Anurag — Sun, 23 Apr 2023 19:09:07 +0000

Nubia Z50 was introduced last year in December and the company recently unveiled an Ultra model as well. The smartphone debuts with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and a capable camera setup, highlighted by a 64MP primary sensor. Not just impressive hardware, but the Z50 also features a sleek design with a curved panel. Now, the company has launched a special edition of the handset called the Mountain Life edition with ballistic nylon leather on the back.

New look, Same specifications

As per the official announcement, the Nubia Z50 Mountain Life edition will be available for purchase in China starting April 26 in two colors— Khaki and Fir Green. The handset will be sold in a sole 12GB RAM and 256GB storage configuration, priced at 3199 Yuan ($464).

The Mountain Life edition of the phone is a special edition, and as with any such device, its design is its main attraction. According to the company, the phone features a distinctive plain leather nylon embossed design that is not only lightweight but also easy to grip and doesn’t attract fingerprints. It has the phrase “URBAN OUTDOOR” written on the bottom, serving to highlight the uniqueness of the new device.

The specifications of the device are the same as the original model. This means you get a 6.67-inch curved AMOLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels (FHD+), 10-bit color depth, and up to a 144Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, paired with LPDDR5x RAM, UFS 4.0 storage, VC cooling system. It boots MyOS 13 based on Android 13 and gets a custom 64MP Sony IMX787 primary sensor with a 35mm equivalent lens and OIS.

3 Technologies that Will Make Smartphones Thinner in the Next 5 Years

Smartphones have become an essential part of our lives, but they are also getting bigger and heavier as they pack more features and functions. Nowadays, you can really feel the heavy weight of the latest glass sandwich in the pocket of your pants.

However, some technologies are emerging that could make smartphones thinner and lighter in the coming future. Here are the 3 technologies you might not know that will make smartphones thinner in the next 5 years.

Graphene Batteries

Graphene is a material made of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. It has many remarkable properties, such as high strength, flexibility, conductivity and transparency. Graphene batteries are expected to offer higher energy density, faster charging and a longer lifespan than conventional lithium-ion batteries. And smartphone manufacturers such as Xiaomi, Oppo and Samsung are researching new battery tech such as graphene could enable high-capacity batteries in a smaller form factor. In turn, it translates to thinner and lighter smartphones with longer battery life.

Rollable Displays

Rollable displays are flexible screens that can be rolled up or folded when not in use. They can offer larger display sizes without increasing the device’s footprint or weight. Rollable displays are based on organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology, which produces bright and vivid colours with low power consumption. Some smartphone makers, such as Motorola and Samsung, have already showcased their prototypes of rollable smartphones that can expand or retract their screens with a simple button.

For example, Motorola showcased the Motorola Rizr rollable at MWC Barcelona 2023, where the device is housed within a small 5-inch form factor but can transform into a 6.5-inch screen when fully rolled out. And in turn, you can still have the big screen in a small and thinner package.

Under-Display Cameras

Last on the list is under-display cameras. Under-display cameras are cameras that are hidden under the screen of a smartphone, eliminating the need for a notch or a hole-punch cutout. This can create a more immersive and seamless viewing experience for the user, and then the phones need not carve more screen space. Thus, no notch translates to less distraction, less extra screen space needed, and more importantly, a thinner and smaller smartphone overall.

Under-display cameras (UDC) use transparent OLED pixels that can switch between displaying content and letting light pass through to the camera sensor. Some smartphone makers, such as ZTE and Xiaomi, have already launched smartphones with under-display cameras. The technology is still in its early stages and it is expected that UDC image quality and performance will improve rapidly in the next 5 years with proper development with support from the industry.

On the topic of under-display cameras, the latest flagship from ZTE – the Nubia Z50 Ultra features a notch-less 120Hz AMOLED display, the latest and fastest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC from Qualcomm and more importantly a next-generation under-display camera.

Nubia Z50 Ultra Spotted With Ultra-narrow Border, Under-display Camera

Soumyakanti — Wed, 22 Feb 2023 12:22:28 +0000

Nubia is reportedly gearing up to launch the Nubia Z50 Ultra, the top variant in its Z50 lineup. Recently, a photo of the Nubia Z50 Ultra is captured by a netizen in the subway (published by Digital Chat Station) which reveals that the smartphone has an ultra-narrow border screen with an under-display camera, making it look stunning in appearance.

According to a previous report, the Z50 Ultra’s under-display camera uses a pixel circuit to drive an OLED pixel unit technical solution. This solution optimizes the pixel space arrangement and film stacking design of the camera area without reducing the pixel density and pixel driver circuit in the camera area. As a result, the front camera of the mobile phone has improved the transmittance of visible light, increased the amount of light input of the camera under the screen, and achieved a high-resolution and undifferentiated true full-screen display while improving the photographic effect.

This innovative under-display camera technology is expected to be a game-changer for the smartphone industry as it eliminates the need for a notch or hole-punch in the display to house the front-facing camera. This, in turn, provides a larger and more immersive display experience, giving users a true full-screen experience without any interruptions.

Nubia has not officially released any details about the smartphone’s specifications or features, but recently, an unknown Nubia smartphone with the model number NX712J was listed on TENAA, which is believed to be the Z50 Ultra.

According to Digital Chat Station, the Z50 Ultra will feature ZTE‘s fourth-generation under-display front-facing camera technology from BOE, a 2K resolution curved display powered by a second-gen display chip, a periscope zoom camera, and a 5,000mAh battery.

Leaked image reveals Nubia’s next Z-series flagship phone with flat display, ultra-thin bezels

In February 2021, Nubia announced the Nubia Z40 Pro flagship phone, featuring a curved-edge OLED display and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. Last month, the Nubia President confirmed that it would be releasing a new Z-series phone in July. It claimed that the device will set a new benchmark in the flat screen segment. It is unclear whether it will arrive in the market with the Nubia Z40 or Z50 moniker. Now, a leaked image of an upcoming Z-series flagship is now doing the rounds on Weibo (via).

The alleged next-generation Z-series Nubia phone that has appeared in a leaked image reveals a flat display with ultra-thin bezels. The device, which is held in landscape orientation, has a very thin bottom bezel. The upper bezel is not clearly visible since it is covered by the finger.

It seems that the device is equipped with symmetrical bezels on all four sides. It probably features a centrally positioned punch-hole for the selfie camera. Whatever the device will be called, it is likely to come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 mobile platform. Unfortunately, there is no information available on the other specifications of the device.

Nubia’s next Z-series flagship

According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the company will collaborate with another company to launch an anime-based custom edition of the device. To recall, the Chinese manufacturer had announced the Nubia Z40 Pro Outcast Limited Edition, which was themed after “The Outcast” anime.

The Nubia Z40 Pro came with specs like a 6.67-inch AMOLED FHD+ 144Hz display, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, up to 16 GB of RAM, up to 1 TB of storage, and a 5,000mAh battery with 66W charging support. It came with a 16-megapixel front camera, and a 64-megapixel (main) + 50-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 8-megapixel (telephoto) triple rear cameras. It is likely that the next Z-series Nubia flagship may borrow some of its specs from the Z40 Pro.
