Folding phones arrived mainly in two forms, while the industry advances more and more folds, see the Huawei mate xt either Samsung’s own that Silhouette appeared during the last Unpacked. However, now that this segment begins to take run, there are few firms that take the opportunity to mid -range: One of these is zte.
Last year we met the ZTE NUBLIA FLIP 5Ga good attempt for less than 600 euros to rival the other firm involved in these mid -range “, Motorola and its Motorola Razr 40. Sinned in certain sections such as the quality of its hinge and a very little useful external screen. His successor is the zte Nubia Flip 2 5G, a phone that I have tried in the MWC and that Confirm a general improvement: It is a great affordable alternative capable of exempting us from emptying our account.

Giving more use to your external screen is the key
As happened with Samsung, Zte has learned from his mistakesand in this new Nubia Flip 2 we already have an external screen that is useful to review notifications, take photos without opening it and of course, to have a sympathetic virtual pet.


This outer panel is not round, it has become rectangular, more in the line of current folding. In fact, Allows you to see a YouTube video as well as open other recurring applications, such as Facebook. Win in versatility with a subtle change that others gave in the past: increase the diagonal in addition to the form. They are 3 inches with AMOLED technology that acts as a complement.
The sensations in hand remain equally good. Built on an aluminum alloy frame and a back of glass, the cloud flip 2 5g It feels premium. Nor could we expect less, because despite being cheaper than usual, it is not a cheap mobile.


Inside, a Chip manufactured by MediaTak is hidden, saying goodbye to Qualcomm that put one of its Snapdragon in the predecessor. It is a Dimensity 7300x Manufactured in the 4NM process of the TAIWANASA TSMC: the change of chip or feel good, or bad, since in performance it is along with the Snadpragon 7 Gen 1 of the first cloudy Flip.


The unit I have tried to mount 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB Internal storage, nothing out of the ordinary, and sufficient for fissure yield: there are no lags in the firm’s interface, which by the way, is accompanied by small touch -ups to make the most of the form factor of this folding. And luckily, in the time I have been using it I have not appreciated excessive warming, one of the most alarming points of the first model.
Necessary cuts to maintain a competitive price


Where most benefit cuts are noticeable in that simple cameras module, because there are no artifice or many sensors here: the Nubia Flip 2 5G Equipa a single usable camera. It is a 50 megapixel sensor that aligns next to a depth sensor (2 MP) and a ring that makes flash.
On its internal screen, the 32 megapixel front chamber is hidden, in a circular cut as has predominates for years on Android. In the absence of evidence, I hope that ZTE has remedied one of his biggest problems, especially in the portrait mode that left a poor bokeh effect due to a bad cut.


On the other hand, it has IPX4 and IPX2 certification, which gives resistance to dust entry. Your software is born outdated: Android 14 Made by mine, the manufacturer’s customization layer. That, yes, this time it is seasoned with some artificial intelligence capabilities such as call transcripts and a personalized voice assistant, as well as Google Gemini.
Assemble a fingerprint reader, which as in the rest of folding, is not under the screen. It is located on the unlock button, something that does not dislike.


The biggest claim of this Nubia Flip 2 5g is not its processor, or its cameras: affects the fateful point of these devicesthe price. And with everything, he goes up to his predecessor: 699 euros in Europe. Obviously we are not facing a bargain, but it is great news in a market that advances little by little and that is mainly directed to the premium segment.
Say that folding comes to democratize are major words For a device that is not cheap. However, it throws a halo of hope, and demonstrates that with certain resignations, it is possible to have a price for mortals. I see increasingly the folding mid -range, who knows if the third generation of these flip gets the final price, I will not lose sight of it.
