The Nubia NaviX Ultra is officially launched, starting at 5,499 yuan, equipped with the Doubao assistant, defining four core capabilities of an AI agent phone.
On September 16, 2026, the Nubia NaviX Ultra, equipped with the consumer version of the Doubao Phone Assistant, was officially launched, marking the transition of AI agent phones from engineering prototypes to large-scale mass production and commercial deployment. The Nubia NaviX Ultra is the first to define four core capabilities—"understands, gets things done, remembers, and is secure enough"—establishing clear capability dimensions for this entirely new category.
From "AI feature stacking" to "native intelligence agent," a brand-new track for AI agent phones has officially opened.
Mass Production Landing: Four Core Capabilities Fully Delivered, From "Humans Operating Phones" to "AI Handling Things for You"
The Nubia NaviX Ultra delivers on the four core capabilities—"understands, gets things done, remembers, and is secure enough"—bringing users a real experience where "with one sentence, Nubia handles it all."
Understands: The Nubia NaviX Ultra features the industry's only fingerprint AI button, supporting one-touch wake-up for both speed and security. In real-time call mode, it also integrates the latest Seed full-duplex voice large model, supporting interruption at any time and continuous conversation, breaking free from the mechanical question-and-answer interaction pattern. Whether in a noisy environment, or facing dialects, accents, or multi-person conversation scenarios, it can accurately recognize user commands.
It currently supports more than ten dialects including Hokkien, Hakka, Shanghainese, and Cantonese, as well as multilingual interaction such as English. Based on a multimodal large model, the Nubia NaviX Ultra also supports on-screen Q&A, and can understand real-time visual content through video calls—it can not only recognize user voice, but also understand visual information.
Gets things done: No cumbersome clicking needed—a single command triggers a task. For example, the Nubia NaviX Ultra can quickly complete operations such as sending Feishu messages on the user's behalf and scheduling meetings according to user commands, and can also连贯完成 a series of complex operations such as summarizing group messages, checking to-dos, and forwarding documents; new commands can be inserted at any time during the process, and tasks can continue to execute even when the screen is locked.
In addition, the product has expanded third-party service ecosystems such as travel, music, and maps, and continues to improve callable interfaces. In office scenarios, a new work task mode has been added, supporting one-sentence generation of code, documents, spreadsheets, and PPTs; the recording summary feature introduces Feishu Miaojie capabilities, with performance comparable to standalone recording hardware.
Relying on powerful model capabilities, the NaviX Ultra can deeply reason, break down complex commands, autonomously plan execution steps, and achieve long-chain operations of hundreds of steps lasting tens of minutes. With shortcut commands and automatic commands, it can also automatically trigger preset tasks based on conditions such as time and location, simplifying daily operations.
Remembers: With user authorization, the Nubia NaviX Ultra can remember preferences and habits actively shared by users, building an exclusive personal memory bank. Users can manually save the current screen content through the voice command "remember this"
or the "three-finger swipe up" gesture—store once, retrieve anytime.
With user authorization enabled, it also supports querying local information through natural language to quickly locate the needed content. The more you use it, the better it understands you; the more you use it, the more worry-free it becomes, making life simpler.
Secure enough: The Nubia NaviX Ultra is equipped with an industry-leading lock screen security strategy. This AI button with fingerprint authentication is also the first line of defense for security capabilities, balancing convenience and security. At the same time, all agent operations are executed compliantly within user authorization and the system security framework, strictly adhering to third-party privacy and security management system certification requirements and complying with international standards.
Industry Benchmarking: Four Core Capability Dimensions of AI Agent Phones, Building a Solid Foundation for the Development of the AI Agent Phone Industry
As a pioneer in the AI agent phone field, Nubia believes: the four capabilities—understands, gets things done, remembers, and is secure enough—correspond to the four major capability dimensions of AI agent phones: response, execution, memory, and security.
Response means users do not need to deliberately accommodate phrasing; the phone can understand them when they express themselves in the most natural way. Execution means the phone not only provides answers, but also helps users get things done. Memory means users do not need to explain repeatedly; with user authorization, the phone can understand user preferences.
Security means all capabilities are built on complete privacy protection, ensuring users can use them with peace of mind.
At the launch event, Ni Fei, President of ZTE Terminal Business Unit and President of Nubia, reviewed the brand's technological accumulation in the AI field: "From the first AI phone Nubia Z17 in 2017, to the AI-native phone Nubia M153, and now to the mass production launch of the Nubia NaviX Ultra, feedback from the market and users has convinced us that the direction of AI agent phones is right.
Nubia will continue to advance diverse cooperation with an open attitude, and together with more fellow travelers, broaden this path."
Hardware Foundation: Top-Tier Software and Hardware Collaboration Supporting All-Weather Stable Operation of the Agent
A native AI experience requires sufficient computing power as its foundation. The Nubia NaviX Ultra is equipped with the fifth-generation Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform. For storage, it uses LPDDR5X products from ChangXin, Samsung, and others with maximum speeds up to 10667Mbps, providing abundant computing power for multi-task parallel scheduling and cross-application linkage.
In terms of battery life, the new phone is equipped with a 7100mAh fifth-generation Nanhai large battery, with an energy density of 902 Wh/L, ensuring AI services are online around the clock, and supports 90W wired fast charging and 50W wireless charging.
For the display, the NaviX Ultra features a 6.78-inch ultra-narrow quad-curved equal-edge screen supplied by BOE, with bezels of only 1.09mm, supporting a 1-144Hz adaptive refresh rate, and equipped with a dual eye-protection solution of 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming and full-brightness DC dimming. For imaging, the flagship triple-camera combination of a 200-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera lowers the threshold for photography with AI empowerment, allowing everyone to easily take good photos.
Starting today, the Nubia NaviX Ultra will be officially on sale through major channels including ZTE Mall, JD.com, Tmall, Douyin, and Pinduoduo. The 12GB+512GB version is priced at 5,999 yuan, and 5,499 yuan after stacking the national subsidy; the 16GB+512GB version is 6,499 yuan, and the 16GB+1TB version is 7,499 yuan. For orders placed and paid within 7 days of the first sale, users can enjoy up to 24 interest-free installments.
From AI technological breakthroughs to defining the capability dimensions of a new AI terminal category, Nubia will continue to build the brand mindset of "AI Phone Pioneer," deeply integrating AI technology with hardware, software, and ecosystems, working hand in hand with the industry chain in an open manner, continuously driving the iterative upgrade of AI agent phones, making AI agent phones a truly worry-free intelligent companion by everyone's side, and making life simpler.
