Summary
At WAIC 2026 in Shanghai, Nubia launched the NaviX Ultra and said the phone won a SAIL Award for its AI advances.
Powered by ByteDance's Doubao Phone Assistant, the device uses an AI-agent architecture that combines language understanding, visual recognition and task planning to carry out multi-step requests across apps.
In one example, a business-trip prompt can pull travel information, organize documents and set reminders without manual app switching; Nubia said internal tests showed 42% fewer errors than conventional AI smartphones.
The July 17-20 conference has put AI applications at center stage, reflecting a broader smartphone industry push beyond voice assistants and image tools toward systems that act on user intent.
