Meizu products were initially in demand with us when the Russian consumer tasted the right Chinese quality and the right prices. Then the company pushed Xiaomi with its even more attractive pricing policy and processors on the "Dragon". Now, Maize has revised her views on smartphone construction and focuses on design, cameras, individual features and convenience, achieved through the use of innovative technologies like pressure recording or the mBack button.
We have collected for you the best smartphones from Meizu in the budget, medium and premium segments. These are proven models that are worthy of their price.
The best inexpensive Meizu smartphones: a budget of up to 10,000 rubles.
Despite the fact that Meise is a Chinese company, its products cannot be called too cheap. Yes, the price / performance ratio is just great, and even top devices are relatively inexpensive, but there are no ultra-budget smartphones in the company's lineup. The cost of the phones starts from around 8 thousand rubles.
4 Meizu M6 16GB
A country: China
Average price: 7939 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Chic inexpensive smartphone. For seven thousand rubles, you get a 5.2-inch IPS matrix with HD resolution, a 13 megapixel camera, an eight-core processor (yes, at the Media library), a convenient one-button control. All the necessary sensors are available: light, approximation, gyroscope and compass, fingerprint scanner. This is the best device for those who love Meise and are looking for something budgetary for surfing the Internet, using social networks, casual games and photographing.
In reviews, users complain about the quality of the photo in poor lighting conditions, especially those made on the front-facing camera, and also complain about only the HD resolution of 5.2 inches. Given the price, all the shortcomings of the smartphone are logical and excusable.
3 Meizu m5c
A country: China
Average price: 8 310 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.4
Model M5c is the most affordable in the class of budget devices. But this accessibility imposes a number of restrictions. First of all, you should pay attention to the plastic case. It quickly scratches, even with careful use. Yes, and in the hand it feels not so nice. The second major drawback is lower performance. The processor is slightly weaker than its competitors, the RAM is only 2 GB, the internal memory is 16 GB. Buyers in their reviews claim that the interface works without problems, but it’s better not to recall heavy applications and games. Also disadvantages include the absence of a fingerprint scanner, which the other two participants have.
What is the result, is the phone bad? Not really. Given the price tag, we have a great contender for the role of an inexpensive smartphone. Worse, it is only when compared with brand mates.
Advantages:
- Lowest cost
- Good build quality
Disadvantages:
- All performance indicators are slightly lower than those of competitors.
2 Meizu M5 32Gb
A country: China
Average price: 10 876 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
Model M5 is hardly the best in all respects. Appearance is the same as the M5c, discussed above, and therefore all the disadvantages are the same. The only difference is slightly increased dimensions due to the screen increased to 5.2 inches. Although the resolution remains the same - 1280x720 pixels.There are not too many internal differences, but already when compared with the M5s. The processor is little different in performance, the amount of RAM is the same 3 GB, but the video processor is somewhat more powerful. Although you can still play either casual games or serious games with minimal graphics settings. Even the amount of internal storage is the same - 32 GB. In general, the device is not bad, but the price is higher than that of the M5s, and the plastic case is a mess ...
Advantages:
- Large internal memory
- Good performance
- Good picture quality under normal lighting.
Disadvantages:
- Plastic body that quickly scratches
Most often, Meizu products are compared with a fellow countryman - Xiaomi. Both companies very quickly gained momentum and gathered a huge army of fans. And, of course, disputes between those armies will never subside, whose idol is better. We will not stand on the side of one or another manufacturer, but simply collect the pros and cons of each of them in the table.
pros |
Minuses |
|
Meizu |
+ Design. Budget models look slightly better than competitors of the same price range. + Sales start on a larger scale, and therefore it is easier to buy a novelty at the start of sales. + Great sound in headphones. Flagship smartphones are equipped with a DAC, which provides excellent sound. + Better picture quality in budget and middle classes + Branded mTouch button that combines a fingerprint scanner, physical and touch keys |
- MediaTek Chipsets. Top-end smartphones Meizu equipped with excellent processors from Samsung, but the initial and the average is based on mediocre SoC MediaTek. - Similar models are somewhat more expensive than Xiaomi |
Xiaomi |
+ Lower prices, better price / performance ratio + Own ecosystem. Xiaomi has a huge number of other smart devices, and they work especially well with their smartphones. + Powerful stuffing + Availability of IR port in almost all models |
- A large number of suppliers of components because of what the quality is a little "dancing" - A large number of flaws in the OS (for example, the well-known problem of not receiving notifications) |
What is the result? You can not select only Meizu or only Xiaomi. Both companies have successful and failed smartphones, as well as branded chips and famous flaws. As usual, the choice is more dependent on the personal preferences of the buyer.
1 Meizu M5s 16Gb
A country: China
Average price: 8 500 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7
And here is the best Meizu in the budget class. First of all, the M5s model is distinguished by a metal case, which is good news. This dignity is mentioned in many customer reviews. Secondly, the stuffing pleases. MediaTek MT6753 can hardly be called a performance monster, but it’s good enough for a smart interface and applications. Moreover, in the 32GB version, a 3GB “RAM” is installed (in the version with 16 GB of RAM, only 2 GB of RAM is installed). In games, the device does not shine: kazualki go without problems, but serious games only at the minimum graphics settings, and sometimes there can be slowdowns.
Cameras pleased. Frontalka 5 megapixel shoots just fine for its price. The main camera shows itself well only with sufficient light. It remains to add to the above low cost, and get a great phone.
Advantages:
- Low cost
- Metal case
- Excellent performance for this class
- Good front camera
The best Meizu smartphones with a large screen: a budget of up to 15,000 rubles.
Large displays in smartphones are now in vogue. Now it is no surprise that the 5-inch device is called a “mini”. And this is quite logical, because in recent years the percentage of people who consume content from the screen of a smartphone is growing at an incredible pace. Moreover, the larger the screen, the more comfortable it is to watch a video or play. Of course, Meiza has a lot of big devices in the assortment, but we have selected only relatively inexpensive models for you.
3 Meizu M6 Note 3 / 32GB
A country: China
Average price: 13751 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Model with Full HD, dual camera and 4000 mAh large battery.In the reviews, users express positive impressions about the use of the camera: shots come out bright, juicy and clear. Some are confused by the bokeh effect - it looks weird. Macro shooting is fine, autofocus does not fail. The main drawback of the model is not a bright screen. From the box, the phone's display can tend to warm shades - it is treated with a correction with a bias to blue in the settings. Another smartphone owners are unhappy with the quality of the coating - it quickly collects scratches.
Pleases the performance - the company "Maza" decided on another experiment with the "Dragon", so here, to the joy of users, there is a smart eight-core Snapdragon 625. The bonus is fast charging, which charges the smartphone 50% in half an hour.
2 Meizu M5 Note 32 Gb
A country: China
Average price: 15 494 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.6
Smartphone M5 Note is the successor to the previous participant rating. And, of course, this model is somewhat better. Appearance remained the same to the smallest detail - even the dimensions differ only by a couple of tenths of a millimeter. The screen is still the same 5.5 ’display with FullHD resolution, but the contrast is higher, which is noticeable to the naked eye. The cameras have also changed for the better. There is no change in numbers (13 Mp, aperture 2.2), but the pictures are much better. In the dark, the noise is not very much, and in daylight with direct hands you get just great shots.
But in terms of productivity, progress is not noticeable, and this is extremely sad. Also it is worth considering that there are several modifications of the smartphone: models for 16 and 32 GB are equipped with 3 GB of RAM, 64 GB version - 4 GB. Finally, it is worth noting the presence of fast charging, thanks to which the 4000 mAh battery charges in just 1.5 hours.
Advantages:
- Great camera
- More contrast display
- In the 64GB version, the largest amount of RAM
- Fast charge
Disadvantages:
- I would like more performance
1 Meizu M6s 64GB
A country: China
Average price: 12400 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.8
The device, which attracts customers with its convenient virtual mTouch button, replacing three standard Android buttons. Another plus in the M6s piggy bank is the Samsung processor, not the mediatek dodging trotting. Here is a 5.7-inch diagonal with HD + resolution and a trendy 18: 9 aspect ratio. Both cameras are shot decently for this price segment: both the main one with 16 Mp and the front one with 8 Mp. This phone from Meise received universal user approval.
The main grievances in the reviews concern the need to choose between a second SIM card and a memory card. But how much enthusiasm is the quality of the photo, fast and conveniently located side scanner, stylish expensive-looking design and friendly Flyme shell.
Top Meizu flagship smartphones
The vast majority of smartphone manufacturers have a clear separation of devices into classes. The division is trivial, at a cost - budget, middle and top classes. Of course, Meise is no exception, so let's look at the most powerful, beautiful and expensive models of their production.
3 Meizu Pro 7 64GB
A country: China
Average price: 23290 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5
On the back of the device is a small color touch screen. It doesn’t add much functionality, it’s convenient to watch only time, track notifications and pedometer indicators. But it is unusual, beautiful and pontovo. And with it, you can click a selfie on the main camera.
In reviews, users note the steep quality of the photo (here is a two-module main camera), a luxurious appearance and a surprisingly high-quality deep sound. There is nothing to scold the screen for - it is a bright AMOLED, contrasting and clear. Problems - no NFC, no ability to connect a memory card, not a powerful battery (maximum - two days). Some users also complain about Meizu’s roughly-crafted Flyme shell and Mediatek’s modest chipset performance.

Rating (2019): 4.9
Fans of this smartphone claim that with its two-module 12 and 20 megapixel camera it shoots no worse than the iPhone X and the flagship of Samsung.This is quite similar to the truth, as there is a cool laser autofocus, optical stabilization and three (!) Multiple optical zoom. The conventionally frameless design with a button under the screen and the case clad in ceramics acts magnetically, attracting buyers.
Top processor, water protection, contactless payment module NFC - none of this is not here. Here is a fast, but not the most productive Snapdragon 660 chipset, 4 GB of RAM, fast charging and a battery with a modest capacity of 3000 mAh, a fingerprint scanner and a face recognition function. The screen is worthy of praise - this is the development of "Samsung". It is not clear how the manufacturer “forgot” to install NFC in its flagship - this is a hard mistake. In general, this is a good alternative for those who do not have enough money for the latest Galaxy or who are fundamentally against Apple.
1 Meizu 16th 6 / 64Gb
A country: China
Average price: 32000 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9
Smartphone with perfect proportions. “Maize” did not bend under the trends: did not attach a “eyebrow” to the screen and did not remove the audio jack. Engineers made the same indents at the top and bottom, synchronized the position of the connectors and buttons. A smart 6-inch AMOLED screen with Full HD + and an aspect ratio of 18 to 9 is equipped with a fingerprint scanner. Yes, the sensor is located directly under the screen. A fly in the ointment - you need to put your finger in a strictly designated place, and the response speed is lower than that of competitors. But the scanner is accurate. There is also an unlock on the face that works even in the dark.
A small but weighty bun is a separate vibration motor that works nicely and gently. The vaunted mBack button has evolved into a onscreen navigation bar. There are also gestures and standard navigation keys. Performance is great, because here is the top Snapdragon processor 845. The main disadvantage of the new product is the lack of NFC. Also, the device is not happy with autonomy - with moderately active use, the day lives on one charge.
