12 may 2017, Samsung filed a patent with the world intellectual property organization (WIPO), which featured the smartphone with cutouts within the display for the front camera, sensors and earpiece.
According to the document, the fingerprint scanner will also be located on the front side of the smartphone. It can be implemented through a cutout inside the display or, more likely, integrated display: the appropriate technology is already present in the smartphone Vivo X20 Plus UD.
