ZTE throws its hat in the Android flagship ring with $400
Nubia Z9 Max
A standout with extreme affordability, tongue-in-cheek
product names, little software gimmicks innovations and big biometric breakthroughs these past few
months, ZTE was bound to get serious about its mainstream high-end prospects sooner or later.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the top-tier, conventionally specced out Nubia Z9 Max has gone official in
China right on time to take on Samsung's Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge or HTC's One M9. Considerably
cheaper than all three of its high-profile rivals, at the rough equivalent of $400, the Z9 Max catches
the eye first and foremost thanks to an uber-elegant chassis.
This is molded out of a premium combination of titanium and aluminum, with a fortified patterned
glass rear that doesn't seem to reflect light as aggressively as S6's back cover. No words on whether
the humble 2,900 mAh battery is user removable, but we presume it is, since microSD support
comes standard.
Measuring just 7.9 mm thin and tipping the scales at 147 grams, the Z9 Max is quite the beast when
you look beyond its stylish exterior, packing octa-core 64-bit Snapdragon 810 power and 3 GB RAM.
Of course, the 5.5-inch display isn't record-breakingly sharp, at 1,080p resolution, or else the $400
price point would have been completely unrealistic.
Speaking of staggeringly low MSRPs, the Nubia Z9 Mini is also formally out, and it's appraised at
only $240 with an octa-core Snapdragon 615 chip, 2 GB RAM, 5-inch Full HD screen and 16 MP/8
MP cameras matching the photographic units sported by big bro.
Android 5.0 Lollipop software is offered out the box in both cases, while the commercial release date
remains a mystery. And so do the two phones' target markets. Please, ZTE, pretty please, don't keep
them hidden from Western audiences in dire need of low-cost GS6 alternatives.
