Samsung has teased a nearly bezel-less laptop design that accommodates an under-panel camera. It is christened Blade Bezel. So, while the smartphone market has seen some early adopters of such design, this, if I’m not mistaken, is the first of its kind in the laptop territory.

So let’s look into what we know about the world’s first laptop with an in-display webcam.

This has an OLED panel with pretty slim borders around which should endow an immersive visual experience. It is possible because of the “invisible camera hole”. Samsung tells the display portion above the camera will go transparent (probably translucent) when you fire up the camera for video calls.

That’s all revealed for now. Samsung is keeping specifics related to the laptop internals, launch, price, and availability closer to its chest. If we were to guess, chances are the display could surface on any of the company’s Chromebooks. Incidentally, there are also rumors around an under-display camera on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 3.
