Meizu has been teasing the launch of the recently announced Meizu M3 Note in India. Now, the company has officially announced the device in India, just a month after the phone was announced back in China. It looks like for now, only the M3 Note will be sold in India, so the two other models released last month, namely the Meizu M3 and the Meizu Pro 6 flagship won’t be sold here yet. The company will be selling the same variant of the M3 Note as sold in China.

Meizu’s Blue Charm series models are usually made out of polycarbonate body. But this year, the company decided to change this tradition by using a unibody metal design on the new M3 Note. As for the specs, the phone comes with a 5.5-inch 1080p display with 2.5D curved glass on top. The phone will be powered by the Helio P10 octa-core processor with 2GB and 3GB RAM options. However, in India, the company seems to be selling only the 3GB RAM and 32GB storage variant. At the back, the phone will come with a 13MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture and PDAF while on the front, you get a 5MP shooter. Like the Redmi Note 3 Pro, Meizu has given the M3 Note a large 4100mAh battery which is good enough to last for more than a day. The battery is housed inside a 8.3mm body and the phone weighs 163 grams. As for the software, the phone comes with Android 5.1 Lollipop with Meizu’s own Flyme 5.1 UI on top.

At Rs. 9999 ($150), the Meizu M3 Note turns out to be a great option for Indian consumers. The phone will be available for sale on May 31 via flash sale model at 2PM exclusively on Amazon.

Meizu recently unveiled the Meizu M3 Note mid-range smartphone which managed to catch our attention mainly because it was cheap and powerful. The phone came with pretty impressive specs for the 799 Yuan price tag that it asks, which translates to roughly $124.

Like most Chinese smartphone makers these days, the company decided to sell the device via the flash sale model and the first sale for the device was today, via the company’s official website. While we knew that the demand for the phone was strong, now, Meizu has given us an official figure for the Meizu M3 Note sales in the first sale.

Meizu revealed today that it sold 100,000 Meizu M3 Note units within 7 minutes in the first ever flash sale for the device. Considering this smartphone brand managed to sell about 20 million phones in the year 2015, this is an impressive figure.

After a few months of silence, Meizu will finally unveil its first device of the year, namely the Meizu M3 Note on April 6. The company has been teasing the device for the past few days, however, we had little knowledge about the final specs of the device. But now, thanks to the AnTuTu listing of the M3 Note, we have a good idea as to what to expect from the upcoming device. Most of the M3 Note specs are in line with what earlier leaks have predicted.

According to AnTuTu, the Meizu M3 Note will come with the Helio P10 MT6755m octa-core processor with 2GB / 3GB RAM options. You can choose between 16GB and 32GB storage versions as well. While the display size is not yet revealed, we can expect it to be the same as the previous models, i.e. 5.5-inches. Resolution will be FHD 1920 x 1080p. At the back, there will be a 13MP camera, while up front a 5MP shooter. As for software, the phone will be running on Android 5.1 Lollipop.

After taking a look at these specs, the biggest update is in the processor department, moving from the MT6753 in the M2 Note to Helio P10 in the new model. Rest of the specs including battery (expected to be 3500mAh) are more or less the same. With these specs on board, the Meizu M3 Note managed to score about 45000 on the AnTuTu benchmark app. This isn’t too impressive, but the scores may improve in the final version. Also, considering that the phone will retail for around 999 Yuan ($154), these specs are good.

According to Meizu CEO, Huang, the M3 Note is not only the first smartphone from the company in 2016, it’s also going to be the most beautiful one. We still don’t have very clear renders of the device, but let’s hope we see the phone in real life pretty soon.

Stay tuned for more details.
