Much like many Chinese smartphone brands these days, [ZTE](http://engadget.com/tag/ZTE) sub-brand [Nubia](http://engadget.com/tag/nubia) had prematurely given away the main selling points of its [Z5](http://engadget.com/tag/nubiaz5) ahead of its Beijing launch today, but there were still some surprises. As you probably already know, here's yet another five-inch 1080p Android phone featuring Qualcomm's 1.5GHz quad-core [APQ8064](http://engadget.com/tag/apq8064), 2GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage, along with a 13-megapixel F2.2 main camera (with five-element optics by Konica Minolta, plus separate touch focus and touch exposure in the app) and a two-megapixel front-facing camera. For multimedia consumption, the Z5 supports WiFi Display and MHL output should you wish to beam content to a larger screen; whereas on the audio side you are spoiled with either Yamaha or Dolby Digital Plus. But wait, there's more!
