ZTE has announced the availability of the nubia Neo 2 5G in the Philippines. The successor to the nubia Neo budget gaming smartphone, the second iteration is armed with an upgraded gaming control experience for Filipino gamers to enjoy.

The nubia Neo 2 5G retains the distinct Bionic Mecha with “Hero Eye” design from its predecessor. It is available in Storm Gray, Sunfire Yellow, and Frost Silver for PhP 9,999.

The phone is powered by a Unisoc T820 processor (6nm). It supports even more Dynamic RAM at 12GB to complement its 8GB base RAM, and also offers 5G dual-card intelligent switching. Additionally, the nubia Neo 2 5G carries an even larger 6,000mAh battery, which supports 33W fast charging.

In front, the device sports a 6.72-inch FHD+ display with a 2,400 x 1,800 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate for seamless viewing and scrolling. At the back is a 50MP main camera.

Upgraded Game Space

The nubia Neo 2 5G features Game Space 2.0, an assistance tool that is reminiscent of a professional gaming layout. Here, users may tinker with game optimization functions, including Game Performance Enhancement. This adjusts the device’s CPU and GPU resources to help it manage power and battery usage.

The phone also supports ByPass Charging for uninterrupted gaming. Users may activate this charging feature while the charging cable is connected to the device. When under ByPass Charging, the phone gets powered up but without the battery charging so it can reduce heat.

Upgraded experience

Furthermore, one of the highlights of the nubia Neo 2 5G is its gaming shoulder triggers. This gives users more freedom and control while navigating and playing. Users may also customize the shoulder buttons based on their personal preferences.

Meanwhile, the phone’s Dual Stereo Speakers with DTS:X Ultra provide impressive sound quality. This is further enhanced with four built-in sound effects.

The HONOR Magic6 Pro is coming to the Philippines. Although the official pricing hasn’t been announced yet, one of HONOR’s latest flagships may be preordered soon via HONOR’s Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop stores.

The HONOR Magic6 Pro is easily one of the best smartphones in the market today. It is multi-awarded with five DXOMARK Gold Labels for Camera, Battery, Display, Selfie, and Audio. Likewise, the device maintains its top position in the Global Ranking of DXOMARK Best Camera Phones worldwide.

The phone’s camera prowess has been well-chronicled in the past few months. GadgetMatch took it to a basketball open practice, highlighting its fast shutter, light absorption, image stabilization, and AI motion sensing algorithm.

For a quick refresher, the Magic6 Pro sports the following cameras:

• 180MP 1/1.49-inch f/2.6 OIS Periscope telephoto camera
• 50MP 1/1.3-inch HDR f/1.4 to f/2.0 OIS wide-angle camera
• 50MP f/2.0 AF ultra-wide angle camera

In a nutshell, the phone’s telephoto camera has a larger sensor, allowing 400% better light intake. It also lets users shoot up to 10x zoom without much detail loss. Meanwhile, its main camera allows users to switch between f/1.4 and f/2.0 apertures on the fly, with the system’s Ultra-large Variable Aperture. HONOR then utilizes both hardware and software to deliver on impressive camera performance.
