I don't think this is nearly enough of description. We have phones with displays and cameras at both sides, where both sides can be used to operate the system. We have phone with display spanning both sides -- Mi Max. https://www.idnes.cz/mobil/telefony/xiaomi-mi-mix-alpha-predstaveni.A190924_105858_telefony_oma We have Galaxy Fold. https://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/galaxy-fold/ What is front side when device can be used in different configurations? Could we instead say that it is "main" vs "selfie" camera? Notebooks usually have just "selfie" camera, tablets often have both... DSLRs have just "main" camera.
