Editorial report
ZTE nubia Z50 Ultra 16 GB / 1 TB / China technical sheet
The ZTE nubia Z50 Ultra suits anyone looking for a powerful photography phone with a large display. Its camera is among the best on phones of its time, and its display is brighter than most. The clearest trade-off is weight: at 228 g, it is heavier than most phones launched around the same time. This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage; the phone is also sold in configurations up to 16 GB / 1 TB.
The 6.8″ AMOLED display reaches 1500 nits peak brightness and covers 89.3% of the front. Its 120 Hz refresh rate is typical for its time. Performance is among the best, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2; this configuration has 8 GB of RAM. The rear setup combines a 64 MP camera with an f/1.6 aperture and optical image stabilization, a telephoto camera with 3.3x optical zoom, and an ultrawide camera. Both the 64 MP resolution and f/1.6 aperture compare favorably with those of most phones of its time.
The 5000 mAh battery has typical capacity, while 80 W fast charging is higher than on most phones of its time. The phone has no Google Services. Its connectivity is among the best of its time. With a NeoScore of 7.6, it is a standout choice for anyone who prioritizes versatile cameras, fast charging, and a bright display, and can accept a heavier phone without Google Services.
