The Nubia Flip 3 is shaping up to be a significant refresh over last year’s Flip 2, and the latest leaked renders suggest that ZTE’s sub-brand is preparing a stronger contender in the clamshell foldable segment. A fresh design leak shared by tipster Evan Blass (@evleaks) gives the most detailed look yet at the upcoming device, revealing a sleeker aesthetic, a larger external display, and subtle but meaningful hardware refinements.
Bigger, Nearly Edge-to-Edge Cover Display
One of the most noticeable upgrades is the expanded outer screen, which now stretches almost edge-to-edge. This larger cover display is likely to improve quick interactions, notifications, and camera previews, bringing the Flip 3 closer to the usability seen on Motorola’s Razr series and Samsung’s Z Flip lineup.
Dual Cameras + Accessory Support
The renders show a dual rear camera setup, placed cleanly above the outer screen. While camera specs haven’t surfaced yet, the layout suggests a continued focus on portrait photography and high-quality selfies using the main sensors. Notably, the rear side also includes pogo pins, hinting at modular accessories – possibly cases, add-on grips, or magnetic stands.
Colour Options
The Nubia Flip 3 appears in two colours: Black and White. Both finishes look premium, matching the minimalist design language now common in modern foldables.
Sleek Vertical Fold
The handset retains a vertical clamshell folding design, ideal for users who prefer compact form factors. When folded, it promises a pocket-friendly profile; when opened, expect a tall interior display and a cleaner hinge mechanism (though not explicitly shown).
