The new nubia Z50S Pro is the second phone with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 2, after the launch of the related Red Magic 8S Pro. This is focused more on the camera than on games, but there are also many similarities between the two.

Starting with the camera, the 35mm lens is something you can only find on nubias and Axons and real cameras. On board there is also an 80mm periscope (8MP) and an ultra wide 50MP (125°). The design evokes classic cameras with a mix of metal and leather (well, faux leather).

The display is basically the same size as the Red Magic at 6.78 inches and is a high quality AMOLED panel – it’s sharper (452ppi vs 400ppi) and has 100% DCI-P3 coverage. This makes it a reliable camera viewfinder, so you can tweak manual controls and apply 3D LUTs and be sure the photo you get matches what you saw on screen.

It’s a 120Hz display with 1,000Hz touch sampling, so you can definitely play games on it. The Snapdragon 8+ Gen 2 chipset certainly has the oomph to handle AAA titles, though it’s only passively cooled here, so it may need a break during longer gaming sessions.
