Nubia Z11 Max Package Contents

Nubia Z11 Max is positioned as a premium mid-range smartphone. The packaging uses a soft finish and the developers paid considerable attention to its design. The outside is all black with a gold border around the Nubia logo, and the inside of the box is gold. Keep it minimalistic, the matte finish and color combination gives it a premium feel.

There is nothing special inside the packaging itself. There is a smartphone, a cable, Charger, sticker and user manual. No headphones, extra connectors or protective materials.

Components and design

The Z11 Max has a high-quality design and minimal bezels around the edges of the screen, which makes the device even more attractive. The metal body has a high-end finish and gives the smartphone the feel of a high-end device. Despite the 6-inch screen, the smartphone fits in your pocket.

The review considered an option with a gold case, not too bright. There are also silver and gray options. The anodized metal is processed perfectly, there are no irregularities or dents. The rounded corners are reminiscent of appearance iPhone smartphone.

The Z11 Max has rounded edges along the entire length of the body and is very comfortable to hold in your hands. Even despite its large size, it is comfortable to operate with one hand, although it is difficult to reach the far edge. The front uses Gorilla Glass 3 with a 2.5D curve, where there are three capacitive buttons on the bottom, an 8MP camera on the top, and a distance and ambient light sensor. The capacitive Home button can light up when notifications arrive or stay lit.

At the back there is a 13 megapixel camera with dual LED flash, a fingerprint scanner and Nubia inscription. There is a 3.5 mm headphone jack, USB connector type C at the bottom. At the bottom there are speakers hidden by a grille. Overall the device looks great and the build quality is also excellent.

Screen

The device's screen doesn't disappoint either - the AMOLED panel offers rich colors from edge to edge. The resolution of the 6-inch screen is 1920 x 1080, pixel density 368 ppi. This is a high-end screen, but those who prefer more natural colors may be disappointed with the color reproduction, since it is somewhat oversaturated with AMOLED.

In everyday use, viewing angles are wide, as is visibility in open spaces. Even under the rays of the sun, the contents of the screen are clearly visible and the colors do not appear washed out, as on most LCD displays. Nubia has a number of additional settings to adjust color rendering and color temperature. The standard configuration is closer to the warm spectrum, but those who prefer bright white can use the calibration settings to select the desired level.

Audio and call quality

The Nubia's speaker is located at the bottom and can be covered by hand when the device is held in landscape mode. This is the only sound issue this device has. The volume and sound quality when talking on the phone are at a good level, the microphone also copes with its task.

Using headphones, the user receives clear sound and volume greater than that of the recently released model. The Z11 Max has a Dolby Digital Plus setting that changes the output according to preset profiles such as music, movies, games or voice. You can also change options manually using the equalizer, volume and dialogue enhancer. This feature works well when watching videos and listening to music.

The Z11 Max has a built-in flash memory of 64 GB and a slot for a microSD memory card, which, coupled with sound quality, makes it suitable for lovers of multimedia content on mobile devices Oh.

Camera

The Standard Edition of the Nubia Z11 Max smartphone has a rear camera with a resolution of 13 megapixels and an aperture of f/2.0, a front camera of 8 megapixels and an aperture of f/2.4, and viewing angles of the lenses are equal to 80 degrees. Both cameras do a good job of capturing images in automatic mode and have good shutter speeds for a camera in their price range.

Nubia has added quite a few software tricks to the camera app, including a slow-motion video mode. The photos you take look great on the AMOLED screen, but the picture looks different on other displays, which is a bit disappointing.

The quality of photos from the rear camera is most often not satisfactory; they are clear, bright and saturated. Low-light images are a mixed bag, depending on your luck, but the level of detail drops off. Sometimes there is a lot of noise in the photos, sometimes the quality is not bad for publishing on Instagram or other social networks.

The 8 MP front camera produces blurrier images. While it performs well in low light and retains most colors, it could use a little more clarity.

The video quality from the rear camera in day and night scenes is at a high level. Recorded audio is slightly muffled, which is normal for this price.

Video recording while driving doesn't disappoint and the shaking isn't as bad as you might expect. The video quality can ultimately be considered acceptable.

In general, the cameras can be called good, although the front one lacks clarity.

Software

This is the section where the Z11 Max starts to lose its appeal. The smartphone runs on Android system 5.1.1 Lollipop is two years old, although the device was presented several months ago. It has the latest Android security updates, but that's about it. At the same time, the regular Z11 comes out in . Nubia doesn't promise to update the Z11 Max, so you can't count on a more modern Android.

Nubia has placed its own skin on top of the system called Nubia UI 4.0.0, which is reminiscent of MIUI from , only not half as good. Her style is inconsistent across different sections of the system, and she lacks a sense of completion. Developers have a lot to work on in the future when improving the shell if Nubia is going to conquer the international market.

Since the model under review was imported from China, the device did not support English (not to mention Russian). The system displayed quite a few error messages and interface tips in Chinese that were completely incomprehensible. Information about system updates was also displayed in Chinese.

In addition to the language, the downside is the pre-installed applications (bloatware) such as the browser and search application, which periodically sent notifications. In general, the shell and application interface from Nubia do not offer the same high level of sophistication as that of MIUI. When the device is sold in other countries, local applications will most likely be used.

Despite the problematic shell, if you wish, you can find another third-party firmware and switch to it. Otherwise, the system works stably and quickly, although external shortcomings do not allow us to be satisfied with its capabilities.

Performance Nubia Z11 Max

Nubia Z11 Max is sold in two versions:

1.8 GHz MediaTek Helio P10 octa-core processor and 3 GB RAM (Standard Edition)
1.8 GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor and 4 GB RAM

This review focuses on the Standard Edition. The processor is enough to work simultaneously with several applications and for games. 3 GB of memory is enough to not close applications in the background and so that they do not slow down the device.

The device turned out to be responsive in any operating mode; there is no need to complain about the speed of movement through the interface. Applications used included Office, OneDrive, Twitter, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Slack, Clash of Clans, Clash Royale and Facebook Messenger.

Gaming performance was tested using Asphalt 8: Airborne and Dead Trigger 2. High frame rates ensured smooth performance, although loading times could have been better. Applications and games did not crash or freeze, which is also facilitated by a sufficient amount of RAM.

IN real application Performance didn't disappoint either. When working with the dialer, contacts, messenger and calendar, there were no complaints about speed and responsiveness. If the beauty of the user interface does not matter to you, performance ensures a convenient experience.

Battery

The thin body of the Nubia Z11 Max is deceptive, as it fits a 4000 mAh battery into a 7.4 mm thick device and a relatively light weight. This value is enough for a full day of device operation between charges with moderate use and up to 20 hours with high load.

Nubia has added a number of optimizations that save battery when the device is not in use, but the downside to this is often the lack of notifications. Even with such saving options disabled, the operating time is quite good.

The smartphone charges quite quickly, although the version with MediaTek does not mention support for fast charging technologies. Charging from 0 to 100% takes approximately 45 minutes. If you use the included charger, this will take about an hour and a half.

Conclusion

Nubia Z11 Max tries to be a premium device with good components, camera, battery and build quality. However, in terms of price-quality ratio, it is not as attractive a purchase as the Xiaomi Mi Max; it is also inferior in software. To be in demand in the international market, the manufacturer must work on the system and attract the attention of users with high-quality functionality. For starters, it would be a good idea to upgrade to at least the Marshmallow version.

The Xiaomi Mi Max will be the main competitor to the Z11 Max and already offers the latest version of Android, a cohesive user interface and a lower price of around $245. What's better about the Z11 Max is the rear camera, AMOLED screen and design.

Those who want a large screen for watching videos and reading will prefer the 6-inch AMOLED, but the Mi Max also has many advantages. The Z11 Max Snapdragon 652 version looks better in comparison with the Mi Max, but is $100 more expensive than the MediaTek version.

If the price were lower or there were minimal options for customizing the interface, the device would be more attractive. With Honor Note 8 and Lenovo Phab 2 Pro coming out soon with greater functionality, we can expect a reduction in the cost of the Z11 Max. In the meantime, the device feels like a waste of good components, unless you install different firmware yourself. On English language There are not many of them, especially in Russian.

Literally in May, affordable new products were presented from a well-known manufacturer of modern mobile gadgets on the Asian market - ZTE. We are talking about smartphones such as ZTE nubia Z11 and ZTE nubia Z11 mini, which has already been announced. Traditionally, many manufacturers do not limit themselves to a smaller version of the basic device, so already in June an enlarged version was presented - ZTE nubia Z11 Max, which received a six-inch screen and will be available after the base 5.5-inch Z11.

Phablet design

If you look at the wide-inch gadget, it’s not difficult to trace the iPhone-like trend that almost all the world’s manufacturers have adopted. And I must say that this is pleasing: after all, we have before us a beautiful gadget in a stylish metal frame. The AMOLED display has a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels, while it occupies 75 percent of the front panel area. The front panel itself is protected by durable third-generation Gorilla glass. Looking at the front panel, it is striking home button, which is highlighted with a red circle, creating a sharp contrast against a silver, gray or gold background.

At the back, the same red frame highlights the camera lens, just below which you can see a dual-tone flash and a fingerprint sensor that unlocks the device with a fingerprint. The edges are rounded; on the lower part, on the sides of the charging socket, you can see the speaker holes. Design ZTE Nubia Z11 Max– not new, although it differs in certain features that give the device a certain authenticity. In addition, the device has a rather thin body (7.4 mm), while it houses a capacious battery.

Tablet filling

Considering that the smartphone received a Snapedragon 652 series and advanced Adreno 510 graphics, the user gets a very fast phablet. The memory performance is also encouraging: permanent storage – 64 gigabytes, RAM – 4. Another plus is the expansion slot for microSD cards, however, it is available if you sacrifice the second SIM card. As already noted, the device received a decent battery with a capacity of 4000 mAh. At the same time, the fast charging function is supported and the device can reach 83 percent in just half an hour. The camera is also pleasing: pictures are taken with a sixteen-megapixel module protected by sapphire glass. The smartphone has many competitors.

Smartphone with a large 6-inch screen and a metal body. Despite the fact that the ZTE nubia Z11 Max has an advanced hardware, even at the start of sales in China, it has a reasonable price tag: only about $305. Smartphones with this big screen a rarity, and there is also an excellent balance of price and characteristics. About all its significant features below, point by point.

Large screen 6" Full HD

A resolution of 1920x1080 pixels will not surprise anyone now; this is becoming the norm for middle-class smartphones with a five-inch screen. But it is quite enough for a clear image at six inches. Traditionally for nubia, a high-quality matrix with rich colors and excellent viewing angles is used here. This is Super AMOLED. It is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3 (2.5D). The thickness of the side frames is only 1.32 mm.

For convenient work with a large smartphone, the screen can be divided into two working parts, in which you can run different applications.

Performance

ZTE nubia Z11 Max was equipped with 4 gigabytes of RAM and the latest, at the time of release, Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor with 8 powerful cores: 4 Cortex-A72 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz and 4 Cortex-A53 1.4 GHz cores. Graphics accelerator Adreno 510 operates at a clock frequency of 550 MHz. With such filling, any games will be strong.

There will be enough space for user files and hallway installation: 64 GB.

Camera Sony IMX298

The main camera uses the latest 16-megapixel Sony IMX298 module with six lenses. Aperture: F/2.2. The lens is protected from scratches by sapphire crystal. Software cameras: NeoVision 5.9.

The wide-angle 80-degree front camera has a resolution of 8 MP.

High quality sound

nubia smartphones are famous not only for their high-quality screens, but also for their excellent sound when using appropriate headphones. In ZTE nubia Z11 Max, the Qualcomm WCD9335 decoder is responsible for 7.1-channel sound.

Fingerprint scanner

The fingerprint scanner is located on the back side. Using it, you can not only block your smartphone, but also secure payments and use it as a button for various smartphone functions.

USB Type-C

At the bottom end there is a USB Type-C connector, which replaced MicroUSB. It enhances connectivity external devices, as well as increase the data transfer speed over the cable. The connector itself has such a shape and arrangement of contacts that it can be connected to either end of the cable, and it does not matter where the bottom is and where the top is.

Battery

The lithium-ion battery has a capacity of 4000 mAh. Thanks to Quick Charge 3.0 technology, it won't take much time to charge.

Dual SIM

You can install two Nano SIM cards, or one SIM card and a memory card up to 200 GB, since there is only one tray, a combined one. 3G and 4G will work in Russia.
