Folding smartphones have, until recently, been reserved as flagship models with high price tags, so the nubia Flip 5G is here to help break the mold and provide consumers with a decidedly more accessible option. The smartphone was unveiled by the brand at MWC 2024 and boasts a 6.9-inch folding OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate that's complemented by a circular 1.43-inch display on the rear. The smartphone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor along with a 4,310mAh battery that offers support for 33W charging speeds.
The nubia Flip 5G smartphone is priced starting at $599 and will come in black and gold finish options when it's formally launched. The smartphone has a dual-rail suspended hinge that's rated to withstand more than 200,000 openings and closings.
