Earlier this month, we reported that two new Meizu phones have been certified by TENAA. The appearance of the two phones came as a surprise since Meizu’s recently-adopted strategy is to release only two flagship phones in a year. Now that may be changing this year according to a new leak.

News from China courtesy of the Weibo leaker, Bald Panda, has revealed that Meizu has another flagship coming, one that will be more powerful than the Meizu 18 series which launched earlier this year. We want to believe that one of the two recently-certified devices is this new flagship.

Since the source says the new flagship will be more powerful, we can expect the phone to be powered by the Snapdragon 888 Plus processor which manufacturers are using for their second-half flagship phones.

We do not yet know what the new Meizu phone will be called however we do have a few guesses. Meizu may decide to go with Meizu 18s or Meizu 18T if this is a slight refresh to the Meizu 18 from earlier this year. It may also decide to go with a different name entirely. More details about the phone should surface in the weeks leading up to its launch.

The second of the two devices may be a more affordable version with a Snapdragon 870 or Dimensity 1200 processor.
