nubia Z17 mini said to be the ZTE handset with dual rear cameras launching on March 21
A few short hours ago we told you that ZTE is
getting ready to unveil a new nubia-branded smartphone on March 21. This will
be the sub-brand's first model to sport a dual rear camera setup, and the
Chinese company is already sending invites for the event.
Now a list of purported specs for that device
arrives via Weibo, complete with its name. Apparently it will be called nubia
Z17 mini. Needless to say, take all of this with a hefty dose of salt since
it's just one unconfirmed rumor for now.
The Z17 mini would succeed the Z11 mini from
last year. And sure, ZTE has gotten us used to skipping numbers for the nubia
line - after all, the Z11 came after the Z9. But jumping from 11 straight to
17? That seems a bit extreme, though of course nothing's impossible in the
mobile world.
Anyway, let's talk specs. The Z17 mini will
allegedly come with a 5.2-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 13 MP + 13 MP dual rear
camera setup (with two Sony IMX258 sensors), a 16 MP front-facing camera for
selfies, 64GB of storage, a USB Type-C port, and a 3,000 mAh battery with
support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0.
The chipset used and amount of RAM you get
will vary depending on which version you buy. One will come with the Snapdragon
652 paired with 4GB of RAM, another with the Snapdragon 653 and 6GB of memory.
These will be out in black and gold. There will be an additional blue model
sporting the SD653 chip but 4GB of RAM for whatever reason.
Prices will start at CNY 1,899 for the
SD652/4GB versions, and right now that translates into about $274 or €257.
