The front camera 12, the receiver 13 and the display 14 are all connected to the processor 11 to receive commands from the processor 11 to implement respective functions. Wherein the connections between the structures in fig. 2 and 3 are not shown for clarity of illustration, and the dashed structures are used to indicate structures that are not visible in the present view.
For example, the front camera 12 can realize the functions of taking a self-portrait picture and recording a self-portrait; the receiver 13 can realize a function of converting an electric signal corresponding to the voice sent by the other party into audible sound of the user; the display screen 14 is used to display various user operation interfaces of the electronic device.
The front surface of the electronic device 100 is divided into an upper region 101 and a lower region 102, and the area of the upper region 101 is larger than that of the lower region 102; the front side of the electronic device 100 is the side facing the user when the user operates the electronic device 100.
Wherein front-facing camera 12 and earpiece 13 are both disposed in lower region 102.
The display screen 14 is disposed in the upper region 101, the area of the display screen 14 is equal to or smaller than the area of the upper region 101, and the distance between the upper edge of the display screen 14 and the upper edge of the electronic device 100 is less than or equal to 1 mm.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the area of the upper region 101 being greater than the area of the lower region 102 means: the area of upper region 101 is much larger than the area of lower region 102, alternatively, the area of upper region 101 may be 13 times or more the area of lower region 102.
First, the positions where the front camera 12 and the earpiece 13 are provided in the lower region 102 will be described.
The front camera 12 may be disposed at any position of the lower region 102, and the earpiece 13 may be disposed at any position of the lower region 102.
Alternatively, if electronic device 100 does not include home key 20, earpiece 13 may be disposed in a central location of lower region 102, and front-facing camera 12 may be disposed proximate earpiece 13 and not below earpiece 13.
The placement of earpiece 13 in the center of lower region 102 allows the user to easily align the earpiece with the ear while using the earpiece. The front camera 12 is arranged close to the earpiece 13 and is not located below the earpiece 13, so that when a user uses the front camera, the electronic device is not placed at a position deviating from the position right in front of the user too much.
Alternatively, if electronic device 100 does not include home key 20, earpiece 13 may be disposed in a central location of lower region 102, and front-facing camera 12 may be disposed directly below earpiece 13.
The placement of earpiece 13 in the center of lower region 102 allows the user to easily align the earpiece with the user's ear while using the earpiece. The front camera 12 is arranged right below the earpiece 13, so that when a user uses the front camera, the electronic device is placed right in front of the user.
Alternatively, if the electronic device 100 does not include the home key 20, the earpiece 13 may be disposed at the center of the lower region 102, and the front camera 12 may be disposed at the edge of the lower region.
The placement of earpiece 13 in the center of lower region 102 allows the user to easily align the earpiece with the user's ear while using the earpiece. The front camera 12 is arranged at the edge of the lower area 102, and the edge is hidden, so that the whole appearance of the electronic device is more attractive.
Alternatively, if the electronic device 100 includes the home key 20, the home key 20 is disposed at the center of the lower area, the front camera 13 may be disposed at the edge of the lower area, and the receiver is disposed right below the home key.
The placement of the earpiece 13 directly below the home key 20 allows the user to easily align the earpiece with the user's ear while using the earpiece. The front camera 12 is arranged at the edge of the lower area, firstly, due to the limitation of the space of the lower area 102, if the front camera 12 is arranged at the position right below the earphone, the space of the upper area is reduced; secondly, when more structures are arranged in the lower area 102, the front-facing camera 12 is arranged at a hidden edge position, so that the overall appearance of the electronic device is more attractive.
Alternatively, if the electronic device 100 includes the home key 20, the home key 20 is set at the center of the lower area, the front camera 12 may be set at the edge of the lower area, and the earpiece 13 is set close to the home key and is not located below the home key.
The front camera 12 is arranged at the edge of the lower area, and the receiver 13 is arranged close to the home key 20 and not located below the home key, so that the appearance of the electronic device is more attractive, the area of the lower area of the electronic device is reduced, and the area of the upper area is increased.
From the foregoing description of the front surface of the mobile phone in the prior art, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that, if the electronic device is a mobile phone, the lower region of the front surface of the electronic device of the embodiment is the region C. For convenience of the design process of the mobile phone, the positions of the earpiece 13 and the front camera 12 in the lower area in the present embodiment may be symmetrical to the positions of the earpiece and the front camera in the a area in the prior art. Of course, the receiver 13 and the front camera 12 need to be set according to actual conditions, for example, when a home key or a home key and a menu key, or a return key is set, the positions of the receiver 13 and the front camera 12 need to be set by comprehensively considering factors such as the area of the upper area, the appearance of the mobile phone, and the like.
Next, the manner in which the display panel 14 is disposed in the upper region will be described.
The display screen 14 is arranged in the upper area 101, the area of the display screen 14 is equal to or smaller than that of the upper area 101, and the distance between the upper edge of the display screen 14 and the upper edge of the electronic device 100 is smaller than or equal to 1 mm.
Specifically, if the area of the display 14 is equal to the area of the upper region 101, it means that the front surface of the electronic device 100 has no frame.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that if the area of the display 14 is smaller than the area of the upper region 101, it means that: the area of the display screen 14 is slightly smaller than the area of the upper region 101. In this case, it is described that the front surface of the electronic device is provided with a frame, and it can be said that almost all of the area above the electronic device is a display screen.
It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the width of the lower region of the electronic device in the prior art (such as the C region in the mobile phone) is generally set to be smaller, so the width of the lower region in the embodiment is also smaller, and the value of the width can be referred to the value of the width of the lower region of the electronic device in the prior art.
The front face of the electronic device 100 is divided into an upper area 101 and a lower area 102, the display screen 14 is arranged in the upper area 101, the area of the display screen 14 is equal to or smaller than that of the upper area 101, the distance between the upper edge of the display screen 14 and the upper edge of the electronic device 100 is smaller than or equal to 1mm, and the front camera 12 and the earphone 13 are both arranged in the lower area 102, so that all or almost all of the upper area of the front face of the electronic device is the display screen, namely, the upper area of the front face of the electronic device realizes a full-screen. Meanwhile, the electronic device in the embodiment still keeps the earphone without using a bone conduction scheme with high cost, and the earphone is arranged in the lower area, so that the cost of the electronic device is not high while the whole screen is realized in the upper area of the front of the electronic device.
The electronic device of the present embodiment may include: the system comprises a processor, a front camera, a receiver and a display screen; the front camera, the receiver and the display screen are all connected with the processor; the front surface of the electronic equipment is divided into an upper area and a lower area, and the area of the upper area is larger than that of the lower area; the front surface of the electronic equipment is the surface facing the user when the user operates the electronic equipment; the front camera and the receiver are both arranged in the lower area; the display screen is arranged in the upper area, the area of the display screen is equal to or smaller than that of the upper area, and the distance between the upper edge of the display screen and the upper edge of the electronic equipment is smaller than or equal to 1 mm. The electronic equipment of the embodiment of the invention ensures low cost of the electronic equipment while realizing a full screen in the upper area of the front of the electronic equipment.
To ensure that when the front camera 12 and the headphone 13 are disposed in the lower region of the front surface of an electronic apparatus, a screen is not disturbed. This embodiment is further improved on the basis of the above embodiment.
Referring to fig. 2 to 3, the electronic device 100 of the embodiment may include: the system comprises a processor 11, a front camera 12, a receiver 13 and a display screen 14;
the front camera 12, the receiver 13 and the display screen 14 are all connected with the processor;
the front surface of the electronic device 100 is divided into an upper region 101 and a lower region 102, and the area of the upper region 101 is larger than that of the lower region 102; the front side of the electronic device 100 is the side facing the user when the user operates the electronic device 100;
the front camera 12 and the earpiece 13 are both arranged in the lower region 102;
the display screen 14 is arranged in the upper area 101, the area of the display screen 14 is equal to or smaller than that of the upper area 101, and the distance between the upper edge of the display screen 14 and the upper edge of the electronic device 100 is smaller than or equal to 1 mm;
the processor 11 is configured to obtain a first user interface corresponding to a first function according to a first operation of starting the first function input by a user, and send the first user interface to the display screen; the first user interface is an inverted interface and the first function is a function associated with the front facing camera 12 or earpiece 13
The display 14 is for displaying a first user interface.
Specifically, the first function in the present embodiment may be any one of the following: a self-timer function, a call function, a function of displaying lyrics of a song being played, a voice chat function, and a video chat function. The first function is not limited to the above function, and may be any function related to the earpiece or the front camera.
The electronic device of the present embodiment will be described below by taking the call function of a mobile phone as an example.
Fig. 4 is a first schematic diagram of a user interface of an electronic device provided by the present invention, and fig. 5 is a second schematic diagram of the user interface of the electronic device provided by the present invention.
Referring to fig. 4 to 5, after the user receives the incoming call, the mobile phone displays a user interface of the incoming call, as shown in fig. 4 (the user interface in fig. 4 is only a schematic diagram, and the content included in the user interface of fig. 4 is not limited in the user interface of the incoming call). The incoming call user interface is now the face-up interface. The technical personnel in the field can understand that the interface which is arranged in the right direction is a conventional interface which accords with the viewing habits of users, in a popular way, the upper direction of the interface which is arranged in the right direction is the same as the upper direction of the electronic equipment, and the left direction of the interface is the same as the left direction of the electronic equipment; based on this, the inverted interface is the interface obtained by rotating the upright interface by 180 degrees, and in popular terms, the inverted interface is the interface with the upper direction opposite to the upper direction of the electronic device, and the left direction opposite to the left direction of the electronic device.
As shown in fig. 4, the user clicks an "answer" button, that is, the user inputs a first operation of starting a call function (a first function) through the user interface of the incoming call of the mobile phone, that is, the call function is started, the processor receives the first operation input by the user, obtains a first user interface (a call interface) corresponding to the call function according to the first operation, sends the first user interface to the display screen, and then the display screen of the mobile phone displays the first user interface corresponding to the call function, where the first user interface is an inverted interface, as shown in fig. 5.
After the call function is started, in a non-outward-playing state, a user needs to listen to the sound of the other party by using the receiver, the receiver is arranged in the area below the front face of the mobile phone, the user needs to turn the mobile phone upside down to take the mobile phone, at the moment, the disorder caused by the fact that the mobile phone is turned upside down cannot occur on the inverted first user interface, especially when the user needs to operate through the first user interface in the call process (for example, the operation of starting the recording function is input), the inverted first user interface is greatly convenient for the user to operate, and the use experience of the user is improved.
On the other hand, after the call function is started, in an outward-placed state, although the receiver cannot be used, the inverted first user interface does not influence the use of the user, and the user only needs to take the mobile phone upside down.
Similarly, for the self-timer or self-video function, after the user clicks the icon button camera on the mobile phone, if the corresponding user interface before the user exits the camera is the interface corresponding to the rear camera, the user interface at the moment is the positive interface; in this case, if the user needs to use the front-facing camera, the user clicks an icon button corresponding to the front-facing camera (i.e., a first operation of starting a self-timer or self-recording function is input), the processor obtains a first user interface corresponding to the self-timer or self-recording function according to the first operation, the first user interface is an inverted interface, and the display screen displays the first user interface. If the user interface corresponding to the previous time before the user quits the camera is the interface corresponding to the front camera, the inverted first user interface corresponding to the self-photographing or self-recording function is directly displayed after the user opens the icon button camera on the mobile phone by clicking. At the moment, the inverted interface corresponding to the mobile phone is not disordered, and great convenience is brought to the self-shooting or self-recording function of the user.
For the voice chat function, when the environment where the user is located is not suitable for speaking and listening with large volume, the user needs to use a receiver to listen, at the moment, the inverted first user interface corresponding to the voice chat function does not need to take the mobile phone down once every time of listening, and great convenience is brought to the voice chat function of the user.
The processor in this embodiment is configured to obtain a first user interface corresponding to a first function according to a first operation of starting the first function, which is input by a user, where the first user interface is an inverted interface, and the display screen is configured to display the first user interface. The user can not generate the messy feeling of the screen when using the functions of the electronic equipment related to the front camera and the receiver, thereby greatly facilitating the operation of the user and improving the use experience of the user.
In the process of actually using the electronic device, for the voice chat function, when the environment where the user is located is not suitable for speaking with a large volume and listening, and the user needs to speak to send voice, the used voice is small, so that the microphone of the electronic device can well receive the voice with a small voice of the user, and the microphone of the electronic device can reduce noise of the environment where the user is located.

Specifically, the first function in the present embodiment may be any one of the following: a self-timer function, a call function, a function of displaying lyrics of a song being played, a voice chat function, and a video chat function. The first function is not limited to the above function, and may be any function related to the earpiece or the front camera.
The following describes a control method of the electronic device according to the present embodiment, taking a self-timer function of a mobile phone as an example.
Fig. 9 is a third schematic diagram of a user interface of the electronic device provided by the present invention, and fig. 10 is a fourth schematic diagram of the user interface of the electronic device provided by the present invention.
Referring to fig. 9 to 10, after the user clicks the icon button "camera" on the user interface corresponding to "camera" on the mobile phone, if the user interface corresponding to the last time the user exits from "camera" is the interface corresponding to the rear camera, the user interface at this time is the interface in the front position, as shown in fig. 9. The technical personnel in the field can understand that the interface which is arranged in the right direction is a conventional interface which accords with the viewing habits of users, in a popular way, the upper direction of the interface which is arranged in the right direction is the same as the upper direction of the electronic equipment, and the left direction of the interface is the same as the left direction of the electronic equipment; based on this, the inverted interface is the interface obtained by rotating the upright interface by 180 degrees, and in popular terms, the inverted interface is the interface with the upper direction opposite to the upper direction of the electronic device, and the left direction opposite to the left direction of the electronic device.
In this case, if the user needs to use the front camera, the user clicks an icon button corresponding to the front camera, that is, the user inputs a first operation for starting a self-timer function (a first function) through the current user interface, and the electronic device receives the first operation.
After receiving the first operation, the electronic device obtains a first user interface corresponding to a self-timer function, that is, a self-timer interface, according to the first operation, where the first user interface is an inverted interface, as shown in fig. 10.
And after obtaining the first user interface, the electronic equipment displays the first user interface to the user.
After the self-timer function is opened, the front camera needs to be used, and the front camera is arranged in the area below the front face of the mobile phone, so that a user needs to turn the mobile phone upside down to take the mobile phone.
It can be understood by those skilled in the art that if the user interface corresponding to the previous time the user quits the "camera" is the interface corresponding to the front camera, the inverted first user interface corresponding to the self-photographing or self-recording function is directly displayed after the user clicks the icon button "camera" on the mobile phone. At the moment, the inverted interface corresponds to the inverted mobile phone, the disordered interface is avoided, and great convenience is brought to the self-timer or self-video recording function of a user.
Further, after displaying the first user interface to the user, the method further comprises: receiving a second operation of closing the second function input by the user; displaying a second user interface corresponding to the second function or a main interface of the electronic equipment according to the second operation; and the second user interface and the main interface of the electronic equipment are positive interfaces.
Specifically, after the first function is used, the user inputs a second operation for closing the first function, the electronic device receives the second operation, and displays a second user interface corresponding to the second function or a main interface of the electronic device according to the second operation.
For example, if the current first user interface is a self-portrait user interface, and an icon button of "switch camera" is clicked, a second operation of closing the first function is input for the user, and at this time, the self-portrait user interface is closed, and a non-self-portrait (second function) user interface is displayed. For another example, if the current first user interface is a self-portrait user interface, and the returned icon button is clicked (also the second operation of closing the first function), the main interface of the electronic device is displayed.
The method for controlling the electronic device of the embodiment comprises the following steps: receiving a first operation of starting a first function input by a user; the first function is related to a front camera of the electronic equipment or an earphone of the electronic equipment; according to the first operation, obtaining a first user interface corresponding to the first function, wherein the first user interface is an inverted interface; a first user interface is displayed to a user. The method for controlling the electronic equipment in the embodiment enables a user to use the electronic equipment in any embodiment without the messy interface, facilitates the operation of the user, and improves the use experience of the user.
