Alleged real life pictures of the bezelless Nubia Z11 leaked

We've been waiting for a proper successor to the Nubia Z9 for a while now – a striking smartphone with premium design and with no side bezels around its display. Said successor is the rumored Nubia Z11, which may actually hit US markets this year according to some reports. Now, we actually get to see it in a set of leaked real life photos. Well — allegedly, that is.

Apparently, unlike its predecessor, which sported a huge glass slab on its back, the Nubia Z11's behind is entirely metal. It will also house a fingerprint-scanning dimple on its back, and, of course, the much-needed antenna strips. The camera and LED flash are in the exact same spots as before.

On the front, we have the typically striking screen – laid from edge to edge and curved at the ends, the glass panel refracts the light coming from the display in such a way that it creates the “bezel-less” illusion. Below it we have the Nubia-signature circular capacitive button.

We also get a comparison with an iPhone 6s, in which we can see that the new Nubia will be much thinner this time around — we did have an issue with the Z9's thickness and weight last year, so here's hoping that we will see a much more elegant handset this time around.
