Short Review

  • The ZTE nubia Z7 features a sleek design with dimensions of 153.2 x 75.7 x 8.9 mm and a weight that feels balanced in hand.
  • Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a sharp resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels, delivering a pixel density of approximately 538 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset, with a quad-core 2.5 GHz CPU and Adreno 330 GPU, supported by 3GB of RAM.
  • The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with optical image stabilization, capable of recording 4K video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera serves for selfies.
  • The battery capacity is 3000 mAh, but it lacks fast charging and wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 4.4.2 with nubia UI 2, the software experience is relatively dated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and NFC, but it does not support 5G.
  • The phone is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and features a headphone jack.
  • Available in black and white, the build quality is solid, though it lacks water resistance.
  • Overall, the ZTE nubia Z7 combines a high-resolution display with competent performance and camera capabilities.
