Meizu has recently announced a new addition to its Blue
charm series – the Meizu Metal, which joins the rest of the company’s m line
together with the m1
and m2
as well as their bigger note versions.
As the name suggests, the device will be constructed from
metal. It will be powered by MediaTek’s newest Helio X10 chip with a 2.0GHz
octa-core processor, PowerVR G6200 GPU, 2GB of RAM and up to 32GB of expandable
internal storage.
The device is built around a 5.5-inch Full HD LTPS display
that is protected by a layer of Dinorex T2X-1 glass with curved edges giving
the panel a 2.5D effect. Meizu has also added a 13MP camera at the back with
two LED flashes, a 5MP camera on the front and a fingerprint scanner embedded
within the home button.
Connectivity-wise, the phone offers support for LTE and dual-SIM
functionality. Energy is supplied by a 3140mAh battery while the operating
system installed in Android Lollipop with the company’s Flyme 5.1 launcher on
top.
The Meizu Metal will be available in a slew of colors
including white, gold, gray, blue and pink. The phone is now available for
pre-order in China for $199 for the 16GB model.
