ZTE today launched their new Nubia Z5S and Z5S mini Android smartphones with updated processors.
While the rest of the big name brands have launched (or are planning to launch) all new flagship phones for 2014, ZTE’s Nubia brand have settled to refresh their Z5 and Z5 Mini with better performing processors.
The new Z5S and Mini both ship with a Snapdragon processors, the flagship Z5S getting a powerful 2.3Ghz Snapdragon 800 processor, They both also get updated 5 mega-pixel front cameras, and LTE support (depending on region).
As it stands the two new phones are only available in China, but as the previous Z5 has official made its way to the U.S we expect these models will also.
