ZTE Nubia Focus 2 Ultra 5G

The ZTE Nubia Focus 2 Ultra 5G has a standard, non-folding form factor with a thickness of 7.49mm and a width of 74.9mm, giving it a relatively slim profile for a 6.7″ device. It weighs 200g, which sits in the typical range for smartphones of this screen size. The handset does not feature a rugged build and carries no water resistance rating, meaning it offers no certified protection against moisture or physical stress.

The display is a 6.7″ IPS LCD touch screen running at a 120Hz refresh rate, which enables smoother on-screen motion during scrolling and general use. It renders content at a resolution of 720 x 1600 px with a pixel density of 262 ppi, placing it at an HD level of sharpness. The panel does not support HDR10, HDR10+, or Dolby Vision, and there is no Always-On Display mode or secondary screen. It also lacks branded damage-resistant glass coverage.

The device is powered by the Unisoc Tanggula T760, a 7nm octa-core chipset with four cores clocked at 2.2 GHz and four at 1.8 GHz, using big.LITTLE technology to balance workload distribution across 8 threads. It is paired with 12GB of DDR4 RAM running at 2133 MHz across two memory channels, with a maximum supported memory ceiling of 32GB, though ECC memory is not supported. Graphics are handled by an integrated Mali-G57 GPU with a turbo frequency of 650 MHz, supporting DirectX 12, OpenGL ES 3.2, and OpenCL 2. The chipset also includes integrated LTE, TrustZone security, and full 64-bit support. In Geekbench 5 testing, the platform scores 541 in the single-core test and 2155 in the multi-core test. Internal storage stands at 512GB, providing ample space for apps, media, and files.

The rear camera system features a 50MP multi-lens CMOS sensor capable of recording 4K video at 30fps, with continuous autofocus during recording and phase-detection autofocus for stills. Manual controls cover exposure, ISO, focus, and white balance, while additional shooting modes include HDR, burst, panorama, timelapse, and slow-motion video. A single LED flash is present, though dual-tone and RGB flash variants are not included, and optical image stabilization, laser autofocus, RAW capture, manual shutter speed, and 360° panorama are absent. The main camera has no optical zoom. On the front, a 32MP single-lens camera handles selfies without a dedicated flash or an under-display placement. HDR10 and Dolby Vision recording are not supported on either camera, and 3D photo or video capture is not available.

The device runs Android 15 as a free and open-source platform, supporting multi-user access, split-screen multitasking, Picture-in-Picture, widgets, and app offloading. Privacy tools include clipboard warnings, location privacy options, camera and microphone access controls, and the ability to block app tracking, though cross-site tracking blocking, Mail Privacy Protection, and Wi-Fi password sharing are not available. Customization options span dark mode, dynamic theming, and theme customization, while productivity is aided by full-page screenshots, Live Text, customizable notifications, a media picker, and the ability to play games during downloads. The OS also includes on-device machine learning, offline voice recognition, voice commands, device tracking, a child lock, battery health check, and an extra dim mode. Direct OS updates from the vendor are not supported, and neither Quick Start nor focus modes are present.

The device is equipped with a 5000 mAh rechargeable, non-removable battery that supports 33W fast charging, and a charger is included in the box. A battery level indicator is present to keep track of remaining charge. Wireless charging is not supported.

Audio output is handled by stereo speakers, though there is no 3.5mm headphone jack for wired listening. Wireless audio codec support is limited, with no aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless, or LDAC available. A radio receiver is also absent.

The device supports 5G connectivity alongside dual SIM capability and Wi-Fi across both Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) standards. It connects via USB Type-C at USB 2.0 speeds and includes NFC for short-range wireless communication. A fingerprint scanner handles biometric authentication, while 3D facial recognition and iris scanning are not available. Navigation is covered by GPS with Galileo support, and onboard sensors include a gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass. A barometer, infrared sensor, heart rate monitor, ANT+ support, HDMI output, DLNA certification, built-in projector, crash detection, satellite SOS, and a stylus are all absent.

The device includes a video light to assist with recording in low-light conditions. The display is flat rather than curved and uses neither sapphire glass nor an e-paper panel.
