EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test review as the star indicates. There is every reason to expect: a >30hr battery endurance and sub-1hr charging, more than 1300nits of screen brightness and excellent camera & selfie performance) The Find X8s and it's bigger version (a 74.5mm wide) X8s+ are China-only models. Both are flagship grade, sitting just below Find X8 Ultra and Find X8 Pro. They offer small (relatively compact) bodies, stellar processor and battery performance, with some compromises on screen, cameras and the USB port performance.
PROs
great built small body, fast Mediatec 9400+ with UFS4.0 performance, >30hr battery endurance from a large 5700mAh Si/C battery with 80W (50W wireless) charging, >1300nits bright 460ppi AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, great triple 50MP camera (all PDAF, main and tele with OIS), excellent 32MP AF selfie and over 4 years of stabile and feature rich OS
CONs
average video recording quality, no SDmemory, no desktop replacement software, slow USB-C 2.0 port, China only
ZTE Nubia Z80 Ultra

EDITORIAL: Just 6 months after it's predecessor, Z80 Ultra brings better hardware and software making this a very good value camera-phone option. With lots of physical controls, new version of OS and more tweaking of the solid (it not imperfect) camera setup. The beautiful 144Hz notch-less screen has minimal bezels and ultrasonic fingerprint sensor but no LTPO or HDR10+ tech yet. Just like it's predecessor, Z80 Ultra is a great gaming phone too.
PROs
unique and quite likable design, great in-hamd feel for a big phone, good SD 8 Elite Gen 5 with UFS 4.1 performance, excellent >42hr endurance from a 7200mAh Si-C battery with sub-60min 90W charging (80W wireless) and good battery longevity protection options, >1700nits bright >430ppi 144Hz AMOLED screen. IP69 protection, some great shots from a 50MP 35mm OIS PDAF main + 64MP 70mm OIS PDAF periscope telephoto + 50MP 18mm PDAF ultrawide back camera setup, very good video recording, fast USB-C 3.2 port with OTG, additional camera kit
CONs
230g heavy, gets hot, mediocre selfie imaging, no SDmemory slot, short OS update promise, no video out or desktop replacement functionality
