Meizu recently announced the Meizu M1 Note, the first device in its Blue Charm lineup last week. The phone came with impressive specs with an iPhone 5C like design at a very affordable price tag. While the M1 Note went out of stock for pre-order on its officially website within hours after the the company started accepting orders, those who missed the chance can now pre-order it online via Oppomart.

Although the website is named Oppomart, you can practically buy any device of Chinese make from this e-commerce website. The Meizu M1 Note was spotted listed on this website earlier today for a price tag of $249. While this is more than the actual $160 price tag of the M1 Note, we often see resellers charge a premium price for a hot product, especially when it is very hard to purchase. As a result, even at $249, if someone really wants to buy the device, the M1 Note still turns out to be a very capable phone at this price.

Once you place an order for the phone, Oppomart will start shipping your product one week from now. We expect very high demand for this new Meizu device, hence make sure you hurry up your order. The Meizu M1 Note is available in five different colors namely Blue, Green, White, Yellow and Pink.

Coming to the specifications, the Meizu M1 Note will sport a 5.5-inch Full HD 1080p display and will be powered by the 64-bit 1.7GHz octa-core MT6752 processor with 2GB RAM. There will be 16GB on board storage which unfortunately will not be expandable. At the back will be a 13MP camera sensor capable of recording 1080p videos and slo-mo videos at 120fps. While up front, there will be a 5MP shooter. The phone will support features such as dual band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS + Glonass navigation and 4G LTE. Finally, a 3140 mAh battery will power all these features, which is quite decent for a device of this size.

Head over to the oppomart website to pre-order the all new Meizu M1 Note.

At the launch of the Meizu MX4, the company promised that the Flyme 4.0 OS would also work on the MX3 and possibly the MX2 based on the circumstances. Now, Meizu has confirmed that the Meizu MX2’s OS would also run the Flyme 4.0.

This morning, according to Flyme’s official Weibo account, the firmware for the Flyme 4.0 for the Meizu MX2 and MX3 will soon undergo closed beta tests, and 500 users can participate in each of the two tests. Take note that, according to Meizu, once their operating systems are upgraded to the Flyme 4.0 OS, the user cannot bring them back to the Flyme 3.0, so those interested in participating should carefully consider. Since Meizu’s engineers are already working on the Flyme 4.0, updates for the Flyme 3.0 should stop by early next week.
