Nubia is gearing up to launch two Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 phones in China. The Red Magic 9 Pro series features the new chip later this week, whereas the Z60 Ultra is expected to debut in December. In a recent leak, tipster Digital Chat Station disclosed certain camera features and reiterated the expected launch timeframe for the ZTE Z60 Ultra.

According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the upcoming Nubia Z60 Ultra is reported to feature an under-display front camera and a 35mm camera. Notably, even the ultra-wide-angle camera has been upgraded to the top configuration, with sensor specifications currently considered the largest in the industry. It is also said to support optical image stabilization (OIS).

The tipster added that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered flagship will be unveiled in December. In a newer Weibo post, the tipster shared the above image, which he had already released back in August. He said that the prototype device shown on the right, which appears to be the Z60 Ultra, has a very prominent protrusion.

In August, the tipster claimed that the device is equipped with a 1-inch Sony IMX989 35mm primary camera. However, the tipster has claimed that Nubia has not yet incorporated the IMX989 35mm sensor in the Z60 Ultra. Hence, it is unclear which primary camera will be available on the device.

The detailed specifications of the Z60 Ultra haven’t been leaked yet, but a recent Geekbench listing revealed that it will arrive with 12 GB RAM and Android 14. In terms of market positioning, it is set to rival the likes of the Xiaomi 14 Pro, iQOO 12 Pro, Vivo X100 Pro, OnePlus 12, Realme GT 5 Pro, Meizu 21 series, Oppo Find X7 Pro, and Honor Magic 6 Pro in the Chinese market. Except for the X100 Pro, which has the Dimensity 9300 chip, all other flagship phones are equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
