Huawei Honor View20 and Samsung A8s have hole-punch cameras
The screens of the Samsung A8s and Huawei Honor View20 both feature a small circular space for the component. Both Samsung and Huawei claimed to be first to launch the notchless camera design. Samsung was the world's most successful smartphone brand in the July-to-September quarter, when it shipped 72.2 million units, according to research company IDC. Huawei came second, according to the same report, with 52 million devices shipped over the same period. Samsung has lost substantial market share in the mid- and lower-tiers to Chinese rivals over the past year, while Huawei faces claims it broke US sanctions on Iran and poses a wider security threat to the West. Huawei also claimed the Honor View20's main camera, on its rear, represents another world-first.
