Are you one of those who bothers you to have a notch in the upper area of the screen? We find more and more models with screens that cover practically the entire front. In this way we can get a better use. But… where is the selfie camera housed? These terminals use a very interesting method, and the truth is that it works quite well. The last to implement it has been the Motorola One Hyper, a mid-range mobile that stands out in camera and autonomy, and that has a lens that hides.
This module that is hidden in the upper frame is called a Pop-Up, sliding or retractable camera. As its name suggests, it consists of a sliding mechanism that makes the lens stick out to the surface to be able to take selfies. In this way, the screen is used more, since hiding the camera it is not necessary to add any notch or notch in the terminal. Motorola ensures that the panel of this One Hyper takes advantage of 90 percent of the front.The sensors are very small and can go perfectly in the upper frame, and the speaker is located in the front area. This camera peeks out every time we need to take a selfie or video call. What about third-party apps? As these ask permission to use the camera, the system detects each time we set the front lens and pushes the module so that the lens starts working. This camera is 32 megapixels and has an f / 2.0 aperture.
The One Hyper also incorporates a triple lens on the rear. The main sensor is 64 megapixels, a high resolution that will allow us to capture more detail and light in the photographs. It is followed by a second 8 megapixel ultra-wide camera. This has a more open angle to get more information in the photo. Finally, we find a ToF sensor that measures the depth of field for photographs in portrait mode. As it could not be otherwise, an artificial intelligence mode has been added that allows us to capture greater detail and play with different camera options. The design of the camera is striking; a model that protrudes slightly from the edge in a band that reaches the bottom, where the Motorola logo is housed.

As for the characteristics, they are what we usually find in a mid-range terminal. On the one hand we find a 6.5-inch screen with Full HD + resolution. It is accompanied by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 processor, an eight-core chip that is accompanied by 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, which is expandable through micro SD cards. All this with a 4,000 mAh battery and 45W fast charging. The One Hyper also has NFC, so we can pay with the mobile through Google Pay or other services. It also includes Android 10. In this case without Android One, so we are not afraid of Google support and it is likely that it has some other app per-installed in the system.
Price and availability
Motorola's mobile with a retractable selfie camera in blue.
This Motorola One Hyper will go on sale on December 16 . Its price is 300 euros for a single version with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. A very interesting price considering the technologies it includes, as well as its 64 megapixel main camera, a resolution that we will see a lot in the mid / high range terminals.
Of course, we must bear in mind that manufacturers such as Xiaomi or Huawei also have very interesting options for this price range. In this case, what stands out the most compared to its competition is the inclusion of Pure Android, without any type of customization. This means that we can enjoy the Google design, as well as faster updates.
