====Front cameras====
=====Photo=====
Emphasis is being put on the front camera since the mid-2010s, where front cameras have reached resolutions as high as typical rear cameras, such as the 2015 [[LG G4]] (8 megapixels), [[Sony Xperia C5 Ultra]] (13 megapixels), and 2016 [[Sony Xperia XA Ultra]] (16 megapixels, optically stabilized). The 2015 [[LG V10]] brought a dual front camera system where the second has a wider angle for group photography. Samsung implemented a front-camera sweep panorama (''panorama selfie'') feature since the [[Galaxy Note 4]] to extend the field of view.

=====Video=====
In 2012, the [[Galaxy S3]] and [[iPhone 5]] brought [[720p]] HD front video recording (at 30 fps). In early 2013, the [[Samsung Galaxy S4]], [[HTC One M7]] and [[Sony Xperia Z]] brought 1080p Full HD at that framerate, and in late 2014, the [[Galaxy Note 4]] introduced 1440p video recording on the front camera. Apple adapted [[1080p]] front camera video with the late 2016 [[iPhone 7]].

In 2019, smartphones started adapting [[2160p]] 4K video recording on the front camera, six years after rear camera 2160p commenced with the [[Galaxy Note 3]].
