Meizu isn’t exactly a household name in most places around the world, but the Chinese manufacturer looks ready to make a splash come September 2nd when it’s expected to announce its latest flagship smartphone, the Meizu MX4. We’ve previously had a look at the company’s outgoing flagship, the MX3, and were pleasantly surprised with its performance and overall value; hopefully, the MX4 is more of the same. Meizu will be holding an event on September 2nd, at 2:30pm Beijing time and comes just a few days before the start of IFA 2014.
Rumours surrounding the MX4 say that there will be two variants of the device, the “standard” model with a 5-inch display and a “pro” version with a 5.5-inch display. The processors will also differ – a Exynos 5430 for the “standard”, Exynos 5433 for the “pro – and both will have 3GB RAM, a 20.7MP rear camera and a 8MP front camera. According to leaked photos, the MX4 is also going to have extremely then side bezels (as shown above). This all sounds very good, and the “standard” device is allegedly going to be sold for a very reasonable $406 USD, but it will have to be reasonably priced if it has any hope to go against the newly found might of home-grown competitor, Xiaomi.
Would you be interested in the Meizu MX4 if it had the specs listed above? Let us know your thoughts.
