New Chapter. New Gear. Back to School Is Live.

A season doesn't announce itself all at once. It shows up in pieces — a calendar filling back in, an inbox that stopped being quiet, a phone battery that suddenly can't make it past 6pm anymore. Somewhere between the last long weekend and the first real Monday, the gear you've been getting by on for months starts to feel like it's working against you. From August 12 to August 27, nubia's Back to School sale puts up to $160 back in your pocket across the lineup, with a free nubia Rock Speaker riding along on select devices. Shop now, while the window's still open.

A Camera That Doesn't Ask You to Wait for Better Light

Z80 Ultra is built for the days that don't pause for good lighting — a packed campus courtyard at dusk, a game that's still going after the sun's down, the group chat that wants proof you were actually there. Dual main cameras and flagship-grade performance mean you're not the person still fumbling with settings while the moment passes, and the battery is built to outlast the day around it, not just the morning. That's the case for buying it now instead of later: up to $30 off, plus a free nubia Rock Speaker and a protective case bundled straight into the order. It's a small thing, but not having to shop for a case separately is one less errand in a season already full of them. Gifts are limited and go first-come, first-served, so the upside fades the longer you wait.

Built to Outlast the Study Session

Pad Pro is the device for the parts of the season that don't photograph well — the three-hour lecture, the meeting that runs long, the night you're juggling a deadline and a group project at the same time. A 10,100mAh battery and an eye-care display are built for exactly that kind of stretch, and the AI voice enhancement is there for the calls where the room around you isn't cooperating. The trade-off with a tablet is always the same: it's not trying to be your phone, and if you need something pocketable first, this isn't it. But for the multitasking-heavy stretch of a new semester or a return-to-office push, it earns its space. Right now that's up to $90 off, with a free nubia Rock Speaker and protective case included, on the same first-come, first-served terms as the rest of the sale.

More Ways In, Same Season

Z80 Ultra and Pad Pro are the headline pieces, but they're not the only way into this sale. Z70 Ultra carries the steepest discount of the whole lineup — up to $160 off. Z70S Ultra is up to $30 off with a power adapter bundled in. Neither of those two comes with the Rock Speaker; that one's reserved for Z80 Ultra and Pad Pro. It's a fair trade if you're mainly here for the biggest number on the page rather than the extra gear — you're still walking away with real savings, just a different shape of deal.

One Speaker, Two Ways to Get It

The nubia Rock Speaker isn't a separate giveaway you have to enter or track down. Order a Z80 Ultra or a Pad Pro during the sale and it ships with the order, no extra step required. That's the idea behind New Chapter. New Gear. in the first place — one purchase that actually sets you up, instead of a discount that leaves you shopping for accessories afterward.

This Window Closes When the Semester Starts

New routines have a way of hardening fast. Whatever gear gets you through the first week back is usually the gear you're stuck with until the next sale rolls around — which is exactly why the middle of August, before the schedule locks in, is the moment to make the swap instead of after. The nubia Back to School sale runs through August 27. Shop now before it closes.

Fine print: Offers valid August 12–27 on the official nubia website, applicable to selected models. nubia Rock Speaker ships free with qualifying Z80 Ultra or Pad Pro orders; additional gifts (protective case, charger, phone case, or power adapter) vary by device and region and are limited, first-come, first-served. Discounts cannot be exchanged for cash or combined with other ongoing promotions unless otherwise stated. nubia reserves the right to adjust the promotion based on stock availability; orders placed before any change will be honored as originally placed.
