The dual-display Nubia Z20 flagship will be released to the US market in October 2019
The ZTE Nubia Z20 is an interesting premium device that originally launched on the same week as the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 series. Its unique selling point is that, unlike these phones, it does not need a front-facing camera (not even that of a centrally-oriented punch-hole nature). This is because it has a rear-facing screen under its triple-camera set-up. However, it had not been available for sale, except in its domestic market.
This worldwide deprivation is now at an end, however: ZTE has set October 14, 2019 as a more international launch date for the Nubia Z20. It will be released in the US, Canada, the EU and the UK on this date. It will be sold in its 6 or 8GB/128GB RAM/storage SKUs in these markets from this date.
International units of the new dual-display flagship will abound in their Twilight Blue or Diamond Black color options. In addition to its premium specs, it will offer a 4000mAh battery that charges at 27 watts (W). Nubia is waiting for its upcoming release event to disclose the pricing scheme for this new prospect. However, we can tell you how to buy one: it will be sold directly through the appropriate regional versions of nubia.com.
The OEM is also running a contest to win a Z20 through this site. Called “Unbox the Future”, it goes live with the device's release, and also offers Google Play Store gift cards and other rewards as runner-up prizes.
