Back in April, Meizu unveiled three new devices in a span of 15 days in three different conferences. Now, the company seems to be following a similar strategy as Meizu has a new event scheduled for September 5, where we will most likely meet the Meizu Max (or Meizu M3 Max). This will make it the third smartphone launch (fourth launch in reality since there were two phones announced in the new U series — U10 and U20) within a month, after the launch of Meizu M3E on August 10.

The latest leak, now, gives us the first possible glimpse of the Meizu Max. This is the first time we are seeing the upcoming handset in real life. The phone does look big, which is in line with the rumors that have been going around. The Meizu Max, like the name suggest, is probably going to be a phablet, coming with a large display around 6-inches. The company’s invites came with the business class Nokia E71 handset, which hinted that the handset would be ideal for business users as well.

There’s not much difference in design as seen in these alleged images as compared to the Meizu M3E that was announced earlier in August. The back is plain, conforming with Meizu’s recent design language. Nothing out of the ordinary. So, it looks like the Meizu Max (or M3 Max) will be an enlarged version of the M3E model. Of course, there is a possibility that the design on the Max could be different. But considering that Meizu has been lazy with its design, using almost the same design language on all its recent phones, this probably is what the Max will look like.

As for the pricing, we can expect the Max to retail around 1799 Yuan ($270).

In case you are wondering, this is what the Meizu M3E looks like.

Meizu has a new smartphone launching on September 5 but at this moment, the company has revealed nothing about the product. There have been reports that Meizu is all set to announce the Meizu Max smartphone on that day and it most likely will be a new phablet from the company.

While we may not be sure of the identity of the product launched on September 5, we may have some idea about the pricing. Recently, when users asked the question “What product will Meizu release on September 5” to Meizu’s voice assistant found on its Blue Charm devices, it answered 1799. This could be Meizu’s way of hinting the price of its upcoming device.

If this turns out to be the real pricing, the Meizu Max would directly compete with the likes of Xiaomi Mi Max and ZTE Nubia Z11 Max.

We are almost getting lost in keeping count with the number of smartphones Meizu has released so far this year (although still less than Xiaomi!) and yet the Chinese phone maker isn’t done yet. Just yesterday, we saw the Meizu U10 and U20 budget-phones and now Meizu has officially announced a news conference coming up on September 5 during which they plan to release another smartphone (most likely a phablet).

This time around, it seems this one is going to be a large screen phablet but quite surprisingly, the invitation also features a classic Nokia E71 phone. Now, Meizu isn’t manufacturing the next Nokia phone but it is very likely the upcoming smartphone will offer business applications and functions just like the Nokia E71 which was specifically built for business users worldwide.

Earlier on, popular tipster @Kjuma had leaked Meizu’s launch schedule beginning with August 28 for the U-series phones which seem to be the Meizu U10 and U20 released on August 23. The next is September 5 when Meizu is expected to launch its Meizu Max and from there, the attention will shift to September 13 when the much anticipated Meizu Pro 7 flagship will be unveiled.

In addition, Meizu had earlier been rumored to be working on a new 6-inch large screen device which may be called Meizu Max and the slogan of the announcement poster suggests that Meizu is targeting the younger generation with the upcoming phone. Apart from that, not much is known about the upcoming large screen smartphone.
