Zuk Z2 Leaked Images Tip Inclusion of Rotating Camera

Earlier this month Zuk CEO confirmed that Zuk Z2 smartphone would be arriving next year. He did not reveal anything about the handset but did confirm the inclusion of Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC under-the-hood. However, now a bunch of images claiming to show the Zuk Z2 has surfaced on the Web showing a rather different design when compared to the Zuk Z1.

The images shared by My Drivers website show that the topmost part (edge-to-edge) of the smartphone can be rotated, meaning the smartphone would only feature a single camera that will be used as both rear camera and the front-facing camera. The render images however fail to reveal any of the specifications of the Zuk Z2. However, they do suggest a 2.5D glass display and a metal frame.

Zuk CEO earlier this month also said that the Zuk Z1 users would be receiving a new ZUI version based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, sometime in March next year. The version's closed beta is expected to reach by the end of next month.

Last month, the Zuk Z1 smartphone reached international markets with Cyanogen OS 12.1, as promised in August. The smartphone in China was launched with the firm's own ZUI skin running atop Android 5.1.1 Lollipop out-of-the-box.

To recall, the Zuk Z1 features a 5.5-inch full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) display; Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.5GHz; 3GB RAM; Adreno 330 GPU; 64GB of inbuilt storage; 13-megapixel rear camera; 8-megapixel front-facing camera, and 4100mAh battery. The home button on the dual-SIM supporting Z1 smartphone also embeds the fingerprint scanner. USB Type-C support is also included.
