Despite clearly being targeted at gamers, the Nubia has something quite unique to offer in the camera department as well; it is the first smartphone to come with 8K video recording. Additionally, the camera can record slow-motion video at a whopping 1,920 frames per second although no resolution has been specified yet for this ultra-slow-motion mode. In terms of camera hardware the Nubia comes with a single-camera that uses a 48MP Sony IMX586 sensor and an F1.7 aperture, but lacks optical image stabilization.

So, while other camera specs aren't anything out of the extraordinary the 8K option should make the Nubia interesting to anyone who is creating high-resolution video. It will launch in China on May 3rd and start from approximately $430 for the version with 6GB RAM and 64GB storage. The top-of-the-line model with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage will set you back $640. A launch in other regions, including the US, Canada and Europe is scheduled for the end of May but no pricing information is available yet.

The 8K video is interpolated from 4K, the sensor itself does not have a 8K capture mode.

Also the 1920fps mode is also interpolated from 960fps capture.

Marketing BS.
 
Isn't ZTE one of the manufacturers on the NSA prohibited list due to the likelihood of backdoors and spyware?
 
Last April, the U.S. Commerce Department banned American businesses from selling components to ZTE, citing violations of sanctions against Iran and North Korea. Unable to procure semiconductors, the Chinese company to suspend operations.

The embargo was lifted three months later in exchange for the Chinese company paying a $1 billion fine to the U.S. and placing another $400 million in escrow.
