The main highlight of the phone is the camera, since this uses OmniVision’s customized 50-megapixel sensor, the Light and Shadow Master 990. The sensor has a native 35mm focal length and uses Omnivision’s horizontal/vertical quad-phase detection autofocus (H/V QPD), DCG dual conversion gain HDR technology, and other leading innovations to meet all-scenario shooting needs, achieving image quality that exceeds one-inch standards.
In addition to the main camera, the Nubia Z70S Ultra is equipped with a 64-megapixel 1/2″ periscope telephoto lens and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with macro support, and is equipped with a physical shutter button offering half-press to focus, long press to shoot.
To enhance the photography experience for enthusiasts, nubia has created a professional Retro kit for the Z70 series. This includes a classic phone case, the Neo Bar smart camera control bar, filter adapter rings, and more — offering extensive expansion capabilities, turning the smartphone into a professional-grade camera with a premium feel.
