ZTE Z5 kicks off Nubia family of high-end smartphones: 5-inch powerhouse coming in December
7
ZTE, now proudly the world’s fourth-largest smartphone maker, has unveiled its new Nubia high-end smartphone lineup and the quad-core ZTE Z5 is the first smartphone to come out of there.

We don’t know whether the inspiration for the Nubia name comes from the word standing for “cloudy” in Latin or the ancient Egyptian meaning of “gold.”

The ZTE Z5 sounds like one of the more exciting devices to come in the near future. The Z5 will have a 5-inch display (with unknown resolution, but why not hope for 1080p), a quad-core processor, 13-megapixel camera and most curiously “Italian” design. Chances are it will run on Android. Most excitingly, it will hit the Chinese market in December while the rest of the world will get to see it in more detail at CES in January 2013.

The ZTE Z5 comes right after the company’s main rival at home, Huawei, introduced the similar Ascend D2 with a 5-inch screen and a 13-megapixel camera yesterday.
