ZTE Nubia Z18 is official with 91.8% screen-to-body ratio

05 September 2018
We do hope this Nubia makes it out of China because it has all the makings of a flagship.

              needsmartfon, 06 Sep 2018Is that good or bad? (f1.6) The higher the better right?Its It's great overall. The lower the brighter. So the f1.5 in the galaxy is the only brighter one.
              The only downside is that there is slightly less detail in the wider apertures. But it gathers more light and can focus faster. So quicker and less noisy photos. Better bokeh.
              F1.6 should bring some decent results on the 24mp. Assuming the processing of the images is not to bad or overboard.

                For those who are still mindlessly crying for the 3.5mm jack.
                It comes with a 32-bit DAC dongle. Read the spec sheet. Lol.
                That's the highest quality you can get.
                Like on S9 and G6 through their 3.5mm jack, or Xperia XZ3 and HTC U12+ through bluetooth.

                  Dave, 06 Sep 2018No headphone jack = No buy.Then go back to your mid rangers with 16-bit DACs.
                  Leave it for those who actually know what quality is.

                            Sharp was the first that was "bezeless" (I.e. StB ratio over 80%).

                            Also ZTE is lying. This phone is 85% not 92% . 92% is impossible with current tech.

                            Wait 2-3 years to actually get over 90% (I.m sire they would be calling it 100% screen by then)

                                    Nubia started the real bezeless side phones in 2014 with their Z9, z11, z17/ z17s. I've owned z9&z11. Z11 had everything one could want in 2016, 3.5mm, microsd.

                                    And PLEASE gsmarena. Update your phone info's. ZTE does NOT own NUBIA anymore. Since 2 years ago.
                                    Nubia is now owned by SUNNING CORP.

                                    Have a nice day ~
