nubia officially unveiled its latest flagship products in Malaysia: the nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition smartphone and the nubia Pad Pro tablet. These new devices promise to redefine mobile imaging, productivity, and entertainment, offering users a more professional and comprehensive experience.
nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition: A Visionary in Mobile Photography
Embodying nubia’s core DNA in imaging, the Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition introduces the cutting-edge fifth-generation Neo Master 35mm custom optical system. Omnivision’s custom “Light & Shadow Master 990” flagship sensor further enhances this advanced system, which notably delivers a remarkable 40% increase in brightness over its predecessor.
In terms of hardware, the sensor boasts a 50MP high resolution, a 1/1.3-inch optical format, and a 1.2-micron pixel size. Moreover, it incorporates pioneering technologies like horizontal/vertical quad-phase detection autofocus (H/V QPD) and DCG dual conversion gain HDR, which together ensure superior image quality that reportedly surpasses one-inch standards across all shooting scenarios.
Advanced Camera System
Further enhancing its photographic prowess, the device includes OIS optical image stabilization and an f/1.7 large aperture lens with a blue glass spin-coated IR filter. It also features a 64MP periscope telephoto lens capable of impressive 15cm macro telephoto shots, alongside a 50MP AF ultra-wide angle macro lens for expansive landscapes and intricate close-ups. A dedicated physical mechanical shutter button with dual-stage control provides a tactile, professional photography experience.
The Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition also integrates a professional AI imaging model, offering features like AI motion capture for fast-moving subjects, classic film tone filters for artistic expression, and AI Sunset and AI Milky Way Night modes to cater to diverse user demands.
For photography enthusiasts, nubia has designed a professional retro kit for the Z70 series, comprising a classic phone case, the Neo Bar smart camera control bar, and filter adapter rings, transforming the smartphone into a professional-grade camera.
Immersive Display and Powerful Performance
Display technology, another nubia hallmark, shines with the exclusive 7th generation UDC Full Screen Display. This under-display camera technology, combined with second-generation Longxi Glass, provides an uninterrupted, stunning full-vision experience with significantly improved preview and shooting display effects.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite flagship chip powers the Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition, working alongside enhanced LPDDR5X memory and UFS 4.0 storage to deliver ultra-fast operations and seamless gaming. With a 144Hz screen refresh rate, 2500Hz instant touch sampling rate, AI Ultra Gaming Visuals, and AI Frame Boosting, it promises an ultra-smooth gaming experience.
Innovative Battery and Design
The device also introduces the third-generation Nanhai battery, a 6600mAh silicon-carbon anode material cell designed for stable output even in extremely low temperatures. A notable innovation is the industry’s first offline communication capability, enabling long-distance real-time voice calls without network coverage, ideal for outdoor adventures.
Design-wise, the Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition retains the classic Flowing Red Ring design and NEOVISION stamp, featuring an ultra-narrow 1.25mm bezel. The rear camera lens module showcases an exclusive vacuum dual-film, multi-texture process, while the body boasts a three-dimensional micro-etched glass finish with a luxurious calfskin-like leather texture. An AI-powered customizable sliding button offers one-click access to various functions like Star Cloud Intelligence, camera, game space, and translation.
nubia Pad Pro: True AI Power, A Mighty Pad for Productivity and Entertainment
nubia marks its entry into the tablet market with the nubia Pad Pro, designing it to meet the complex needs of work, study, and entertainment. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor clocked at up to 3.3GHz, the device delivers outstanding performance. Paired with LPDDR5X high-speed memory and UFS4.0 high-speed flash storage, it delivers a remarkably smooth user experience.
Audiovisual Excellence and Sleek Design
The nubia Pad Pro excels in audiovisuals with a 10.9-inch 2.8K ultra-clear true-colour screen (2880×1800 resolution), offering rich and accurate colours. DTS X Ultra spatial 3D audio effects create an immersive, cinema-level stereo experience.
True to nubia’s design philosophy, the Pad Pro features an aerospace-grade unibody metal chassis, weighing just 523g and measuring a mere 7.3mm thin. Its 45° anti-slip tilt design enhances both portability and stability. A 20MP front HD camera ensures sharp video calls and a 78-key full-function PC keyboard layout replicates a traditional laptop’s efficient typing experience.
