I watched reviews on YouTube, Z70U uses same sensor IMX906 on the Z60 Leading Version, even tho the sensor is little bit smaller than IMX800 on Z60U in terms of sharpness no difference between these 2, but the IMX906 has better dynamic range. But the upset is this new Z70U is huge downgrade on the Ultra Wide lens and telephoto lens. The UW lens Z60U is 1/1.55" downgrade to 1/2.88". The telephoto 80mm downgrade to 70mm but it have telephoto macro, forgiveable.

NoOne75, 22 Nov 2024No true. Human eyes focal length is different - see this FY... moreI didn't say human eye's are 50mm. It just work's similarly.
The 50 mm camera lens is considered a "standard" or "normal" lens because it's close to the diagonal of a full-frame sensor. This results in a field of view that's similar to human vision.
Also I was talking about portrait. Yeah 35mm is more versatile and popular.
And human eye's are 17-24mm. But it has lot of difference. Which makes it similar to 50mm. I'm not talking about width. Yeah human eye's are more wide. But they have blind spot, are not flat (which means inconsistent focal length) and we use 2 eyes and many more.

For cameras 35mm is THE ideal focal length to shoot it all - i use that focal length since 1989, FYI! 50mm is boring as hell. Too narrow, not wide enough.
Guess WHY 35mm is the *most* used focal length bar none for primes with any DSLR/DSLM gear setup! You can shoot it all, from architecture, landscape, objects, street over portraits.

Seems we've reached peak phone camera and now all the brands are coming up with new gimmicks to sell us. Thinking to just get a camera like the Sony ZV 1, and my next phone will be the cheapest one going.

now that reviews are out, everything has gotten upgraded except wide shots quality which in return has gotten much wider & on par with others while losing OIS as well. main camera performs better than iphone16Pro or Xiaomi 15 Pro main Camera or oneplus 13. telephoto shots as a result of improved aperture & AI software optimizations is also producing more details & better shots in dark scenarios versus z60u & models mentioned above. selfie sensor shots now produce like a normal front one ones although at budget quality phones but acceptable to use in 7th gen of UDC for most of people who don't use selfie as main camera. screen brightness & viewing HDR contents also improved noticeably compared to z60u. battery life by using 2nd generation silicon Carbonade technology which is denser than before also has been improved which nubia claims it's like old 6500mah battery in practice. those who want to see reviews & comparisons or charts , check nubia_z_series channel in telegram . AI (used in chinese version which hopefully in global one we see the same implementations), can do usual conference transcribe, live subbing, etc but also as smart assistant for tasks like booking flights, receiving orders like zoom in when in camera mode or asking it to make individual in photo to frown or smile, etc. some playful modes for lights in photos have been also added plus panorama assistant to make high quality narrower panorama-style shot.
it's thinner & lighter while giving better handgrip because of 2.5d body as well.
overall, it looks like at least 2 generations upgrade and not one. hopefully with more capital from higher sales growth, ZTE nubia can extend software support on z70ultra with at least 3 android updates & 4 years of security updates

Doraemon Paimon, 21 Nov 2024It's like YouTube 1080p vs 1080p premium. Yeah 4k is ... moreExactly, I have the Axon 40 Ultra which also has an under the display selfie camera, and while its a cool feature, the selfie camera is pretty much useless. I don't even use the phone anymore and that's one of the reasons (besides terrible software support). Good thing I got the phone when it was on sale.

AnimePsycho, 21 Nov 2024It's written here that Nubia Z70 Ultra has 89,7% scree... moreYou're absolutely correct, the screen to body ratios of these devices are incorrect, especially considering that the iPhone notch is not considered part of the screen, and therefore counts against it in the screen to body ratio. I honestly don't know how they could have missed this. Even if they had considered the notch as part of the screen, it would still be less than the Z70 Ultra, because the screens are almost exactly the same same, except the Z70 Ultra has smaller bezels.

Just a fair warning to anyone thinking of purchasing a ZTE device. You'll get 1 Android update, if you're lucky, and that isn't even guaranteed. I myself purchased an ZTE Axon 40 Ultra, which at the time it came out was one of the hottest devices with great specs and hardware. At the time I purchased the phone, it had Android 12, or MyOs12. That was 2 years ago. I didn't get the Android 13 update until Android 14 was already released. I only received 1 Android update and I'm not stuck on Android 13. So, just a word of caution, while ZTE makes some solid devices, the software support is awful. And this isn't just me who has experienced this. The internet is flooded with cases of people who bought ZTE devices, only to find they will only get maybe 1 Android update. So, my Axon 40 Ultra pretty much sits at home, because if I were to make it my daily driver and put all my files, photos and info on it, I'll soon have to be upgrading it anyway since I can't update any apps past Android 13. I ended up getting a Xiaomi Note 13 Pro, which came with Android 13 out of the box and already has Android 14. It will get 3 years of Android updates so I'll still be able to use this phone for a couple of years which is more than I can ask for from a midrange device. Thanks for reading this post, and I hope this prevents others from making the same mistake I did.

Shame about the ultrawide. Z60 was perfect as a camera phone but lacked the variable apperture. Group photos always had have person out of focus, and I don't want blury backgrounds for people in nice scenery. Also the 35mm isn't good for video, especially if you use electronic stabilization. The 13mm isn't really good for anything. Seems they haven't decided who their market is. Some people are buying it for the flat screen without a notch. I want it for the camera capabilities - 35mm takes way better photos than a 24mm, even with a smaller sensor. I don't really use a selfie but also don't want to pay extra for the development of the underscreen camera and AI.

Dexter20, 21 Nov 2024Can someone explain why they would select a smaller sensor ... morethe sensor size race is as silly as the megapixel race. A few micrometers of sensor size is barely important and I'd much rather have features like adjustable aperture and better color accuracy. The question I have is why the heck they went down to 70mm, these 2x tele modules are kind of insulting.

It's written here that Nubia Z70 Ultra has 89,7% screen to body ratio. But how this parameter can be less than the one iPhone 16 Pro Max has, if Nubia doesn't have any holes in the display? And bezels are smaller on the Nubia?

Switching to Silicon carbon made this phone a lot lighter while having 150mah more battery, but damn It still be weighing a lot. The screen to body ratio is wrong, because the 16 Pro Max has larger bezels but comes in at 91.7% while having the ugly camera island gimmick.

Dexter20, 21 Nov 2024Can someone explain why they would select a smaller sensor ... moreNope, 1x photo is basically a crop from the ultrawide camera.
And no 35mm doesn't optimize more surface.(35-70,specifically 50mm is better for portrait. Because our eyes function like 50mm)
But I read in a leak this uses 6 plastic and 1 glass lens. I don't know about z60 ultra or leading. But glass lenses are better than plastic ones.
But many other companies are also adoption glass (although all chose 6p+1g combination). So bigger is better at the end.

Can someone explain why they would select a smaller sensor for the main cam? I get 1" does not get utilized to the fullest in a phone, but this 1/1.56" is smaller than a xiaomi mi 10t pro from nearly 4 years ago. Genuine question. Does the fact that it's 35mm mean that they are optimizing the surface area better?

It is lighter than the previous model the Z60? If true, then I could consider getting this as my secondary phone.

So, in the comment section of the news 2 day's before launch, people were saying the new cameras were a downgrade. I thought thought it was a mix of downgrade and side line. But no. It's a downgrade.(Well, we are talking about camera. I appreciate 12GB base model and bigger battery.........)
I appreciate the 13mm uw lens, 1/2.88' sensor
Faster focal ratio for telephoto, 70mm=35x2
Main camera seems to be the same as the one in z60 ultra leading version but z60 ultra had a bigger sensor.
I guess ZTE is just trying to make space for leading version which did not exist. Maybe to charge more money. Because leading version was launched to complete against AI advertising. But this year is not the case. So, ...... .
Also this year's model is bigger than last year's. Other companies are coming close to 6000mah with new technology. So I was hoping they would bump up the battery a little more, smaller than red magic but closer. Yeah they are still giving the biggest batteries after Asus ditched 6000mah. And this is a camera focused phone. But Asus is back to 5800 from 5500. And other camera phones are also catching up. Many spaculate 8 elite as the reason. If it's true then....... .
Guess leading version will bring them all with some extra bucks. But literally, Ultra Leading version. Companies all over the world should come together and make a naming system. Or there might come a day when phone's have name's like some anime. (company name - series name - model - ultra pro max leading version plus some thing new)
Companies are obsessed with glorifying there products
