As we type Nubia are in the process of launching three new smartphones. The Nubia Z7 , Z7 Mini and Nubia Z7 Max, here are the details so far.
Nubia’s new phones, the Z7 Mini and Z7 Max have been designed to replace the ageing (but still rather good) Z5 line-up. Like the Z5’s, Nubia have produced a large and small device to cater for customers needs, however both phones are larger than the devices they replace.
The Z7 Mini is a 5-inch 1920 x 1080 phone with Snapdragon 801 processor, LTE, 5 mega-pixel front camera, and 13 mega-pixel F2.0 aperture rear camera. The small, but powerful phone will come in a wide range of bright colours including green, blue, yellow and red and ships with the latest version of Nubia’s custom Anroid ROM.
Gizchina News of the week
Taking over from the Nubia Z5 is the Z7 Max. Max might conjure up ideas of a huge phablet, but in the case of the Nubia Z7 Max we are talking about just a 5.5-inch display. The panel is a FHD unit, we get the same camera set up as the Nubia Z7 Mini, LTE and another Snapdragon 801 chipset.
The flagship though is the Nubia Z7 which has a Snapdragon 801, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal memory and even dual SIM Support for 4G LTE and 3G networks! The Z7 has a 5.5-inch panel like the Max but with a higher 2K 2560 x 1440 resolution display. Camera specs are similar again with the front being a 5 mega-pixel shooter and rear a 13 mega-pixel F2.0 with OIS.
We are waiting for the launch to end so that we can post pricing and release details.
Not a bad lineup. Just don’t feel the prices will be as enticing.
I always wanted a Z5s with LTE but never find it on resellers, those new phones will be expensive I think, Z7 mini is OK, better than Z5 mini
Batterysize???
ZTE just blew the OnePlus out of the water (specs-wise). All they now have to do is go for the OnePlus throat with a pricing cut.
I just hope they don’t tow OnePlus’s dishonesty line.
What is their custom rom like to use though ?
A turd
These guys are straight shooters. Although that doesn’t make them magically able to deliver devices in a timely fashion. They still haven’t shipped the X6 yet!
So uh, Z7 is better than Z7 max while they’re of the same form factor? Okay ZTE.

The Prices are according to nubia.cn:
Z7 CNY 3456 – 557$
Z7 max CNY 1999 – 322$
Z7 mini CNY 1499 – 242$
It is unfortunate that camera with OIS is only in Z7 and not in Z7 Max, because I don’t see the need of 2K in smartphone, and 2K version obviously will be priced high.
then buy the X6 instead. it’s only 1080p
it has two SIMs
ZTE Nubia Z7- 557$
ZTE Nubia Z7 MAX-322$
ZTE Nubia Z7 mini-241$

Dual SIM on a decent phone at last 🙂 it’s taken how long …?
Definitely up amongst the best if not the best phone. Not a fan of ZTE tbh.

Finally a perfect Asia phone! 4G and dual sims for China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Bangkok! combine this with the currently fastest processor, 2K screen, Android 4.4, and 3GB memory, and you’ve got a winner! The only think that could have made it better would have been including LTE bands 4 & 17.
Hopefully ZTE can get production rolling quickly on these. The X6 STILL isn’t available in either the 33GB or 128GB configuration, and it was announced quite a while ago!

Looking good. Might look into z7 mini. As I said before many many times before most Chinese branded phones have mediocre to shite camera quality apart from one plus, oppo and vivo recently. Z7 camera looks promising. 🙂
