Huawei P11 may feature a camera that rivals Apple's TrueDepth system on the iPhone X
In the video, Matthew Leone, an Honor Device engineer, showcases the camera by doing a quick 3D scan of his face with fairly impressive results, considering the speedy capturing process. The Point Cloud Depth Camera, not unlike Apple's TrueDepth camera, employs a near-infrared emitter that casts a light grid made up of thousands of "points" onto your face, so as to determine its shape.
If the P11 does indeed sport an iPhone X-style notch, it would be a good opportunity for Huawei to justify it by housing a new depth camera in it. However, the official unveiling of the P11 is still a ways off, so we can't be certain. After all, LG has had an all-in-one iris scanner and front-facing camera sensor for quite a while now, and we still haven't seen it implemented in one a phone.
