There 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?

China’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]

ZTE, 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.

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!

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.
