The Nubia Z70S Ultra: A New Standard in Smartphone Photography
Following the groundbreaking Vivo X200 Ultra, the Nubia Z70S Ultra sets a new benchmark in smartphone photography with its advanced camera capabilities. Building on the Z70 Ultra’s foundation, the Z70S Ultra enhances the user experience with a larger battery and superior camera technology, aiming to compete with the top-tier flagship models.
Features of the Nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition
The Nubia Z70S Ultra continues to impress with a vibrant 6.85-inch AMOLED display, complete with an under-display front camera. This display boasts a resolution of 2,688 x 1,216, offering a refresh rate of 144 Hz and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. Unlike its predecessor, it is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i rather than Longxi Glass Gen 2.
Also known as the Nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition, this device is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset from Qualcomm. It offers up to 24 GB of RAM (LPDDR5x) and storage options reaching up to 1TB (UFS 4.0), ensuring a seamless and powerful performance. The smartphone is equipped with a robust 6,600 mAh battery that supports fast 80W wired charging.
Camera Innovations and Add-ons
The Nubia Z70S Ultra distinguishes itself from its predecessor with significant upgrades in camera technology. The front camera now features a larger aperture, transitioning from f/2.5 to f/2.0, allowing more light to enhance image quality. The rear camera setup includes a 50 MP main lens with a 35 mm equivalent focal length and a 1/1.3-inch optical format. Additionally, it features a 64 MP telephoto lens with an f/2.48 aperture and a 1/2-inch optical format, along with a 50 MP ultra-wide lens supportive of macro photography.
For photography enthusiasts, Nubia offers an optional photography kit compatible with 67mm filters and clip-on lenses at 135mm or 400mm, which are sold separately. The device is equipped with a physical shutter button, enabling focus with a half-press and capture with a full press.
