The Nubia Z60 Ultra has now made an appearance in the Geekbench database, featuring the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. As usual, the benchmark entry doesn’t explicitly name the chip but rather provides its specifications, confirming the presence of the mentioned chipset.

The listing reveals that the device has 12 GB of RAM and Android 14, which will have a layer of the latest MyOS 14 UI on top. In the single-core and multi-core tests of Geekbench, it scored 1634 and 5947 points, respectively.

There is a possibility that the Nubia Z60 Ultra may come equipped with a 35mm camera, a 1-inch sensor, and an under-display selfie camera. The other details of the smartphone are yet to be revealed. The Geekbench listing of the device is a good hint that the company could be internally testing its performance before its official announcement. Hence, it is likely to debut by November or December of this year in China.
