Nubia launched the Z11 today and what has surprised us is that they are going for a world’s thinnest title.
Ok, so Nubia aren’t claiming that the Z11 is the thinnest phone ever made, but they are saying that it is the thinnest smartphone with 5.5-inch display currently available. The actual figures come in at 72.3 x 151.8 with a thickness of only 7.5mm.
Delving in to the specifications we find that the Z11 has a 2.5D curved tempered glass panel, FHD (1920 x 1080) display, and a screen to body ratio of 81%.
Nubia hope the Z11 will lure you away from other flagship phones so they have given the handset a Snapdragon 820 chipset, and options for either 4GB or 6GB RAM. Storage various depending on the RAM version you choose, 64GB is the least you can get while 128GB is the max.
Gizchina News of the week
Like other Nubia phones, the Z11 claims to have DSLR rivalling camera quality with OIS and 16 mega-pixel sensor. The front camera is an 8 mega-pixel shooter.
Other interesting details are a rear fingerprint scanner, 3000mAh battery, fast charging, HIFI audio and Dolby Atmos.
Perhaps the most exciting detail of the Nubia Z11 is the availability. Nubia will launch the phone in the UK, Europe, India, Thailand, the U.S. Mexico and Argentina to name just a few. Pricing for the standard 4GB model will kick off at 499 Euros with the special edition gold and black with more memory will cost you 599 Euros.
Hehehe. Nubias keep getting expensive. But a just few persons really do appreciate their cameras. Seems like the most underated camera phone.
i would buy one if i had the cash
Haven’t been able to purchase a device that satisfied me the way the Nubia Z7 Max did. It will be difficult doing that now. I got mine for $350 that is about N65,000 in my local currency. Guess how much that same amount is now? $350 is now N122,500. I got the Bluboo Maya for N24,500 had it been at the rate of 2014 same Maya would have been N13,000. I need to leave this country man.
Sai Baba Buhari !
Hehehe. I need to shoot you. Don’t wowi, he will return Naira to N1 = $1. Have faith.
More like N0.5 = $50. LMFAO
I’m gonna fire a ballistic missile at you for saying that, not just shoot you.
Buhari has ruined this country’s economy so bad.
The Economy is very bad , i still dont know what that old man is trying to ‘fix’
sounds like how my country jamaica is going your cost just stop at conversion but when my countries high Taxes and duties kick in basically everypone will cost 2x or near 2X the price if i buy a one plus 3 it would be paying around 680 to 700 usd for it and our dollar is just sliding away
The Nubia Z7Max is now available for US$120 from a few sellers like Banggood, Tinydeal etc.. I bought mine a year ago for US190. You can update the software to Nubia Ui 4.0.
tell me about it :p
O.O
I had 4 Nubias..
Z5S Z7 Max X6 and now hold Z9 Max Elite..
They are both good or great I guess, but their cameras are awful…
I compared the Z9 Max Elite to the new Mi Max.. It is just.. not even close.. Mi Max is like 3-4 times better.
You probably don’t know how to use the camera. The auto mode in the nubia range is appalling. However manual mode allows you to capture amazing photos if you know how to use it.
Nope I know how to use it. Yes the pro mode is great, but … I want to take quick photos.. I mean yes if I want to chill at home to take one or two great photos sure. But if I want to capture something on the go I would not want to adjust the exposure and focus etc.. I want to just tap and take the photo..
ALL of Nubia phones I had don’t do that for me.. The fun mode is really fun lol
I like to make two or three items appear in the same photo and play with the multi exposure etc…
Trajectory mode is amazing!! ah don’t even get me started about the light painting it is just fun… I loved all of the modes, but I hated the quality of the normal photos 🙁
weird…. I had totally the opposite experience – I got better pics with my Z9 Max than I did with the work iPhone 6s. I’ve never had a phone with a camera as good as that on the Z9 Max (which doesn’t even have physical OIS), it did a great job without manually adjusting in the advanced options. The fact yours didn’t give you good pics is very odd indeed.
Yes ISO is very good and shutter is also very good. Focus has great potintional.
But quality is not very good.
I don’t know if I am wrong. I tried it as much as I could, but I just can not do it 🙁
Moto Z is 5.2mm and has 5.5″ screen …
Lies …
yes, but Nubia is counting the camera bump on the Moto Z.
However Oppo r9 is just 7.4mm thick with an 6′ inch screen.
dat price tho…
So is this different from the bezel less z11 that launched a few weeks ago with the same specs? If so how are you guys only getting round to mentioning it now?
It’s the same phone, but it has band 20 because it was officially released today (hence they’re covering the news today) for european markets!
What about the battery capacity ?
3000mAh.Read article attentively.
Argentina? No Brazil, no Chile, are they crazy!?
Hm… Andy, not thinnest, but slimmest. Isn’t so?
“Ok, so Nubia aren’t claiming that the Z11 is the thinnest phone ever made, but they are saying that it is the thinnest smartphone with 5.5-inch display currently available.”
The following phones would disagree with that statement:
OnePlus 3 – 7.4mm
Oppo F1 Plus – 6.6mm
Iphone 6s – 7.3mm
Moto Z – 5.2mm
Huawei P9 Plus – 7mm
Huawei G9 Plus – 7.3mm
Huawei Nova Plus – 7.3mm
Gionee S6 – 6.9mm
Gionee S8 – 7mm
There’s probably even more to.
“They are saying that it is the thinnest smartphone with 5.5-inch display currently available.”
It isn’t true, but Nubia Z11 is the less width with 5.5″ and only 7.23 Cm
Launching in the UK?!?!?!?!?!?! Does it have band 20 for 4g on the UK networks then? I was lead to believe it didn’t. If it does I will almost certainly buy it, as I’m only using a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro as an interim (since the demise of my Z9 Max) until I can find something decent (the ZUK Z2 Pro 128gb in black seems to bade from unobtanium). The camera on the Note 3 snapdragon is just plain terrible after using a Nubia for so long…
Yeah – not true. My honor 6 plus is 5.5 inches and only 7.5mm (with a battery of 3,600mah)
