But otherwise, the "trend" is already such. If not a shovel means sucks))
Well, we are waiting for a more frameless second display in future Nubia: yes2:

[Iuriius]

Guys, this is the fourth face of the campaign. It just makes you smile. Do not be naive. Nubia will never make such a design because its financial condition today simply does not allow to bear such production risks. If you know a little about business, then everything is as clear as day. And for those who do not understand explain. In order to make any smartphone you need to sign contracts for the supply of components. The presence of two screens is the rise in price of the phone by at least $ 30 by the dirty price of the components, since the panel is worth it in a small volume of order from the factory. It doesn't matter even this IPS or LED price is almost equal. This will give a final increase in the price of the final product of at least $ 50 with the company's margin! This is not a single sensible marketer in the mother ZTE will not miss. The price of the final smartphone is tentatively overpriced. It includes the 845th snap, whose presence in warehouses has not yet been confirmed. Expensive UFS 2.1 memory and RAM. All of this, of course, will be brought to Shenzhen from Taiwan quickly, but the price will be much more expensive than what Xiaomi admits, since the ordered batch will be disproportionately lower, and the margin from Nubia may not be 5%. Nobody will work at a loss. ZTE is not Mother Teresa. Usually, Nubian flagships cost about 3,500 yuan. So that you understand 4000 - this is the price of the new iPhone SE. No one more than 3,500 Nubia will buy from the Chinese, they are not stupid people. On such a competitive field as China, the BBK concern, Huawei and Xiaomi will eat Nubia and will not choke even. Moreover, all the major flagships from these manufacturers have already been released, incl. and on the 845th stone - take it or not. Nubia has long been scratching one place, losing its business acumen due to the "American swing" and other attendant factors. Critical time is missed. In a month and a half, the second wave of Nota type flagships from Samsung will go. Pixels are new, Vanplas with the sixth Teshka are on the way, and there already new iPhones will be pulled out. No one will care about Nubia (in the sense that it is not possible to quickly collect cream-loot from the company).
My personal opinion is that there is an urgent need to change the company's marketing specialists who confidently lead the brand to oblivion this year. 2 years ago, decisions were made quickly and prudently. A fantastic advertising campaign was conducted in Europe. The money was invested in the right individuals and distribution networks. Financial resources were properly distributed and a clear business plan was drawn up. According to him, both flagships and middle peasants came out who were attractive in many respects. Pricing policy was balanced and thought out to the smallest detail. Now it seems that the companies are rushing from side to side and cannot decide in which direction the market is moving. No tactical thinking to introduce new technologies. Pop up different data on different concepts. This proves that a single vision in the department of brand promotion does not exist today. Moreover, international support for gadgets has drastically subsided. On Facebook, under each official Nubian post, Arava of Indians and Europeans simply cries for the need to update existing smartphones in software. Nubia is rapidly losing loyal customers!
I repeat once again - the company created the conditions for a systemic crisis. The company now needs a crisis manager. The Americans after the threat of sanctions forced to completely change the board of directors in the supervisory board of the parent ZTE. It is foolish to separate Nubia and ZTE. Yes, they are different according to the documents, but the assembly capacities are the same. These are deeply affiliated structures whose strategic decisions are made in one cabinet. Apparently, the person who came to a new place in the council and was responsible for this direction did not have enough time in these few months to deal with the objective picture of what is happening. I bet that if the flagship comes out, it will be pass-through or not balanced enough. Waiting for the company's positive financial results for this year is at least not reasonable.

Hi whit background.

[S_lavdos]

Iuriius,And why do you think that the new design and additional screen is not an attempt to get out of the crisis?
Riveting another iPhone clone on 845 is just the right way to dissolve in the crowd. Meanwhile, Nubia had its own design with frameless music line.
Pro update by agree.

[Iuriius]

S_lavdos,
Anyone familiar with anti-crisis measures knows that an audit of what is first is being conducted. This usually happens in a month. After the audit, decisions are made to improve the performance of those assets that are. All unprofitable hard cut off. In this case, it is very likely that they will informally abandon the support of old smart phones and focus only on current models. No devices that beat out their trend this year, the company will not produce. These are additional financial and operational risks for which there is neither the money nor the time.

[S_lavdos]

Iuriius,pro support agree. About cutting off risks too. But I also think that you need PR now. I do not see a big risk in the additional screen.

[Sassho]

Poster nubia in full height- phone to be without a doubt;)

[Iuriius]

Sassho,
Printing products are always done later than the phone itself. Who told you that this is a real poster? I can even better zaphotoshotit you. Look carefully, its size is 2in3, the phone itself is not in the center of the picture. I strongly doubt this information. I trust my sanity more.

[Sassho]

You have to be optimistic, if Nubia doesn’t shoot her a lid
There is no smoke without fire, we hope for the best. The idea of ​​the second display is like.

[Iuriius]

Sassho,
Well, what's the idea? In addition to the foregoing regarding the unreality of the installation of the second display, have you ever seen someone have such a stupid design of two flashes? It's just sur.

[Veassi]

In principle, not against the second display, if it can be turned off for energy saving, or if it is made using OLED technology, like on amazfit smartwatch 2. It perfectly adapts to the lighting and is readable in any light, while it has minimal power consumption.

[Sassho]

Veassi @ 06/29/18, 10:56

or if it is made using OLED technology

Well, of course, OLED as it was in Meizu Pro 7, only if the display in Z18 is really as large as they possibly think
set wallpaper with "translucent interiors"))

[Lovestreet]

Iuriius,
Do not like it, pass by. As for the unreality of the two displays - it is difficult in terms of placement of the battery and increases the cost of assembly. The price of an additional display of this size is about 10 dollars, considering that it is not required in excess of the specifications. Everything.

In the race for the surface area of ​​the screen, this is the most intelligent solution with a 2 screen for a small selfie, but then there is a minus, how do you get on the video call?

Yeah, and then there will be a race to make a frameless second screen

Is there an exit date already?
