Besides cameras, the post showcases the Magic 9 series in Moss Green finish, alongside the front pill-shaped cutout that hosts the front camera and a 3D Time-of-Flight sensor for facial unlocking.

Speaking of which, rumours point toward the phone being the first Android phone to feature a 1:1 square front camera for Apple's Centre Stage-like capabilities.
