Regional business leaders see the potential for employee empowerment and other use cases for GenAI

Oppo has somewhat brought slider phones back, but for a design-specific reason - and a hefty price.
The Chinese smartphone vendor unveiled its high-end Find X smartphone in Dubai on Monday, which comes with a bezel-less display, challenging design convention made popular and mainstream by Samsung Electronics and Apple.
With a 93.8 per cent screen-to-body ratio - beating the 84.2 per cent of the Galaxy S9+ and the 82.9 per cent of the iPhone X by a mile - Oppo is trying to push the limits of design in the crowded smartphone race with its pop-up mechanism on the Find X.
Front cameras have become the biggest issue on the discussion of truly bezel-less displays. While Samsung has opted keep a bezel on top and the likes of Apple and Huawei using a notch to house their front cameras, Oppo took it a step 'deeper': the snapper is concealed behind the screen and slides up when it needs to be used, most prominently for taking pictures or unlocking the device via facial recognition - and automatically retracts after use.
Here's how the camera on the @oppo Find X slides up: just swipe up or fire up the camera app and watch it creep up above. Interesting. By the way, it's priced at Dh3,999. ?? pic.twitter.com/YwTgKtAY6EThe Dubai event served as the regional launch for the Middle East and Africa.
