Nubia My Prague: the subtle soul of strong nature

We never thought that we would write these words to Geektimes, but geeks are not alien to romance. The degree of which, according to commercial calculations, will certainly increase with the approach of February 14. Anyway, the holiday was finally registered among the Russian traditions, and our loved ones are waiting for nice surprises, even if they don’t give an appearance and in every way express dissatisfaction with this day. And of course, there is no better attribute for expressing feelings than a smartphone: instant messengers, letters, pictures, joint selfies, immediately installed love story, music and, of course, short calls and long conversations. Our team plunged into a heap of new products and chose three smartphones that can be a good gift. And we begin with a review of the thin and truly sophisticated phone from Nubia.


ZTE is the second largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer in China and definitely knows a lot about mobile technology. Under its sub-brand Nubia in 2015, the company released several interesting smartphones that followed the flagship Nubia Z9. Among the new products, Nubia My Prague stands out the most, for which the manufacturer chose the slogan “When a smartphone intersects with art” (When smartphone comes across art). Whether these words are true, we will tell a little lower, but for now - more to the point.

Where it is thin, there is discharged


The smartphone turned out to be thin (only 5.5 mm) and at the same time durable - the back panel and frame are made of aluminum. At the same time, the diagonal of the device is 5.2 ", so there is nothing to please fans of smaller phones. However, this size is fully justified by the display quality: super AMOLED matrix, Full HD resolution (1920x1080 pixels), oleophobic coverage. You can even watch videos and photos in bright light - the screen does not fade, the image remains sharp.In Nubia My Prague uses glass 2.5D (curved glass), due to which ZTE was able to implement FiT technology (as in the flagship Z9), which makes it possible to control several functions using gestures and prik snoveny to the edges of the screen.

The smartphone has two slots for SIM-cards (one for nano, the second for micro). By the way, the slot for nano-SIM is simultaneously a slot for a microSD memory card up to 128 GB. So either more memory or two SIM cards and cloud storage. They call it a multifunctional slot design.

Of course, that 5.5 mm thickness is not able to accommodate some kind of super battery, so the Li-Pol battery is quite average - 2,200 mAh. Talk time: in GSM and WCDMA networks - 27 hours, standby time - 426 hours. True, the manufacturer promises fast charging technology - 25% of the battery in 10 minutes.

But in general, it turned out a good model, honed for entertainment. With this screen and sound, you can quite comfortably watch movies and concerts, and with the camera you can shoot something of your own. No wonder the manufacturer focuses on the photo-capabilities of Nubia My Prague.

So what about art?


In the case of Nubia My Prague, we are talking about the art of photography. In addition to a good camera, the manufacturers equipped the smartphone with a convenient photo editor, in which interesting filters are available. Of course, in the style of old Prague, namely in the style of the Czech artist Alphonse Mucha. That is, photos can look vintage and stylish. Like that:



Or even like this:



In addition to the Fly-filter, the smartphone is equipped with many tricks for selfie lovers:




Additionally, on the left side of the smartphone has a special button for selfie. They say that this is done according to the rule “Left Self is more beautiful”. What you will not know from mobile marketers!
