Meizu 15 Plus 6 / 64GB
Rating: 4.9
The most expensive smartphone in our rating. And he also has the fewest drawbacks. How can you reproach the device with something with a smart dual camera consisting of sensors with a resolution of 12 and 20 Mp? This camera shoots no worse than SLR cameras with standard optics. In particular, she also knows how to blur the background beautifully, resulting in cute portraits. It should be noted that the two lenses have a different focal length, which allows the owner of the smartphone to instantly switch to a threefold optical zoom. What other device will offer similar? It's funny that there will be no complaints from the buyer and the front camera. Although it consists of one lens, but it includes a 20-megapixel matrix. In short, lovers of selfie device just love it! Another question: are they ready to pay 46 thousand rubles for it?
Of course, this camera is not good for cameras. It is also able to boast an immaculate appearance, the width of its side frames is minimized. The screen here is used almost 6-inch AMOLED-panel. It speaks not only about saturated colors, but also about low power consumption. The display resolution is 2560x1440 pixels - hardly anyone will demand more. Of course, a powerful processor is required for processing images with this resolution. Fortunately, he is here - it is a rare case when the eight-core Samsung Exynos 8895 is used outside the products of a South Korean company. The device also includes 6 GB of operational memory and 64 GB of permanent memory - it’s not enough to call this language insufficient.
About Meizu 15 Plus, you can talk for a very long time. This device has modern wireless modules, stereo speakers, fingerprint scanner, two slots for SIM-cards, face recognition function ... In a word, it makes no sense to list all the advantages. As for the price tag, it was influenced by the fact that this smartphone is essentially experimental. Most of the components for it were provided by Samsung, and not for a penny. On the Meizu 15 Plus triple optical zoom technology rolls around. It depends on how customers perceive it, whether a similar dual camera will appear in the next South Korean flagship.

Meizu Pro 7 Plus 128GB
Rating: 4.9
The amount of permanent memory in 64 GB seems insufficient to you, but is it reluctant to use a microSD card? Then we recommend to pay attention to the Meizu Pro 7 Plus. This is the only smartphone in our rating, having in its composition 128 GB of internal memory. This volume should be enough for a huge amount of music (including uncompressed) and many photographs. Even movies with Full HD resolution will fit here - each one usually weighs 10-12 GB.
You'd be surprised, but not even the amount of memory is the main feature of Meizu Pro 7 Plus. Among competitors, it stands out by the presence of a second display located on the rear panel, right under the dual camera. This screen has a diagonal of 1.9 inches, and it was created using AMOLED technology - you should not worry about the increased power consumption. Most often, a display with a resolution of 536x240 pixels will be used for taking selfies. That is, the front camera now goes into the background. Although its resolution is very high - as much as 16 Mp. It is a pity that this module will be used only during video communications.
If we are talking about cameras, then it is impossible not to mention the main module. As already written above, it is double. Under the lens are hidden matrix with a resolution of 12 megapixels. This design helps the camera to make pictures more sharp, and if necessary - to easily blur the background.
On the front panel of the device is a 5.7-inch screen. It was also created using AMOLED technology, and its resolution is 2560x1440 pixels. For every inch of space there are 515 pixels! In a word, it is not surprising that the top ten decade solution from MediaTek is used as a processor. And the device can boast a capacious battery with support for proprietary fast charging technology. Nothing bad can be said about the wireless modules - they support all modern technologies. With the exception of NFC, Meizu does not want to use this chip in its devices yet.
Virtues
-
Uses AMOLED display with very high resolution;
-
Available LTE and Wi-Fi 802.11ac.
-
On the rear panel there is an auxiliary display;
-
Very decent front camera;
-
Excellent dual camera;
-
Fingerprint scanner is not forgotten;
-
A huge amount of memory;
-
There is a very powerful processor Helio X30;
-
Built-in battery with support for Meizu Super mCharge;
disadvantages
-
NFC is missing;
-
In large retail chains the cost reaches 37 thousand rubles.
Meizu MX5 32GB
Rating: 4.8
A great smartphone for those who cannot afford top devices. This device is much cheaper, but according to its characteristics, it continues to surpass the majority of competitors on the market. For example, it uses a 5.5-inch screen with a resolution of Full HD. Many buyers do not need more - this is an ideal option for watching movies and videos. It is also important that the display was created using AMOLED technology. This means that the buyer is waiting for perfect black colors and very low power consumption. The second factor also contributes to the processor, made by a very thin process technology. As it is used here MediaTek Helio X10 Turbo, consisting of eight cores and capable of operating at a clock frequency of 2.2 GHz.
On the back of the device is the main camera lens. It has a resolution of 20.7 megapixels - this is more than enough for creating detailed images and recording 4K video. To save the latter here, however, not so much space - only 32 GB. However, no one forbids inserting a memory card, then the videos will be written on it. Importantly, the slot for the microSD card is separate, it does not interfere with the installation of a second SIM card.
Otherwise, this is a typical Meizu smartphone, which does not belong to the budget segment.He also got into our rating for supporting LTE and Wi-Fi 802.11ac networks - the data transfer rate of the buyer will definitely suit. There is also a fingerprint sensor, which is triggered in a fraction of a second. Some claims can be made only to the battery, the capacity of which does not exceed 3150 mAh.
Virtues
-
Used music chip NXP-TFA9890;
-
The weight of the device does not exceed 149 g.
-
Screen resolution can not be called low;
-
The display consists of organic LEDs;
-
Excellent high resolution rear camera;
-
There is support for Wi-Fi 802.11ac and LTE;
-
There is a fingerprint scanner;
-
Built-in powerful eight-core processor;
disadvantages
-
Not the latest version of Android;
-
The battery could be more capacious;
-
Finding in Russian stores is almost impossible;
Meizu Pro 7 64GB
Rating: 4.7
Another and not the last smartphone in our rating, having at its disposal 64 GB of nonvolatile memory. The device was released relatively recently, so it is provided by the Android 7.0 operating system, which will not become obsolete for many years. The OS itself is provided by the MediaTek Helio P25 processor. This is an eight-core solution, with enough power to solve any problems. In the games, the graphic accelerator Mali-T880 MP2 is used. In short, the buyer is unlikely to complain about the lack of performance. It is generally difficult to find the negative side, which could complain. The owner of the smartphone should arrange both 4 GB of RAM, support for LTE networks of the sixth category, and the availability of a full-fledged audio chip, thanks to which you only want to listen to music in the FLAC format.
However, not everything is so joyful. The cost of the smartphone is in the region of 25 thousand rubles. This means that the device can not consist only of top components. For example, a battery whose capacity does not exceed 3000 mAh can cause some discontent. However, it supports fast charging technology, so you shouldn't worry too much about this parameter. But with the module Wi-Fi nothing can be done, in connection with which the transfer of data through the high-speed standard 802.11ac will have to be forgotten. To be fair, not all smartphone buyers have a router supporting this standard.
On the front side of the device is AMOLED-screen, which has a high energy efficiency and a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. With a 5.2-inch diagonal, this resulted in a pixel density of 424 ppi. But the Meizu Pro 7 smartphone is not limited to one screen! This is the second representative of our rating, on the back of which there is an auxiliary AMOLED panel. Usually, it displays the date and time, but you can use such a small display to shoot yourself. The camera here, by the way, is double - under the lenses are 12-megapixel matrix. As for the "front camera", it has a 16-megapixel resolution.
Virtues
-
Good sound quality;
-
There is a large amount of memory;
-
A very powerful processor is built in;
-
Fingerprint scanner is not forgotten;
-
Supports LTE-A Cat.6;
-
There is a second display;
-
Good rear camera being double;
-
Very high resolution front camera;
-
Used AMOLED-display with Full HD resolution;
disadvantages
-
Not the fastest Wi-Fi;
-
Missing NFC chip;
-
I would like to get a more capacious battery;
Meizu M6 Note 4 / 32GB
Rating: 4.7
Were supposed to enter our rating and affordable Meizu smartphones. In particular, about 11 thousand rubles are asked for M6 Note in trade networks. It seems that many Russians can easily afford to buy such a device. What is waiting for this money?
Despite the name, the smartphone turned out not very large. On its front panel is only a 5.5-inch screen. Its resolution is 1920x1080 pixels. To the viewing angles of the claim just will not arise, the LCD panel is made using modern technology IPS.By the way, the Android 7.1 operating system is responsible for what is happening on the screen - there is nothing fresh in the arsenal of Meizu. On the rear panel, which can be painted in one of three colors, there is a double camera. Under her lenses are hidden matrix with a resolution of 12 and 5 megapixels. This camera is trying to blur the background quality when photographing a person. She tries, but she does not always succeed. But this in no way means that the camera is bad, because then this unit would not be included in our rating. If we talk about the "frontalke", then it has at its disposal a 16-megapixel sensor.
Meizu M6 Note really nothing to blame. Under its case are hidden 4 GB of RAM and 32 GB of permanent memory. Far from being the weakest Snapdragon 625, consisting of eight cores, is employed as a processor. Autonomous operation provides a 4000 mAh battery (support for fast charging is not forgotten). Of course, there is an LTE module here. The weak point of the device is only Wi-Fi - this module does not support the high-speed standard 802.11ac.
Virtues
-
Not the worst back camera;
-
Affordable price tag;
-
Three color options to choose from;
-
There is a fingerprint scanner;
-
High-capacity battery with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 support;
-
Large amount of memory;
-
Built-in powerful eight-core processor;
-
There is support for LTE and Bluetooth 4.2;
-
Excellent front camera;
disadvantages
-
NFC is missing;
-
The interface is not completely Russified;
-
The Wi-Fi module does not support 802.11ac;
Meizu M6s 64GB
Rating: 4.6
Slightly larger smartphone, which has a 5.7-inch display. He sells for 13-17 thousand rubles. At the same time, in terms of characteristics, the device is inferior to some competitors. But on the other hand, it surpasses them in the width of the color scale - four options are available to the buyer.
Like almost all modern Meizu smartphones, the device has two slots for SIM-cards. At the same time, data is transmitted via high-speed LTE networks. If we talk about Wi-Fi, then the capabilities of this module are limited to the standard 802.11n. There are also Bluetooth 4.1 and an infrared transmitter as part of the device. The latter is needed to control the TV and other appliances. But NFC is missing here again. This means that replacing a bank card with a smartphone will not work.
If the previous devices examined had dual cameras, then the familiar unit with a single lens is used here, under which is a 16 megapixel matrix. Maximum such a camera is capable of shooting video with a resolution of Full HD and a frequency of 30 frames / s. The resolution of the front-end is two times less, which, by the way, is also not bad.
The work of this model is provided by Samsung Exynos 7872 six-core processor. The device and the memory are OK - 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM are waiting for the buyer. You can find fault here only on the screen. This 5.7-inch display is made by IPS technology, which indicates a good color reproduction and maximum viewing angles. However, the screen resolution is only 1440x720 pixels - this is sad, especially compared to some other Meizu smartphones with a similar price tag.
Virtues
-
Good rear camera;
-
A large number of housing color options;
-
Excellent navigation capabilities;
-
Enough powerful processor;
-
Large amount of memory;
-
There is a fingerprint scanner;
-
Can be used as a remote control;
-
Data transmission over LTE networks is possible;
-
Not a bad front camera;
disadvantages
-
No NFC chip;
-
Finding an adequate price is quite difficult;
-
Not the best Wi-Fi module;
-
Not the highest resolution display;
Meizu M6 Note 3 / 32GB
Rating: 4.6
This ranking has already been discussed on the Meizu M6 Note. However, above we talked about the so-called advanced version of the device, equipped with an increased memory capacity.Do I need to say that not everyone needs this option? The Chinese manufacturer understands this by offering a version of the Meizu M6 Note, under the case of which 3 GB of operational and 32 GB of permanent memory are located. Let's try to understand, is there enough of this volume for everyday use?
Mobile operating system is able to operate on devices where there is at least 1 GB of RAM. And if this volume is tripled, then the user will receive a huge number of applications in the background. Even an Internet browser will not have problems, no matter how many tabs would be open. 32 GB of non-volatile memory is also quite a decent amount. Many smartphones from more eminent competitors are not able to boast even to them! And if you want to store a lot of music and video files, a slot for a microSD card will come to the rescue (128GB drives are supported as much as possible). It is a pity that this slot is combined with the space for the second SIM-card.
The rest of the gadget is not very different from its slightly more powerful fellow. It uses an eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor. The picture is displayed on a 5.5-inch display with a resolution of Full HD. Image processing deals with operating system Android 7.1. As for the set of wireless modules, it is familiar to Meizu. That is, NFC is not here, Wi-Fi is limited to the 802.11n standard, and LTE works without problems. A nice bonus would be an infrared transmitter, but the manufacturer decided to refuse it.
Virtues
-
Four color options are available;
-
There is a fingerprint sensor;
-
Excellent front camera;
-
Good rear camera being double;
-
LTE networks are supported;
-
Capacious battery with fast charging support;
-
Powerful processor;
-
A decent amount of memory;
-
Good navigation capabilities;
disadvantages
-
Find at a low price is not easy enough;
-
There is a pre-installed garbage that you need to get rid of;

Meizu m8c
Rating: 4.5
Recently, the company Meizu rarely produces budget smartphones. Nevertheless, it is possible to find such devices in Russian stores, which is confirmed by the example of the Meizu M8c in our rating. This unit is sold for 10 thousand rubles. In the shops you can find two color options - traditional black and unusual yellow.
The front panel of the gadget is a haven for the display, the diagonal of which is 5.45 inches, and resolution - 1440x720 pixels. Above it, you can find an 8-megapixel front camera, which is very bad for a device with such a price tag. If the device is turned, you can see the 13-megapixel rear camera. You can only find fault with its luminosity - the modest f / 2.2 aperture is part of the module.
The Chinese used the Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 as a processor. This is a 1.4 GHz quad-core solution. Not ideal, but it’s better than MediaTek’s equivalent chipset. Even under the case are hidden 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. There is no doubt that the user will need a microSD card, for the sake of which they will have to refuse to install a second SIM card. As for the wireless modules, in this regard, the device does not have enough stars from the sky. When using Wi-Fi, the smartphone owner will be limited to the 802.11n standard. On the street, you can use LTE-network. About NFC should be forgotten.
In short, the Meizu M8c is a very decent machine for its money. Of course, it has a number of limitations. But which budget smartphone can boast fewer flaws?
Virtues
-
Not the worst for such a cost processor;
-
The optimal price tag in most retail chains;
-
A good 8-megapixel front-facing;
-
It is a decent rear camera;
-
Implemented support for LTE networks;
-
There are proximity sensors and light;
disadvantages
-
There is no fingerprint scanner;
-
I would like more permanent memory;
-
No NFC chip;
Meizu M5 16GB
Rating: 4.4
The oldest smartphone in this rating.The official announcement of this model occurred in the fall of 2016. The same device is now one of the cheapest - in online stores you can buy it for 7-9 thousand rubles. So you shouldn’t expect any serious opportunities from it? No matter how wrong!
The product received a polycarbonate body, which can be painted in one of several colors. Partly because of this, the device turned out to be very light - its weight does not exceed 138 g. The device works without problems with LTE networks, providing the user with a high data transfer rate. Everything is in order here and with a navigation chip that supports GPS and GLONASS. There are no brakes when viewing maps, for which one should thank the eight-core MediaTek MT6750 processor.
Under the case of the smartphone are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory, which can be considered a standard set for the budget device. But the camera is used here atypical - it has a 13-megapixel resolution. With its help, you can easily shoot Full HD video, the frequency at the same time will be 30 frames / s. The manufacturer saved only on the front-end, which is 5 megapixel here. Also, the Chinese did not give their creations very capacious battery. But 3070 mAh is quite a decent parameter, which is enough for a day of autonomous work with not very active operation.
Perhaps, to disappoint someone Meizu M5 can only its screen. The 5.2-inch IPS panel used here has only HD resolution. But it is quite possible to accept this if you want to get the device for a little money.
