Nubia first unveiled the innovative Nubia Alpha wearable in February this year. The wearable device looks more like a concept device with its foldable display and smartphone features crammed into a smartwatch design. However, the phone isn’t just a concept but will actually meet with us on April 8 when it will be launched in China. Ahead of the launch, Nubia’s co-founder and G, Ni Fei has released a camera sample which he says was shot using the minuscule Nubia Alpha’s camera. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the device comes with a 5MP camera for photos and video shooting. For a small sensor, the sample is pretty impressive with high clarity and attention to details. We don’t know much about the camera details like if there is autofocus, PDAF or the aperture size, among others. Ni Fei did share the EXIF data of the photo though, to convince us that it was indeed shot by the tiny wearable. The data shows the camera uses a resolution of 1080×1920 pixels (FullHD).

As a reminder, the Nubia Alpha features a 4-inch flexible OLED display but appears a lot bigger because of its ultra-wide aspect ratio. The display offers 960 x 192 pixels screen resolution and an aspect ratio that looks to be in the region of 5:1 or 49:9. Under the hood, the device is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 2100 chipset, coupled with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage.

It also comes with fitness-related features such as sleep-tracking and health-assistant apps. The Nubia Alpha is fuelled by a 500mAh battery which promises a day or two of endurance, comparable to smartphones. It comes in two models, one with an eSIM while the other has only Bluetooth connectivity. Both models will be available in Black and Gold colours.
