How Under-Display Camera works

Under-Display Camera is a technology that reduces the pixel density of the display and places the camera at the bottom of the display panel without a separate hole, increasing the light transmittance.

Specifications and uses of the Under-Display Camera

Under-Display Camera uses 4 MP, fixed focus (FF) and F1.8. Since the pixels of the front camera are 4 MP, it is recommended to use it for video calls and face recognition unlocking. High-definition selfies can be taken through the cover-screen camera, and for seamless connectivity between the cover and the main screen only the basic photo/video shooting mode is provided in Under-Display Camera.

To access the Under-Display Camera, run the camera with the folder screen open and select the round arrow in the lower right corner, it will change to Under-Display Camera selfie mode:

  • Some camera features are not available.
  • The image quality of Under-Display Camera may be lower than that of other cameras.
  • To take clearer selfies, it is recommended to use the cover screen camera or the rear camera of the Galaxy Z Fold4.

Improvements compared to previous models
