Samsung and Huawei have already launched their first 5G smartphone this year and brands such as OnePlus and Xiaomi have also confirmed the launch of their 5G smartphones this year. Another Chinese giant, Nubia, the sub-brand of ZTE has unveiled its first 5G phone Nubia X 5G, which is basically a new variant of the Nubia X. To recall, the company has announced the launch of its first 5G-enabled smartphone during the Shanghai Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019 in China.
