All the latest news regarding Meizu has been about their upcoming device, the Meizu 16Xs. While I’m quite eager to see that device considering I love Meizu, some other news has shown up that’s also quite interesting. A Meizu product manager teased a poster on Weibo that basically confirms Flyme 8 is imminent, and promptly deleted it. Will we see it launch alongside the Meizu 16Xs on the 30th of May?
It makes a lot of sense to launch a new version of their UI alongside a new device. It lets you show off all the new functions on shiny new hardware, and it’s just an effective way to build excitement. Google does it, Xiaomi does it, and Meizu’s been doing it for a long time now. If it’s true, then it adds to the list of things I’ll be excited to see come the Meizu 16Xs launch day.
The Meizu 16Xs will be arriving with a notch-less display of 6.2 inches. The AMOLED screen will offer full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2232 pixels and 18.5:9 aspect ratio. The display of the phone will be embedded with an in-screen fingerprint reader. The handset will be backed by a 4,000mAh battery, and may feature a 48MP triple camera setup.
We’ve no idea what SoC the device will come with, since we’ve received conflicting reports. It’s possible we’ll see a Snapdragon 710, but newer reports claim a Snapdragon 675. On top of all this, we’ve got the new features we can expect to see from Flyme 8 that we have yet to hear about. It’s certainly quite an exciting time to be a Meizu fan, and I can’t wait to see what comes out of it.
