ZTE‘s Nubia sub-brand is officially arriving in the country with their newest offering, the Nubia M2 Lite. Given the aggressive price at only P5,899 in robust specifications, this might be a solid smartphone in a sub-P6,000 price. The only major downside is that they’re still using the two-and-a-half-year-old Android 6.0 “Marshmallow”, with the company’s own Nubia 4.0 UI on top.
