nubia Z20 is getting unveiled on August 8

ZTE’s subsidiary nubia announced it will update the Red Magic 3 with Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset, and now a new top-tier smartphone appears on the horizon. The nubia Z20 was just confirmed to arrive with "better than ever camera" on August 8 at an event in Beijing, China.

Specs about the new flagship are scarce, and we’ve only seen some shots with the camera. Three weeks ago, during a solar eclipse in Chile, Dr. Deng Licai of the Chinese Academy of Sciences took some photos of the cosmic event with the new phone as a teaser.

More images appeared last week, revealing a 12 MP maximum resolution, meaning we should expect a 48 MP snapper with f/1.8 aperture and 27 mm focal length.

Everything else is a mystery, including the memory, the battery, and any screen size whatsoever. We will follow nubia’s account on Weibo for more teasers in the two weeks left until the event.
