WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.839
can you even see it brandon um on camera

00:00:03.600 --> 00:00:09.599
sort of like is it like a little square i keep wanting to say fingerprint sensor

00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:17.119
but it's not it's a selfie camera an under screen selfie camera this

00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:20.240
is the zte axon 25g and

00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:22.080
i don't know what's craziest about this

00:00:20.240 --> 00:00:28.480
thing the fact that it has an under screen selfie camera so there's

00:00:25.119 --> 00:00:31.679
no pop up no notch no hole punch

00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:33.040
nothing an under screen an in-display

00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:37.040
selfie camera or the fact that it's like a mid-range

00:00:36.160 --> 00:00:40.079
priced phone at 450 us dollars so let's wait for it

00:00:39.680 --> 00:00:46.000
to fire oh that's interesting i can already

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:49.360
totally see it brandon look at this there it is right there it actually

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:56.879
looks like a notch or uh or a hole punch

00:00:53.360 --> 00:01:00.000
but they say the display goes over

00:00:56.879 --> 00:01:03.600
top of it what else is in this box hey

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:05.439
my wish is granted oh look at that

00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:12.320
thank you credit to zte at least they still include a headphone adapter

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:14.799
nice apple couldn't it was too hard

00:01:12.320 --> 00:01:17.360
got a type a to type c and then probably a walmart

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:20.799
yeah that's really hard apple wasn't able to do that either not a north

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:24.560
american one but hey good effort is that sick or what oh it's a wave yeah

00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:31.200
that looks really good i've seen honor do some really cool stuff like this but

00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:35.280
that looks like it doesn't look tacky you know

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:39.360
it does it looks really cool i wonder it's a little bit different on each film

00:01:37.119 --> 00:01:42.399
you know what else is cool this segue to our sponsor

85 off dr phone at the link in the video description thank you

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.879
dr phone or wondershare rather for sponsoring today's video

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:15.520
there's kind of like a like a shadow

00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:20.640
there it's a little kind of square and then it's almost like a

00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:25.599
like a dotted line square underneath it can you even see it brandon

00:02:22.239 --> 00:02:26.560
um on camera sort of like is it like a

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:29.840
little square it's a tiny little square yeah i can can

00:02:29.200 --> 00:02:36.000
you make it out kind of see it okay oh yeah there you go

00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:39.120
got it oh yeah yeah yeah okay

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.760
but wait hold on so let's fire up some

00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:45.840
excellent high quality tech videos on youtube

00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:48.160
mono speaker i mean those are the kinds of compromises that you make when you're

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:57.920
going with a mid-range device yes okay i see it

00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:59.519
oh interesting they did a ton of work on

00:02:57.920 --> 00:03:02.640
the materials of the display in order to enable the selfie camera to

00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:06.560
work with a display over top of it so they've

00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:12.959
got the cover glass polarizer packing glass all that's pretty normal then there's a

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:15.120
transparent cathode special OLED material

00:03:13.519 --> 00:03:18.080
a transparent matrix and then the baseboard glass underneath it so that's

00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:21.920
those three ones that are in between what would already be clear

00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:25.920
that's designed for additional transparency now if you guys

00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:29.280
saw our Linus tech tips video checking out the transparent OLED tv

00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:32.680
from lg you'll know that transparent is more

00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:36.000
like translucent i think that transparent tv

00:03:35.040 --> 00:03:41.760
allows 30 of the light through somewhere in the 30 to 40 range

00:03:39.200 --> 00:03:46.080
in order to build this they had to work on a special pixel matrix

00:03:44.239 --> 00:03:49.440
so i think what we're seeing right now when we zoom this content

00:03:47.519 --> 00:03:53.280
and you can see it right brandon so it looks kind of like

00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:58.400
low res in that spot it's like faded a little bit like yeah

00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:02.959
yeah when i get up close to it it's very obvious

00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:04.879
because it's just the colors kind of off

00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:08.400
and there's like the screen door effect i can see right through it

00:04:06.480 --> 00:04:14.400
but from this distance if i'm actually looking at the center of the screen

00:04:10.640 --> 00:04:16.720
it's there i can see it but boy is that

00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:19.759
ever less noticeable than a notch or something like that in the middle of my

00:04:18.400 --> 00:04:23.360
freaking content it's obvious why apple hasn't shipped it

00:04:21.840 --> 00:04:28.639
yet it's not it's not apple good yet but it's like

00:04:26.479 --> 00:04:33.520
it's usable this one's got eight gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of storage it's got a

00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:36.479
64 megapixel main shooter actually i don't know how many megapixels the

00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:39.840
selfie cam is but i doubt how many megapixels it is is going to be

00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:45.040
the main uh bottleneck there it's got a quadruple

00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:49.759
camera set up which is pretty cool i guess you got that optical

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:54.080
zoom ability and all that good stuff uh usb type-c i don't know if it's got

00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:57.600
dual sim so we'll go ahead and pop this out and have a look oh micro sd

00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:01.360
nice you can go dual sim or micro sd plus a

00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:06.400
sim thank you very much zte for giving a crap about people who like to expand the

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:11.039
storage in their phones it's so funny how some of these features

00:05:08.320 --> 00:05:14.240
end up becoming mid-range features because well rich people would just buy

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:19.039
a phone with more storage in it wouldn't they playing around with brightness the lower

00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:22.639
the brightness level the less noticeable it is

00:05:20.479 --> 00:05:26.400
and interestingly the screen doesn't get crazy bright which is something that i

00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:29.520
might expect from a more value-oriented phone so it doesn't have wireless

00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:36.240
charging although it does support 30 watt fast charging and it's running a snapdragon 765 g

00:05:34.320 --> 00:05:40.400
chipset so that's one of the ways that they were able to get 5g connectivity

00:05:38.400 --> 00:05:44.479
into this thing at a reasonable price because with the premium chipset these

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:47.280
days at least until the 888 launches which i think is happening really soon

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:51.600
it might even have happened by the time this video goes live but for now 765g is the way to go of

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:56.880
course whether or not you can see content over top of the camera

00:05:54.720 --> 00:06:00.240
is only half of the equation we've got to fire up the camera

00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:04.000
and see if the camera can see your face through the content

00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:08.319
this is it this is going to be my first look at myself

00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:13.680
through a display it's awful it's like there's a big hazy smudgy film

00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:16.560
wow that is

00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:20.800
oh man that is something so you can see the display is completely powered down

00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:24.319
in the area above the camera so that's going to help

00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:26.880
with light transmission but just like we learned when we looked at lg's

00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:32.000
transparent OLED tv they're still elements of the

00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.680
display like even just the wiring that has to be done to every

00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:40.560
pixel that you can't make clear or like not

00:06:38.080 --> 00:06:44.319
completely clear at least not right now so lowering the pixel density helps

00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:48.720
that's why those oleds are 1080p right now at what are

00:06:47.039 --> 00:06:52.560
they 55 inch i think 55 inch 1080p there is a hit to image

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:58.080
quality there's more than just a camera built in here though so there's an ambient light

00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:01.680
sensor under display sound i don't even know

00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:06.000
what that means i mean it only had mono sound when i played back something in youtube anyway so if

00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:10.479
it if it does have a stereo effect it's not very good under display fingerprint and under

00:07:08.960 --> 00:07:14.160
display fingerprint well that okay that we've seen before and those

00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:18.000
under display fingerprint sensors were very obvious kind of like this at first

00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:23.440
like you could really see them now you can't see them at all and

00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:26.240
it's only been a couple short years if this is if this is sort of the beginning

00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:31.360
of where we're going with this technology i've got high hopes that we could bid

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:34.639
notch's idea sooner rather than later play around

00:07:32.960 --> 00:07:39.680
with the rear camera a little bit actually i kind of missed that whole uh

00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:42.319
just putting a second OLED display on the back and just using your main camera

00:07:41.520 --> 00:07:45.919
for selfies concept if someone like samsung had done

00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:52.160
that i think it would have been very interesting zte still has some work to do on their

00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:55.440
processing but um this is not

00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:58.319
bad dtsx ultra 3d sound

00:07:55.440 --> 00:08:02.160
apparently now hold on just a second here because i didn't even

00:07:59.440 --> 00:08:06.800
pick up stereo in the youtube app for absolute maximum speeds

00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:08.879
yeah okay that's definitely a

00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:14.240
bottom firing speaker we fired up the chinese website and apparently

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:15.599
it's the wide angle the 64 megapixel

00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:19.039
main shooter the uh there's a two megapixel depth

00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:22.400
sensor and then a macro lens so that's what the four

00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:29.440
different lenses are here does it have image stabilization on the

00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:34.880
pedals uh yes pretty well spec for a 450

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:34.880
device hey it's the blurry sulfonator

00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:42.519
okay i mean

00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:44.560
hey some people go and apply a

00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:50.160
blurrification beauty filter to all their pictures anyway brandon

00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:52.080
so am i not beautiful do you not think

00:08:50.160 --> 00:08:57.440
i'm beautiful brandon with this blurred face look at how all

00:08:54.959 --> 00:09:01.760
my imperfections have been smoothed out just like my imperfect end to this video

subscribe to ShortCircuit and uh all our other channels actually

00:09:04.160 --> 00:09:12.560
that's a lot that's a big that's a big burden how about just ShortCircuit and tech rent okay deal deal and tech
