I found them super useful when I'm looking at build quality for a new phone purchase, but I have always hated the sound of scratching the outside of the phones. So much so that I will either always skip that part of the video or If I want to hear what you said during those parts but I have to rewind, turn on closed captioning, and mute the video (plus undo all that after). Would you consider adding a visual and audible warming (could be a specific sound clip or something)?

[@ankaka222]

Under-display camera quality has improved very significantly from what I last remember! Holy hell that camera being usable is definitely a pretty big improvement! Remember the old under-display camera phones where the selfie camera pictures were so soft, they were practically fuzzy!

[@PKpaula425]

That camera under the screen is such a neat idea; I was waiting for the downsides but overall this is just a super solid looking phone. A happy early new year to you as well!

[@brennanIX]

It's poorer photo quality wasn't too huge of a deal, either. It is a front facing camera after all, which is more of a "secondary" camera, anyways, which nobody uses to take "high quality" photos. For the purpose of face recognition, making a quick video call, or making a funny face with a friend, it's perfectly capable.

[@sebastienongtone8323]

It's crazy how the hidden camera looks that good as well as the flattened camera on the backside! Having the audio jack is a plus from me.

[@kierenblizzard618]

Honestly love the flat camera section on the back. My biggest gripe with almost every smart phone I've used in recent years

[@mias2128]

The jump from the sd gen 2 to 3 in terms of performance is massive At that price range, its really cool to see the headphone jack again. Kind of sad that expandable storage pass the $200 mark are out of the question though.

[@jaystarr6571]

Isn't there a 1TB version of the RM9?

It’s awesome to see the quality of under display cameras are getting better. Can’t wait to see more companies adopt and improve on it.

[@teosentzikas5787]

It will be interesting how long it takes for the more major companies to integrate under screen front facing camera's, and how they will look, but I'm sure you'll cover them for us! Keep up the good work!

No camera bump with a fingerprint scanner is quite nice. Apple adopting this tech in 2030-- hilarious! Apple: Yesterday's tech with tomorrow's prices. Great vid. Love the channel!

personally have never used a phone for gaming but this is definitely a interesting one with the internal self camera. can't wait to see the teardown to see the beautiful internals of this well crafted machine. Goal for the next year is to get into a better standing health-wise so that if and when a child enters my life I will be around for them as long as possible. keep up the great work you do sir.

[@ITheIncredibleFishI]

Same I'm just not interested on gaming on a phone. But I completely agree with you, the headphone jack, the hidden front camera and the flush camera on the outside is really what makes the phone interesting to me. It's basically everything that currently bothers me on my galaxy s21 ultra. I've looked at their website and the company basically belongs or is part of nubia, which makes non gaming phones. Sadly their phones do not have a flush camera on the outside (because of the lenses and sensors) and no headphone jack as far as I could see... But it has the hidden front camera!

[@mycelia_ow]

I have an ASUS gaming phone I don't use for gaming, and is no less amazing for normal use. Best thing about these phones is they have unusually large batteries and better wifi.

[@Wistbacka]

Ngl, I love the concept of truly bezeless screen and the under panel camera. I hope computer screens can implement that and once and for all remove the issue of never looking the person in the eyes during video conference calls

[@Grimripper62]

I'm actually impressed by this phone, I haven't gotten a new phone since I got my iPhone SE (1st Gen) because I got sick of all the features being removed from modern phones with the only thing replacing the features being anti repair practices. So if the tear down looks at least moderately repairable I might consider getting one.

[@kiomu1559]

Amazing how a little flat cube can look so nice and sleek. I didn't expect to see a camera completly hidden under the screen this early too. Technology is evolving like crazy

[@SheikAshii]

The folding phone had it a few years ago now I think

[@YouCanCallMeZig]

I love the look of this phone. I'm glad companies are going back to flat faced screens instead of curved ones. I've been using a pixel 6 pro and i've grown to loathe the curved screen. This phone could be a front runner for my next device. Great videos as always, and Happy New Year.

[@TheWorldIsRoundItReallyIs]

Been watching your tear downs for years, appreciate them immensely.. Tech seems to move real fast these days now.

That's a seriously impressive phone - The under screen sensors are truly a generation ahead, and I'm going to look for some benchmarks and details on the cooling system. Thanks for another wild and interesting video Jerry!
