The Samsung Galaxy S10 will feature the company's new Infinity-O display, which means that it will be equipped with an in-display punch hole for the front-facing camera (two holes for the dual front-facing sensors on the Galaxy S10+). But the first Samsung handset to carry the new in-display camera is the already released Galaxy A8s.

One of the cool features that Samsung was able to include with Infinity-O allows the user to open up the camera by swiping down on the touchscreen near the camera. Clicking on the video at the top of this article, you can see the stunning animated effect as the display on the Galaxy A8s turns into the camera application. And for those waiting impatiently for next month's unveiling of Samsung's 2019 flagships, tipster Ice Universe says that the Infinity-O display on the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ will offer the same exact feature. The only difference is that the in-display camera(s) on the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+ will be found on the upper right corner of the screen as opposed to the upper left corner on the A8s.

Samsung is expected to add other convenient features including the ability to swipe open the camera from any app, and having the camera take a screenshot with a double tap of the display. The Samsung Galaxy 10 and Galaxy 10+ are expected to be unveiled exactly one month from today.
