Hey Guys, a question to all of you "Z50 geeks" out there!
Is there no "Official" Global Version - by the manufacturer - of this phone out in the market?
All I find on Aliexpress are Chinese Version Devices with Manually installed Global Roms.
Is there no Difference (On hardware/Software/Features/Services/Bands)?
Other than the fact it will be Open Box due the Global Rom manual installation process by the retailer, I'm Concerned of such Aliexpress listings might not be ideal for global use.
Looking forward to your answers folks!
Much love.

Marcio, 06 Sep 2023I was looking for almost 2 years for a worthy replacement f... moreHello Marcio,
I'm about to buy this phone & I need your help...
I have one major question:
The phone you bought, is it a genuine GLOBAL VERSION? or just a Chinese Version Device with a Manually installed Global Rom?
Is there even a Global Version out on the market? or not yet?!
Much thanks in advance,
Farid.

Dimitris M, 13 Oct 2023How many Android versions will this phone receive ? I believe you mean software updates...? Nevertheless, It'll receive about 3 years of major software updates.

I would add to this large group of optimizations for the global version of the upcoming firmware;
- BT problems regarding lack of synchronization in voice calls starting from the MyOS13.06_NX711J_FL firmware (global version; all headphones and incompatibility with some third-party applications such as Android Auto)
- DTS-X Ultra not compatible with TWS and Wired Earphones (application presets not working on BT and Wired-TypeC3.1 digital output)

For clarification regarding the DTS-X ultra equalizer:
The application presets DO NOT work with any type of headphones, whether BT or wired. (through port 3.1c)
In my specific case and with BT Denon PerL Pro earphones, the standard equalizer works. (the graph function on frequencies)
To do this, I first performed the audio customization personalization setting, then I set the enablement of the graphic equalizer.

Post Scriptum:
DTS-X Ultra works too.
I really like how it works, unlike many other equalizers that work in specific reference frequencies and therefore on decibels,
this particular equalizer is concentrated in the sub-frequencies.
You will have clearer and warmer bass, mids and highs, depending on the sensitivity of your ear canal.
Thank you all.

Post Scriptum:
for those still interested, I found an elegant solution to the problem of the lack of sensitivity to touches near the corners.
The solution is in the MyOS software itself.
It is not enough just to go to the prevention of incorrect touching on the edges of the screen, but you must also go to the "most hidden" option; Gesture settings, found in System Navigation.
For those who are minimalists like myself, I always recommend the very light Simple Keyboard (it is an AOSP "Plus"), which you can find in the F-Droid repository.
Thank you all.

Update:
After several attempts with the ZTE Nubia Z50 device that I previously had, in an attempt to find a solution to the problem of lack of synchronization in calls with any wireless-BT headphones (and in my specific case, the Denon PerL Pro), I decided to ask for a replacement with the exact same model.
This was to make sure that it was just an unfortunate faulty model.
And indeed, it seems that way.
I carried out the exact same tests, and at the moment it seems to cause no problems with the TWS earphones.
I just want to specify that the Android operating system firmware has not been updated as in the previous model I own;
- MyOS13.0.6
But he remained, by choice, with the version;
- MyOS13.0.2
I would like to underline that to avoid running into the same (serious) previous problem of the BT not working, I decided to keep it with 13.0.2 (May 2023), waiting for a version higher than 13.0.6 Nubia to appear on ZTE.
Obviously the BT problem with the latest version of Android can happen to those who live in Europe (at least in my case), therefore, if you were to unfortunately run into this Bug, at least you will have the certainty that it is not of a hardware nature (or a model unfortunate, as in my case).
For the rest I am very satisfied.
It is the BestBuy of the moment, for those who can afford the expense.
Thank you all.

As regards the BT BUG, in the failure to transfer the call to the headphones (in my specific case they are Denon PerL Pro), I can give a further clarification.
When BT is activated and the consequent synchronization and pairing of the headphones, at the time of the call from the same (or another) operator (I presume), the modem switches to 3G in my case. (I have a single SIM that handles both voice and data)
So, even if in 4G or 5G, or while using the data protocol (internet), the voice call is redirected to the 3G frequency of my specific European operator.
The problem therefore occurs every time you enable BT and perform automatic pairing with the headphones. (already listed and registered)
Therefore, at EVERY first voice call (swith in 3G of the modem for voice calls), the BT module is unable to transmit to the headphones.
As proof of this, it also happens that the BT settings give connection ERROR to the headphones.
I hope that I have done something pleasant (and that some ZTE engineers listening are reading) and that I can hope for a next update that will definitively resolve the problem.
Thank you all.

Post Scriptum;
For all those who experience the touvh problem at the corners of the screen;
- it's an AOSP keyboard problem.
Just install the keyboard: Simply Keyboard, which you can find in the F-Droid repository.
It's exactly the AOSP keyboard, but more functional and without the problem of missed touches at the corners.
(at least in my case it worked)
