Nubia NaviX Ultra AI-agent smartphone specifications have appeared online before the device's planned reveal at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference 2026, scheduled from July 17 to July 20 in Shanghai. A recent leak indicates the upcoming flagship will pair high-end hardware with an AI-driven software experience, pointing to improvements in performance, battery endurance, screen quality, and imaging capabilities. Nubia has so far only verified the phone's name, styling and AI assistant, yet the new details provide a sharper view of its hardware ahead of the formal launch.

Nubia NaviX Ultra Leak Points to Premium Specifications Before Official Launch

Per a Weibo post from tipster Bald Panda (translated from Chinese), the Nubia NaviX Ultra is slated to include a 6.78-inch flat screen with 1.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The display is expected to feature a centered hole-punch cutout and uniform bezels that could be the narrowest ever on a Nubia device.

The Nubia NaviX Ultra is also projected to run Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor alongside a 7,100mAh battery. If confirmed, this capacity would place it among the largest batteries in flagship phones.

Imaging hardware on the Nubia NaviX Ultra may consist of three 50-megapixel rear sensors, though the source did not name the specific components. The arrangement is expected to support standard, ultra-wide and telephoto shooting, while a 50-megapixel front camera would manage selfies and video calls.

The Nubia NaviX Ultra centers on four AI capabilities: natural language understanding, contextual memory, real-world task handling and data security. The device is said to use a system-level GUI Agent framework that can interpret on-screen content and engage with supported apps via MCP and A2A protocols rather than mimicking touch gestures.

The AI assistant is expected to handle tasks across multiple applications from one voice or text prompt. The tipster further notes that Nubia is readying the phone for commercial release, although the firm has not yet disclosed an exact launch date.
