Meizu Zero 2 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Meizu Zero 2 - stillborn concept number two

The first Zero-line smartphone from the Chinese company Meizu never saw mass production. There are many reasons for this: a very high price, the controversial idea of a monolithic phone without connectors and holes, and so on. Surprisingly, the developer, with a frank failure of the model, decided to release its continuation. Has audiences tastes really changed over the past year?

The appearance of the novelty is much more interesting than that of the predecessor. The back glass panel is decorated not only with the brand logo, but also with four photomodules, while the front is located completely frameless 6.5-inch display, "waterfall" with a perfect 32-megapixel camera, "island". It is difficult not to admire the design of the device, but the lack of an input for headphones and even for a USB cable imposes a restriction on ergonomics. Yes, and you can’t use a regular SIM card, only Esim. There are no complaints about the quality of the AMOLED screen . The highest brightness and contrast settings, excellent resolution of 2280x1080 pixels - everything is close to ideal.

Specifications are the most top-notch. The Snapdragon 865 processor , 8 / 12GB of RAM , the Adreno 650 video accelerator will do everything to ensure that even after 3-4 years the most demanding games function without the slightest puzzling. The internal storage is allocated from 128 to 512GB, this amount of memory is enough for most Android users.

The combination of the main 64, 20, 16 and 8-megapixel cameras, led by the amazing Sony IMX686 sensor, allows you to achieve clear and detailed photos even without good lighting. The amount of noise in the pictures is minimal. The 4000mAh battery capacity is enough for about 8-9 hours of active screen time. Among the additional advantages, we note NFC (contactless payments), wireless charging (and the other does not), the FlymeOS branded shell based on Android Q, and protection against moisture and dust according to IP68 standards. However, even such a number of pluses are not able to distract from the originality of the device and its huge price tag.
