Editorial report
ZTE nubia Z50 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The ZTE nubia Z50 suits buyers seeking a high-spec Android phone with a standout display and broad connectivity. This China-market version has no Google Services, a major limitation for anyone who relies on Google apps and services. The phone is also sold in configurations ranging from 8 GB / 128 GB to 16 GB / 1 TB.
Its 6.67-inch AMOLED display pairs a 144 Hz refresh rate with a 90.4% screen-to-body ratio; both are among the best of its time. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and its AnTuTu result put performance better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The camera overall also stands better than most: its 64 MP resolution is better than most, while its f/1.6 aperture is among the best. It also has a 50 MP ultrawide camera and optical image stabilization on the 64 MP camera.
The 5000 mAh battery capacity is typical, but 80 W fast charging is better than that of most phones of its time. Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and 5G round out the connectivity. Its overall NeoScore is 7.3. This is a compelling option for buyers prioritizing the display, performance, and camera hardware, provided the absence of Google Services in this version is acceptable.
