Yesterday, Meizu took to Weibo to confirm that the Meizu 17 series will be made official on May 8. It appears that the company will continue to reveal the key features of the Meizu 17 5G and Meizu 17 Pro 5G ahead of their launch. Today, the company shared a render of the smartphone to reveal the appearance of the Meizu 17 5G and its two color editions.
The official render reveals that the Meizu 17 5G will be arriving in China in at least two color schemes like Fantasy Unicorn White and 17-Degree Gray. The Chinese firm recently claimed that the Meizu 17 is the only 5G-capable flagship smartphone in China to flaunt a white colored front panel. The same can be seen in the official render.
The Meizu 17 5G has rounded corners, a flat display and a curved rear panel. The upper bezel of the device has an earpiece. The bottom bezel seems to be slightly thick than the other bezels of the phone.
