Editorial report
ZTE nubia X technical sheet
The ZTE nubia X suits buyers who want generous memory and capable hardware, provided they can accept a camera that falls below average among phones of its time. Its strongest case is room for files and a well-equipped platform; photography is the clearest compromise against phones launched around then.
The 6.26-inch IPS LCD display offers 403 ppi, a higher pixel density than most phones of its time. Its 86.6% screen-to-body ratio is also among the best, although the 181 g body is heavier than most. A Snapdragon 845, 8 GB RAM, and 512 GB storage put its hardware among the best of its time. Storage cannot be expanded.
The 3800 mAh battery has above-average capacity, while 18 W fast charging is average for its time. Connectivity is better than on most phones launched around then: there are two Nano-SIM slots, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, and USB Type-C. The 16 MP camera resolution is better than most, but there is no optical zoom or optical image stabilization, and the camera overall is below average.
With a NeoScore of 4.5, the nubia X makes more sense for buyers who put hardware and storage ahead of camera versatility.
