Nubia X8 has been making the rumor rounds for the past few months. However, as of now, we haven’t received any official confirmation from the company. Nubia seems to be focused on the Z11 series for now, so X8’s launch should be a while later. However, leaks about the phone continue to come in, and today, we have a lot of new information about this flagship smartphone.

According to the latest rumors, the Nubia X8 flagship will come in four different versions, Nubia X8 lifestyle, X8 standard,  X8 high and X8 PPT. The Lifestyle version will be the less powerful model in the lot, coming with the hexa-core Snapdragon 650 chipset with 3GB RAM and 16GB ROM. There will be a large 6.4-inch 1080p display. The phone will be the cheapest model in the series and will feature excellent battery life.

Next up is the Nubia X8 Standard Edition which will feature Snapdragon 820 chipset with 3GB RAM, 32GB ROM, and a 6.4-inch 1080p display. The high version will upgrade the RAM, ROM, and resolution to 4GB, 64GB and 2K respectively. Finally, there will be a top-end PPT version which will feature the still unannounced Snapdragon 823 chipset with 6GB of RAM. Details about the new Snapdragon 823 and other chips were leaked before, and you can read more about them from the above link.

Till now, we have only seen a single smartphone from Nubia in 2016, namely the Nubia Z11 Mini. Two other models with better specs are expected to be released soon, called as the Z11 and the Z11 Max. And possibly in the second half of the year, we could meet these four rumored Nubia X8 models. Unfortunately, as of now, nothing is official, so remember to take this news with a pinch of salt.

Nubia has been quiet for the past few months. The latest we heard about the company was via a TENAA listing of a new ZTE Nubia smartphone, which was most likley the Nubia Z11 Mini. However, the company has released a new teaser earlier today confirming some kind of announcement on March 29.

This could most likely be for the new series of Nubia smartphones, namely the Nubia Z11, Z11 Mini and Z11 Max. Apart from the TENAA listing, another reason we beleive this is for the Z11 series phones is because the GM of Nubia, Ni Fei had confirmed the existence of the Nubia Z11 series and said that the phone would launch in the first quarter of 2016.

Considering that the Nubia Z11 Mini already passsed through TENAA, let’s first take a look at its specs. The phone will feature a 1.5GHz / 1.2GHz octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. At the back, there will be a 16MP camera while up front, you will get an 8MP shooter. The phone will run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS. Pricing is expected to be around the 1499 Yuan figure which comes to $230.

Moving on to the next model, namely the Nubia Z11, we only have information via rumors. The phone is said to come with a 5.2-inch 2K display with Snapdragon 820 chipset under the hood and 4GB of RAM. There will be 128GB of storage and a powerful 20.7MP camera at the back. Up front, you can expect a 13MP shooter ideal for selfies. The phone is said to run on Android 6.0 out of the box.

But if the company decides to skip the Z11 series from March 29 announcement, what we can expect to see is the rumored Nubia X8. We had heard a fair share of rumors about this device, but soon, the phone was forgotten among other news. However, if the Nubia X8 is announced next week, it will most likely come with Snapdragon 820 chip with 4GB RAM, 7.9mm body, a 6-inch screen and a large 5120mAh battery. Of course, these specs come via rumors, so better wait till the official announcement before getting too excited.

So, what do you think will we see on March 29?

Looks like January is going to be an important month for Nubia. After rumors about a Jan 5 release of the Z11 turned out to be false, we were hoping that the company would release the device sometime soon. Yesterday, the company started sending out invitations for its January 18 event and we assumed it could be for the recently leaked Z11. But now, a few images of another handset have been leaked, most likely of the Nubia X8. So, we could see either of these devices at the event this month.

From the pictures, we can see that the Nubia X8 comes with an all metal body with a fingerprint sensor at the back. The leaked model actually reminds us of a phone that we had seen earlier. Remember, a few weeks back, we spotted an unknown Nubia model with fingerprint at a company event? Well, this looks like the larger model of that smartphone. Have a look at that leaked image from down below.

Today’s leaked phone looks large, which means it will most likely feature a gigantic 6.44-inch display like its predecessor, the Nubia X6. However, the resolution will reportedly be bumped up to 2K.

Another major highlight of the phone is going to the chipset inside. It is said that the phone will be coming with Snapdragon 820 quad-core SoC. And to support the high-end specs of the device, there will be a large 4500mAh battery on board.

The bezels of the phone look super thin and the screen to body ratio is also quite impressive. Looks like we are soon going to meet another beautiful Nubia flagship. Other details of the Nubia X8 is not known, but we will update you guys if anything more comes up.

Nubia has an official event on January 18, which means we will get to know very soon whether we meet the X8 or the Z11.

Meanwhile, you can check out more pictures of the beautiful Nubia X8 flagship from down below.

Back in May, we had come across a new leak which showed off the ZTE Nubia X8. However, since that time, we haven’t heard much about this particular smartphone. Now, Nubia phone has just released a new teaser on their Weibo page, and from the picture, it looks like this particular device will also be bezelless. Further, the teaser image comes with an X at the bottom, which could be a hint that this is the rumored Nubia X8.

While we will most likely see this handset as soon as October 15, a new leak shows us some of the features of the phone even before the launch. First of all, as you can see, the phone comes in pure gold color with a basic Nubia Z9 like design.

However, what makes this design even more interesting is the buttons on the side. You can see that they are not the traditional volume button that we have seen on smartphones. They look like touch based side buttons, which will make it unique among latest offerings. Also, the power button is expected to integrate a fingerprint sensor.

Like the ZTE Nubia Z9 which was bezelless, the Nubia X8 is also said to be bezelless featuring an improved 2.5D arch egde display. As for the specs, earlier leak hinted that the phone might come with a 5.5-inch 2K display with 4GB RAM, and a large 5120mAh battery. But these specs are yet to be confirmed. Since the company has already released a teaser, we can expect the launch on October 15, which is just a couple of days away.

So stay tuned for more details.

ZTE has been busy for the past few months, unveiling three new devices in its premium Nubia lineup. We have already seen the beautiful and bezelless ZTE Nubia Z9 along with two other devices namely Nubia Z9 Mini and Z9 Max.

After seeing these many releases, we thought that the company would be silent for at least a couple months, but it looks like there’s another product in the Nubia lineup that will launch soon. Earlier today, we came across several pictures of the ZTE Nubia X8 phablet. The leaked image revealed a full metal premium body with a fingerprint sensor just below the rear camera unit.

To be honest, we had already seen these images a few months back, but they were assumed to be of the Z9 series. But as you may know, the Z9 series phones came with a different design, which means, this could be another Nubia product, possibly the Nubia X8.

We haven’t heard any official news from the company as of yet, so its best to wait for some more concrete information in the next few weeks.
