The familiar Nubia seemed to be back. On February 25, Nubia officially released the new flagship Z40 Pro, which is significantly different from the past generations of products, and the pricing this time is finally more grounded, only 3399 yuan. As a comparison, last year's Nubia Z30 Pro price of 4999 yuan, if compared with the same 8GB + 256GB version, Z40 Pro is also cheaper than Z30 Pro by a full 1300 yuan. It is worth mentioning that the more comprehensively positioned Nubia Z40 Pro, starting at only 100 yuan more expensive than the Redmi K50 esports version.
Nubia Z40 Pro is equipped with a 6.67-inch curved AMOLED screen, resolution 2400 * 1080 pixels, support 144Hz high refresh rate, according to the past Nubia's conventional operation, this should be a domestic screen, the supplier is most likely to be Visionox. Although the domestic screen has made significant progress in recent years, if it is placed in the current snapdragon 8 flagship, the screen quality of the Nubia Z40 Pro may rank lower.
As another Snapdragon 8 flagship, nubian Z40 Pro is naturally equipped with UFS3.1 flash memory and full blood version of LPDDR5 memory, and the official Antu rabbit running score exceeds 1.07 million. Like friends, Nubia also emphasizes that the Snapdragon 8 has been deeply tuned, and the heat dissipation is also a variety of "additives". According to the official comparison data, after nubia Z40 Pro and Xiaomi Mi 12 played the original god for half an hour, the maximum temperature on the back of the two was 38.5 ° C and 44.9 ° C, respectively, and the difference was more than 7 ° C.
Nubia Z40 Pro built-in 5000mAh battery, but the more strange is the fast charge actually opened the reverse, using 80W fast charging, the previous generation model is 120W fast charging and standard 120W gallium nitride charger, of course, here is to save a certain cost. As for the first Android magnetic wireless charging previously warmed up, only the Nubia Z40 Pro Gravity Edition has it, but this model is priced higher (the same configuration is 300 yuan more expensive), the 15W wireless fast charging efficiency does not dare to compliment, the battery capacity is reduced to 4600mAh, and the wired fast charging is also reduced to 66W.
In the matter of video, nubian flagship aircraft has always had a super enthusiasm and is not afraid of tossing. On the Nubia Z40 Pro, the 64-megapixel humanistic three-main camera scheme used by the previous generation of flagship machines was overturned in one fell swoop (perhaps also for cost considerations), and the new presentation to the user was a custom main camera Sony IMX 787, with an equivalent 35mm focal length and 1.6 large aperture, compared to the 26mm lens, optical distortion was reduced by 35%, Nubia said that this is the closest to the human eye perspective, the most story-like main camera focal length.
The other two lenses are 50 million ultra-wide angle and 8 million pixel periscope telephoto, according to the ultra-wide end 14mm equivalent focal length to calculate, the equivalent 125mm telephoto to achieve the overall 9 times optical zoom, if it is calculated from the main camera 35mm, it is about 3.6 times the optical zoom, but it has to be said that the 8 million pixel telephoto configuration will make people feel unexpected.
The Nubia camera family has always been a topic of conversation among cowboys and professional gamers, and the Nubia Z40 Pro has brought further upgrades, including more shooting stars. Combined with AI and astronomical data, the Nubia Z40 Pro can even capture constellations, something that most professional cameras can't do. So does that mean Nubia surpasses professional cameras this time? Non-also, more precisely, it should be a victory in calculating photography, and if you want to do it, it should not be too difficult.
In other respects, the Nubia Z40 Pro weighs 199 grams, has a thickness of 8.4mm, has a built-in multi-function NFC, and runs the MyOS12 system. Although MyOS is inferior to the well-known Android OS, and the aesthetic design of the overall UI is slightly inferior, ZTE and Nubia are working hard to improve, and the experience of daily basic functions should still be reassuring.
Nubia Z40 Pro and Z40 Pro Gravity Edition are available in two colors, Interstellar Black and Galaxy Silver, which will be sold throughout the channel on March 2, in addition to the machine also has a one-person gravity limited edition provided, 12GB + 256GB priced at 4699 yuan, not the customized version is expensive 400 yuan.
Keke comments: After making some compromises in positioning and configuration, the Nubia Z40 Pro returned to a higher cost performance.
