Recent reports have claimed that Meizu will be soon launching a new flagship phone called Meizu 16s Pro. It will be an advanced version of the Meizu 16s phone that was made official in April and it will be also arriving to replace the Meizu 16 Plus smartphone from last year. Recently, the Meizu M973Q phone was spotted at the database of National Radio Authority in China. The Meizu 16s has a model number of M971Q. Hence, it is believed that the newly spotted M973Q could be the Meizu 16s Pro. The same model number has appeared on the database of 3C authority of China.
The 3C listing of the Meizu M973Q has no information on its specifications. However, it reveals that the smartphone could be accompanied by a charger that supports up to 24W fast charging. The Meizu 16s also carries support for 24W rapid charging.
At the beginning of July, Chinese retailer site Taobao had carried a listing of the unannounced Meizu 16s Pro smartphone. The listing had carried an image of the smartphone which resembled with the design of the Meizu 16s phone. Its front is fitted with a notch-less display that is surrounded by slim bezels. The very thin bezel at the top features a front-facing camera.
The Meizu 16s Pro’s image on Taobao had revealed that is equipped with a vertical triple camera unit. The Meizu 16s has a Sony IMX586 48-megapixel primary lens and a 20-megapixel telephoto lens in its dual camera setup. Probably, the Meizu 16s Pro may feature the same camera sensors that are available on the 16s handset as well as an additional ultrawide flash. A ring-like LED flash is also present below the triple camera unit. The image also suggests that the phone could be equipped with an in-screen fingerprint scanner.
The Meizu 16s Pro could be a more powerful device than the Meizu 16s. Hence, it could be fueled by the Snapdragon 855+ chipset. Probably, the company may announce the smartphone by the end of this month. As of this writing, there is no official confirmation yet form Meizu on the existence of the handset.
