Nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition launched with 6.85-inch 1.5K 144Hz OLED display, Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC
Nubia has officially launched its latest flagship Camera smartphone, the Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition in the Chinese market, as promised. It runs on the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, the device offers up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage. It also introduces Nubia’s first kilometer-level real-time offline call feature.
The standout feature of the phone is its camera system, which includes a customized 50-megapixel Light and Shadow Master 990 sensor from OmniVision. This sensor boasts a native 35mm focal length and utilizes horizontal/vertical four-phase autofocus technology.
Beyond the main camera, the Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition features a 64-megapixel 1/2″ periscope telephoto lens and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with macro capabilities. It is also equipped with a physical shutter button that allows half-press to focus and a long press to capture photos.
Nubia has also introduced a professional photography kit for the device, which includes a phone case that supports a T-mount adapter and an adapter ring compatible with standard 67mm filters, enabling users to attach ND filters or polarizers to the phone's lenses. The kit supports a shoulder strap, magnetic attachment features, and a 1/4 thread interface for tripod mounting.
During the launch, Nubia showcased a set of interchangeable lenses for the 35mm main camera, developed in collaboration with Fotogear. The T-mount external lens lineup includes a fisheye lens, a macro lens, a 139mm telephoto lens, and a 400mm super telephoto lens, allowing users to significantly expand the focal range.
The Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition features a 6.85-inch 1.5K OLED BOE Q9+ display, offering up to a 144Hz refresh rate, a 95.3% screen-to-body ratio, peak brightness of 2000 nits, and support for 2592Hz high-frequency PWM dimming and DC dimming—similar to the Nubia Z70 Ultra.
