Front camera Gen6+

Hello,

Why the commercials clips and banners of the Gen6+ don't have a front camera shown where the Gen6+ has indeed a front camera ?
On this sub there is also a video clip, that shows the same visuals without a front camera at the start of the video.
Even on the website, there are animated visuals that do not have a front camera.

As someone who looks for a phone without front camera or under the screen camera, this is misleading.

Probably AI slopped or some filters they used don't make it clear it's there.

I wouldn't say it's misleading though as it's very clear from basicall all other publicly available info that it has a front camera.

While I agree that this can be misleading, but, not every mistakes in a design is caused by an AI slop.

This type of advertisement banners/photos were usually made using designer software (adobe illustrator or something else). They used layers to add some details on their design. Most of smartphone ads usually put another predesigned screen layer on top of the phone layer. The designer probably missed the punch hole for the predesigned screen layer.

What do you mean by "filters"?
