I have never taken a selfie in my entire life. The feature is entirely pointless for me. Are there any smartphones that don’t have a front facing camera?

    My phone, Poco F2 Pro has a motorized selfie camera, and as I barely use it it is almost as if it didn’t have one.

    It is awesome to have a full display of 6.67" with no notches or punch holes of any sort.

      In a similar vein, the One Plus has a selfie camera which retracts. For all intents and purposes as close as you’ll get

        The retractable cameras are fun, as you always know when an app uses it.

        I’ve had it two times now, that I sat on the shitter and wanted to search something on the builtin chrome browser, and voila! Front cam pops up!

        Wasn’t even anything with video or images.

          My pixel has a setting that displays a green dot in the notification/status bar whenever an app is utilizing my camera/microphone. And I can disable that for each app that I don’t want to access my camera.

          I believe it’s only the 7 Pro and the 7T Pro, and I also believe they’re both no longer sold and out of support.
