Few months ago, Meizu CEO Jack Wong had claimed that the company will be launching the Meizu 16s series in April. The second week of April has already begun and there is no official update on the Meizu 16s launch date yet. However, a Chinese leakster with good record on leaking information has claimed that the Meizu 16s will be announced on April 23. On the very same day, Lenovo will be also unleashing its Snapdragon 855 powered Lenovo Z6 Pro flagship phone.

According to the tipster, the Meizu 16s series will be tentatively announced on April 23 at Zhuhai Base Camp in China. At the same time, the Meizu’s official flagship store on Tmall has a poster that states that a “Sparkling New Machine” will be on sale soon. The store will be warming up for the new product on April 21 and 22 which is another indication that the Chinese manufacturer may launch the Meizu 16s on April 23.

The above image taken from Meizu’s Tmall official store show two headphones that have been already announced in the past. The poster is talking about the other new product that will be announced soon. Since the company is expected to unleash the Meizu 16s series in April, it is likely that it could be teasing its arrival on Tmall.

The Meizu 16s has already passed TENAA certification through which it has been revealed that it will be arriving with a 6.2-inch full HD+ AMOLED display. It will be sporting a symmetrical design and its upper and lower bezels will be slightly slimmer than the Meizu 16th. The Snapdragon 85 mobile platform will be fueling the phone along with up to 8 GB of RAM. It will be arriving with 128 GB of native storage. The Android 9 Pie OS flavored with the latest edition of Flyme UI will be available on the device.
