Z50 Ultra
Notchless 35mm + 85mm focal-length flagship.
The Nubia Z50 Ultra is a flagship Nubia smartphone released Mar 2023, with a launch price of $640. It pairs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with a 6.8" FHD+ AMOLED 120Hz, UDC display, a 64 MP 35mm + 64 MP UW + 64 MP 85mm portrait main camera and a 5000 mAh, 80W battery. In SpecEagle's editorial review it scores 84/100 — A camera for photographers. Standout strengths: classic 35mm + 85mm focal lengths from photography and notchless udc display. Main trade-off: no conventional 24mm wide — niche framing.
A camera for photographers.
Z50 Ultra borrowed the focal lengths from full-frame photography — 35mm street and 85mm portrait — and skipped the conventional 24mm wide entirely. A bold camera philosophy that drew enthusiasts who shoot like photographers.
