Due to the coronavirus epidemic, most places in China are not yet open. In order not to violate the anti-epidemic measures during the presentation of Meizu 17 series, the company started building a special construction near its headquarters. Fans who have the opportunity will be able to come and watch the conference live. The rest will follow the event through the online broadcast.
As promised, Meizu reveals to us every day some details about what to expect on May 8. From what has been officially shared so far, it is certain that two flagship models will be presented – Meizu 17 and Meizu 17 Pro. They will have a personalized Super AMOLED display from Samsung with eye protection and 90Hz refresh rate.
The selfie camera will be located on the right in a hole in the display. The smartphones will be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC and X55 5G modem, UFS 3.1 flash memory, developed by Meizu horizontal linear vibromotor mEngine 3.0, two stereo speakers and a full-featured NFC module.
The rear camera will be quadruple, horizontal and with a ring LED flash in the middle. The main sensor will be the 64-megapixel Sony IMX686. So far, what is common in the cameras of the two models. At Meizu 17 Pro we have a specially developed 129-degree 32MP ultra-wide angle sensor and 3D detector for depth detection. In addition, the Pro version will have a ceramic body.
The battery is 4500mAh and will be charged with 30W Super mCharge fast charge from Meizu. Here, however, there is speculation that the Meizu 17 Pro will be with 40W Super mCharge. It is also rumored that it will support wireless charging.
Of course, you can’t pass a presentation of new phones without showing other products. Weibo recently leaked a photo of a Meizu 65W fast charger based on GaN (gallium nitride). The company has already confirmed that we will see it on May 8.
The conference will also feature the improved Meizu HD60 headphones with Active Noise Cancellation, a new external battery with a USB Type-C port. There will also be new products from the Lifeme series of high quality multi-colored fabrics, lightweight and with a renewed design.
