The UMIDIGI Z2 series has been promoted in several stages this year alone. After unveiling it as a new product in 2018, the brand went ahead and added a new color. The Shenzhen-based company announced the official pre-sale on Gearbest. Gearbest, an e-commerce destination for online deals, will sell the UMIDIGI Z2 at a discount. Initially, the phone was announced with an asking price of $299.99. For this campaign pre-sale, the device is now priced at $249.99.
According to UMIDIGI, the Z2 global presale will be for a limited time. The pre-sale started on June 11 and will end on June 18.
According to an analysis by GizChina, the brand added to the lineup a Twilight Black color. In addition, this color has been a popular choice for smartphones like the iPhone X and Huawei P20.
Performance of the Z2 series for the brand
As reported in a post by GizChina, the presale of the Z2 device is a milestone for the company. Furthermore, UMIDIGI reports it is the device that has the best capabilities from its entire product line. The Z2 models have been compared with the Xiaomi 8 phone.
