A popular tipster IceUniverse cameup with a new render where he unwraps the design of upcoming smartphone Oppo R19 which is not yet confirmed by the Chinese company about its launch. Back in March, the company launched Oppo R15 which arrived with a notched screen. The first Android smartphone to sport the notch after the iPhone X. Two months ago the OPPO R17 was released as the successor of the R15 phone. The waterdrop notch display design allowed the R17 to deliver a higher screen-to-body ratio than the R15. Where now the new device is rendered to come with an in-display camera which will make it possible to produce even higher screen space than the R17.

The leaked render of Oppo R19 has surfaced on Weibo (via GizmoChina), While we look into the image the new device is expected to come with a slightly thick bottom bezel, the display of the alleged OPPO R19 is surrounded by super-slim bezels. The handset features a notch-less display. Instead of the notch, it features a small selfie camera hole at the top portion of the screen. The smartphone is also equipped with an in-screen fingerprint reader.
The rear side design is almost identical to OPPO R17. The R19’s back panel seems to be made out of glass. The bluish-green colour gradient rear has a vertical dual camera setup followed by an LED flash. Below it is the logo of the company.
As there is no info about Oppo R19 by the company the above render may not be considered as genuine one. But IceUniverse who has been known to leak accurate information about upcoming smartphones. Hence, there is a possibility that that R19 may sport the in-screen camera display design. As we know from previous reports Oneplus is borrowing its design elements from Oppo. For instance, the front appearance of the upcoming OnePlus 6T resembles with OPPO R17 and R17 Pro. Hence, there is a possibility that the OnePlus 7 smartphone arriving next year may also feature in-display camera like the OPPO R19.
But for now the Oneplus 6T is set to unveil on October 30, and the next oneplus iteration that is Oneplus 7 can be expected to come at next year in mid June or something. Even if the company pushes the launch a couple of months early, that will still mean somewhere are April timeframe. Also, there were rumours that OnePlus may adopt triple rear camera setup, a pop-up selfie camera, and more. So, what the Oneplus 7 would feature is remains to be seen.\
