Meizu Unveils New Meizu 21 PRO Smartphone at Special Event in February
The official introduction shows that the Meizu 21 PRO can be seen as a circle. First and foremost, it is a full stop, representing a perfect ending to the era of Meizu smartphones. At the same time, it also symbolizes a new beginning.
Meizu will stop developing new projects for traditional smartphones and will focus on AI by going All in AI, diverting their efforts to explore new AI devices.
However, this does not necessarily mean that Meizu will halt the research and development of hardware products.
Digital blogger @Digital Chat previously mentioned in a leak that Meizu has developed a decent mid-range AI terminal with enhanced performance. It adopts a straight screen design combined with a super-sized battery, along with a UP2033-66W fast charging head, paired with a BA468-5400mAh min/5500mAh±Typ battery.
In other words, Meizu will continue to introduce terminal devices in the future, but the specific positioning will be AI terminal devices rather than smartphones.
Recently, a new Meizu device with the model number M468Q passed the 3C certification.
The certification information indicates that this new device was applied for by Zhuhai Meizu Technology Co., Ltd., named “5G Digital Mobile Phone,” supporting a maximum of 66W fast charging.
According to the leak from @Digital Chat today, this new device is expected to be named Meizu 21 Note in the market, positioned as an AI performance flagship, “fully benchmarking against competitors like K70 and Ace3 in terms of gaming and performance experience, with a tailored configuration targeting the 618 shopping festival.”
Moreover, the blogger revealed in the comments section that Meizu 21 Note will “outperform recent mid-range devices in terms of performance.”
