Meizu’s upcoming flagship smartphone, the MX5, is expected to be unveiled sometime in August of this year and today two new design renders of what looks like the new device have been leaked online.The people who leaked these new images claim that the device featured in them is indeed the Meizu MX5 but, looking at the images, there are clear differences with the device’s design when compared to older released renders of the MX5.First off, the latest leaked renders show a borderless screen design which was not found on previous renders. Secondly, the home button on the device in the new renders is a lot thinner and similar to the one found on the Samsung Galaxy S6. Previously released renders have shown a rounder and taller home button.The differences in these new renders make us doubt if they really feature the Meizu MX5 but if they are legitimate then a […]

Just yesterday we came across two possible models of the upcoming Meizu MX5 flagship. The models namely M575M and M575U were both listed on TENAA with some specs details. Now, both the devices has received the Nation 3C Certification.This certification also reveals that the Meizu MX5 will support high-voltage fast charging technology. One of the documents show that both the models, M575M and M575U will support fast charging. However, if this is true, then we wonder if the chipset inside is really Helio X10. The listing didn’t specify the name of the chip, but only mentioned that the phone will be powered by an octa-core 2.3GHz chipset. With support for fast charging, it could also be a different Mediatek processor.Of course, we still haven’t confirmed that these two models are Meizu MX5, but given their specs and the timing of certification, it should logically be the next Meizu flagship device.Yesterday’s […]

If you have been following our site, we had reported a couple of days back that Meizu was planning to announce something big at the end of the month i.e. on June 30. However, the company did not reveal what it was going to launch at the event.Earlier today, Meizu released a new teaser on Weibo with the tag line “Born to Kill”. Now this doesn’t directly reveal the identity of the handset, but it shows that the launch may be of a significant device. And we think its most likely going to be the Meizu MX5 flagship. So, earlier rumors about the Meizu M2 launching at the event could be false.We can also see the number 630 etched on top of the helmet along with the words full metal jacket. Logically, this doesn’t make much sense, but if we had to find a link, it could be related to […]

JD had officially confirmed the launch of the much talked about Meizu Blue Charm Note 2 aka Meizu M1 Note 2 in China on June 2. It looks like the phone has been listed on the e-commerce site today for a price tag of 1299 Yuan.Yes, contrary to earlier rumors which said that the phone will most likely retain the same 999 Yuan price tag as the Meizu M1 Note, it looks like this phone will be priced 300 Yuan more. While JD.com is already accepting registrations for the said device, the phone will start selling only from June 18. The product page for the Blue Charm Note 2 adds that the final price may change after the official announcement on June 2. So we are not yet sure whether the company is launching the device for 1299 Yuan.Unfortunately, we are still not sure about the specs of the device.  Geekbench listing has revealed […]

Meizu announced the M2 Note earlier this week. The device comes with a number of upgrades, including a MicroSD card slot, physical home button and a slightly slimmer body. Although the company retained the same 13MP rear camera on the device, the ISP has been improved to deliver faster focus speeds and better performance.Earlier today, Meizu released a few camera samples from the Meizu M2 Note and they look quite good for a 799 Yuan smartphone. You can see the samples from both the front and the rear camera. The front camera produced very good selfies, which were clear and bright. The same goes with the 13MP rear shooter which managed to click impressive shots. The picture of the sushi that you can see below came out quite well. There is no visible noise, color reproduction is good and image is clear.As for the night time shot, even that came […]

The much awaited phone of the month is finally official! Meizu has unveiled the Meizu M2 Note, which brings a lot of much needed upgrade to the existing Meizu M1 Note edition. Its hardly been six months since we saw the first model in the company’s Blue Charm series and within this short span, this will mark the third launch in the lineup.The Meizu M2 Note continues with the same unibody design as the existing version, but is now slightly thinner (by 0.2mm) and comes with a beautiful grey matte finish that we saw in the leaked pictures. The weight is slightly increased to 149 grams, but that’s should make much difference.The biggest change in the design is the new physical home button, just below the display. Its the same oval shaped button that we saw in the leaked images a few days back. The company adds that you can tap […]

We have already heard from the company itself that Meizu will launch a new device on June 30th. The Chinese smartphone maker has released a few teasers, which include a “Full Metal Jacket” moniker. This clearly implies that the upcoming device, which will most likely be a MX5, will be made out of metal.This time around we have some fresh leaked photos, which show the device’s metal shell. It confirms the possibility that the Meizu MX5 will be made out of metal, which should give the premium look and feel as well as extra sturdiness.What is more, we can clearly see that there is a huge cutout for an oval shaped home button. This implies the fact that the MX5 will boast a fingerprint scanner, which has become a trend among Chinese smartphone manufacturers.Moreover, the rumours suggest that the Meizu MX5 will spot some decent specs. It starts will a 5.5-inch […]

The Meizu M1 Note was originally launched sometime in December of last year and half a year later the company has already announced its successor, the M2 Note. But is Meizu’s newcomer really an upgrade over its predecessor? We check out and compare the specs of both devices to see what Meizu has brought with the new M2 Note.DisplayBoth the M1 Note and M2 Note feature the same display, a 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and a pixel density of 401ppi, so there’s not much to compare between the two devices in this area.CameraMeizu has also decided to equip the M2 Note with the same set of cameras as the ones found on the M1 Note namely a 13-megapixel f/2.2 rear camera with dual LED flash and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera so again there’s not much to compare in this department.Processor & RAMThe […]
