ZTE Nubia X6 Spotted

ZTE Nubia X6 SpottedThere has been a fair number of rumors concerning the upcoming ZTE Nubia Z7, where among them include an increase in the screen size, not to mention being slated for an announcement later this month or in April. Well, it seems that the ZTE Nubia Z7 will not be known as that particular name when it is finally released, as it would fall under the guise of the ZTE Nubia X6 instead. We are pretty fine with this particular naming convention, considering how the ZTE Nubia X6 will allegedly arrive with a 6” or 6.3” display, rather than a far larger 7” one which would surely place it in the tablet category. Not only that, the number 6 would also jive a whole lot better with the model name, don’t you think so?

    ZTE Nubia 5 Review

    ZTE Nubia 5 Review

    In the U.S., there are several very well-known companies manufacturing popular smartphones on a regular basis. Companies like Samsung, LG and Apple are synonymous with mobile as their devices have gained in popularity over the years. ZTE is a company not many those in the U.S. are too familiar with as the company primarily offers their devices to the overseas market, but that doesn’t mean what they offer isn’t as competitive.

    ZTE released its Nubia 5 a few months ago and its specs can easily compete with most of what’s currently available in the U.S. as it features a 5-inch 1080p display, a quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 13MP main camera, 2MP front-facing camera and a 2300mAh battery. This is just the tip of the iceberg as there’s more to the Nubia 5 than its high-end specs, so without further ado, let’s get into our review of ZTE’s latest smartphone.

    Nubia Z5S And Z5S Mini Handsets Achieve Pre-Order Record In China

    Nubia Z5S And Z5S Mini Handsets Achieve Pre Order Record In ChinaChina’s ZTE, which is a company that has been in the spotlight in recent years for its foray into the world of smartphones, has recently made it big with the pre-orders of its new Nubia Z5S as well as Nubia Z5S mini devices, hitting the 2.5 million mark. To make matters all the more impressive, these figures happened to hail from not many, but just one particular e-commerce outlet, which is JD aka 360Buy. This would mean that the cumulative sales of the Nubia Z5S and Nubia Z5S mini which go for $330 and $250, respectively, have already shot past its previous record holder, which would be the Xiaomi.

    ZTE claims that this kind of market response can be attributed to the inclusion of a new camera that sports Optical Image Stabilization, apart from the company actually studying consumer feedback during the production and design process and making the necessary changes in order for it to jive close to what customers want. I would like to think that superior hardware that remains up to date and even forward looking also play an important role in the early success of both handsets, what with Full HD IGZO displays thrown into the mix. What do you think? [Press Release]

    China’s Nubia offers Android phone with Snapdragon 800 and 16GB storage for $330

    It was only just over a month ago when ZTE’s premium brand Nubia made its debut launch in the US, and today the company’s already launching follow-up models in China. Starting with the Z5S, this is essentially the Z5 (or simply the 5 in the US) packed with some new goodies: a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 SoC, a 5-megapixel front camera, a dedicated camera button, 4K video capture, a multi-purpose infrared remote feature and rare support for all three 3G networks in China (China Mobile’s TD-SCDMA, China Telecom’s CDMA2000 and China Unicom’s WCDMA).

    The rest of the phone is pretty much the same as before: 5-inch 1080p (443ppi) LCD, 2.67mm bezel, 7.6mm thickness, 2GB RAM, 2,300mAh battery, and a 13-megapixel main camera with f/2.2 aperture plus digital image stabilization. %Gallery-slideshow122229%

    ZTE Nubia Flagship To Come With Snapdragon 800 Chipset In November

    ZTE Nubia Flagship To Come With Snapdragon 800 Chipset In NovemberZTE, one of the smartphone manufacturers from China who are now starting to make its presence felt worldwide, has mentioned that they have plans to introduce a new flagship device for the masses later this November. This particular flagship smartphone will run on the Snapdragon 800 processor, and will obviously target the high end market. If the name Nubia sounds familiar to you, that is because right now, the ZTE Nubia Z5 and Nubia Z5 Mini have been released already, so it is not surprising to see them concentrate on the Nubia name to introduce a new flagship this November at best, and early December at worst.

    Not only that, it does seem that the new flagship will continue from where the Nubia Z5 left off. So far, hints of the hardware specifications of this alleged upcoming Nubia flagship device include a Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor that will in all probability be the MSM8974AB model, in addition to improvements made to the camera as well as other user interface features. Will the upcoming flagship be able to take the title of the thinnest 5” Full HD smartphone when it arrives? Perhaps, considering how its predecessor did so in the past. Pricing details obviously remain to be known.

    Nubia Z5 mini official, touts full-size hardware at a tiny price

    Nubia Z5 mini launches with fullsize specs

    ZTE’s sub-label Nubia may want a refresher on the definition of “mini,” because we’re not seeing many sacrifices in its just-shipped Z5 mini. At 4.7 inches, the Android phone is nearly as large as the 5-inch Z5 flagship; it also shares the bigger Z5’s quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro, 2GB of RAM, 2,300mAh battery, 13MP f/2.2 rear camera and 5MP front camera. The mini is likewise a first-class citizen in its home country with 3G support for China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom. Prospective owners are only really giving up screen resolution (down to 720p) and storage (down to 16GB), and they’re getting a choice of pastel-colored, replaceable backs in return. As such, that makes the Z5 mini a potential bargain at its ¥1,888 ($308) price — buyers are getting most of the Z5 experience for considerably less cash.

    Nubia Z5 unveiled in China with quad-core chip, 5-inch 1080p display and 7.6mm thickness

    Nubia Z5 unveiled as the world's thinnest 5inch 1080p phone, available in January

    Much like many Chinese smartphone brands these days, ZTE sub-brand Nubia had prematurely given away the main selling points of its Z5 ahead of its Beijing launch today, but there were still some surprises. As you probably already know, here’s yet another five-inch 1080p Android phone featuring Qualcomm’s 1.5GHz quad-core APQ8064, 2GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage, along with a 13-megapixel F2.2 main camera (with five-element optics by Konica Minolta, plus separate touch focus and touch exposure in the app) and a two-megapixel front-facing camera. For multimedia consumption, the Z5 supports WiFi Display and MHL output should you wish to beam content to a larger screen; whereas on the audio side you are spoiled with either Yamaha or Dolby Digital Plus. But wait, there’s more!

    ZTE’s Nubia Z5 turns to face the camera in ‘leaked’ photo

    ZTE's Nubia Z5 turns to face the camera in 'leaked' photo

    We already got a look at the rear of the latest China-bound smartphone from ZTE, but now the Nubia Z5 has turned around to shown us its face. The image was apparently “leaked” on Chinese social network Weibo by the an enthusiastic PR manager at the firm. Things are still pretty sparse on the specification front, but — all things going according to plan — that 5-inch screen and italian design will be hiding quad-core internals and at least 13 megapixels of camera power. With the official reveal tipped for next week, though, it shouldn’t be too long until we’re seeing a whole lot more of it. Leaked or otherwise.

    ZTE Nubia Z5 ‘high-end smartphone’ shows off back and circular camera detail

    ZTE Nubia Z5 shows off back, circular camera detail

    Here’s a closer look at the Chinese phone-maker’s incoming premium smartphone, the ZTE Nubia Z5. While we’re already expecting quad-core internals, a 13-megapixel camera and a 5-inch screen, it’s nice to finally get a look at that Italian design broadly outlined by ZTE at the device’s unveiling in October, even if they are a touch familiar. The company aims to have the device out in Asia next month, when we should hopefully have a full spec sheet and more details on what sort of software is hiding beneath that glossy white shell.

    ZTE launches Nubia range of high-end devices, announces Z5 quad-core smartphone

    ZTE unveils highend Nubia mobile line, launches Z5 quadcore, 13megapixel, Italian design

    ZTE’s plan to reinvent itself as a high-end smartphone was missing one, crucial ingredient — a European-sounding name that ended in “…ia” to brand its new range of top-level devices. That’s why the company has just announced Nubia, which apparently means “cloudy” in Latin. It’s also teased details of the first handset to arrive under this new cloud (geddit?), the Z5. This new 5-inch smartphone will have quad-core internals, a 13-megapixel camera and “Italian” design — which makes us hope above hope that they hired Pininfarina and it’ll come in Ferrari Red.
