A phone barely 6mm thick usually means compromises, and nubia is trying to dodge them with the Air Pro 5G, which it has now launched in Pakistan for Rs. 109,999. The body measures 5.99mm and weighs roughly 172g.
That price puts it between the two phones of the Neo 5 range that nubia brought to Pakistan earlier this month, which started at Rs. 99,999. Only the 8GB and 256GB version has a Pakistani price. Pakistani retailers list the same figure, while nubia’s Pakistan product page mentions a 512GB option without one.
Toughness is the pitch. The Air Pro has IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings and an aluminium frame, and comes in Aero White or Prime Black. Swimming in the sea is a different matter. Per the product page, underwater shots are meant for fresh water, down to a metre and for half an hour, and the warranty excludes salt-water damage.
Inside is a MediaTek Dimensity 7100 5G chip. The display is a 6.77-inch AMOLED running at 144Hz, rated for 4,500 nits at its brightest, and storage is UFS 2.2.
The cameras are a 108MP main sensor and a 32MP selfie lens. nubia also puts a Sports Mode shortcut on the phone, which brings up workout information, along with AI tools.
Power comes from a 5,000mAh silicon-carbon battery. It charges at 45W, and can pass power to other devices at 10W or run the phone directly from the charger without charging the battery. Thickness, weight and brightness are figures nubia tested itself, so treat them as brand claims.
