Multiple official teaser videos were shared by the official Lava account on X recently. The video shows a dual rear camera setup, vertically aligned with the primary shooter expected to be a 50-megapixel main sensor. The design also hints at a unique decorative pattern around the camera module. This pattern may illuminate or glow in the dark, adding a visual highlight to the smartphone’s rear panel.
The device is also expected to feature flat plastic frames. Since the teaser lacks visible antenna lines, the Play Max is likely to sport a plastic body instead of a metal one.
