Weibo, like any other social media site, has its swarms of hornets occasionally. When it comes to mobile hardware leaks, disbelief can especially be prone to manifesting in awful ways.Take all of the rumors we’ve been compiling about a certain version of the Meizu PRO 6. It now seems that these photo leaks, previously connected to that device, have been implicated in a ...

While waiting for the “Apple of China” to grow as ambitious about its international prospects as domestic arch-rival Huawei, today we get to see the local… Motorola (?) make an official US debut with a… floating speaker.Confused? It’s hard not to be, given Meizu’s phenomenal 2015 box-office growth, recent ...

It’s no longer just industry pioneers like Oculus, Samsung, Google and HTC that are going the extra mile in their efforts to swallow a savory slice of the fast-growing VR hardware pie. Almost all self-respecting smartphone and PC manufacturers have more or less concrete plans of tackling at least one of two early virtual reality segments in the not-so-distant future.We’re talking Apple,

When MediaTek held an event to announce the real arrival of its Helio X20 SoC, it also invited Chinese manufacturer Meizu to spill the news that it had taken first dibs on the Helio X25 for its PRO 6 smartphone. But with a benchmark showing off a PRO 6 running with an Exynos 8890, we’re left stumped on how Meizu will handle the launch of this darn phone.Well, we’re hearing just a bit more about ...

Meizu’s billboard device right now may be the PRO 6, but it also has a major product line that serves the price bracket under that spotlight and that’s its MX-series (you see the MX5 as our header). And to be frank, we’re pretty darn surprised that we haven’t gone on the trail for the MX6. After all, it’s said to have a major ten-core processor we’ve been hashing on ...

Although the global smartphone market has been under an innovation-hindering OS duopoly for several years now, which Windows Mobile no longer seems capable of pressuring, a host of smaller platforms continue to walk the fine line between complete oblivion and relative relevance.One of these is

While we’ve seen a myriad of respectable sub-$200 and even sub-$150 mid-range Androids unveiled in China lately, it remains tricky for Huawei, Xiaomi and Meizu to squeeze decent specifications into the sub-$100 space.But along comes the Meizu m3 now, making us wonder exactly where do its manufacturers find the money to survive in ...

If HTC brought the “power of 10” onto the international Android high-end stage yesterday, Meizu strikes back today with the actual processing muscle and camera capabilities of 10 for China. But this new flagship’s called Pro 6, and although it could just as well be accused of finding inspiration in HTC designs, it willingly concedes to iPhone 6s comparisons.Flattering ones, mostly, as the aluminum unibody construction works perfectly with more subdued horizontal ...

Thursday’s the day that Meizu will set onto the world the Pro 6 smartphone. No, it’d be disingenuous to call this an iPhone-wannabe with its antenna lines. Check out that large camera port with the freaky little ring flash below it. Official renders and releases have talked about that inner circle housing a laser ...

The past few weeks have brought us a fair amount of news about upcoming Meizu handsets, and in addition to the roadmap that appeared to give us a preview of the company’s phone plans through the rest of the year, we’ve had the opportunity to check out a few models in greater detail. Those include the m3 note, which made its official debut yesterday, as well a pair of Pro 6 models: a full-sized Pro 6 and a a Pro 6 mini. While neither handset has yet to join the m3 note ...

And so it begins. Meizu’s remarkable 2016 push for the domestic low-cost crown, as well as Western relevance, that is. Of course, the up-and-coming Chinese OEM is looking to warm us up with a momentous opening act before unleashing the Pro 6 headliner.Meet the Meizu m3 note, an affordable Android powerhouse meant to even

Meizu’s Pro 6 has been leaking like a sieve for weeks now, and ever since the company posted an early official shot of the phone in an effort to curtail some iPhone 7 rumors, we’ve been spotting it time in time again in a mix of hands-on pics and newly leaked renders. Today we’re breaking from that pattern just a little bit as we switch our attention over to the Pro 6’s smaller ...

Instead of burying its head in the sand and firmly denying its Android phone designs are so alike iPhones they’re starting to pass as their iOS rivals in the rumor mill, Meizu appears to be embracing the comparisons, trying to turn them into free publicity for the upcoming Pro 6 flagship.Normally, we’d expect this bad boy to see daylight sometime in the fall, when the Pro 5 turns one, but judging from ...

After its best year on record in terms of smartphone shipments, China-based OEM Meizu was the protagonist of a fairly awkward unauthorized US distribution situation last month, then an even weirder but also amusing leak episode last week.You don’t often see company executives disprove exposés claiming to be of the competition, and therefore unwillingly confirm the ...

Back at the start of the week, Meizu’s Pro 6 was already shaping up to be a pretty impressive handset, as rumors suggested the phone would end up with 6GB of RAM, up to 128GB storage, a pressure-sensitive touch panel, and a top-of-the-line Exynos 8890 SoC – not too shabby any way you cut it. But then all of a sudden the Pro 6 found itself in a spotlight for a very different reason: a leaked pic of the smartphone started making the rounds …
