Meizu m3 note 32gb report specifications. Review of Meizu M3 Note: excellent characteristics, inexpensive. Information about navigation and positioning technologies supported by the device

Recently we introduced you to a flagship that has generated a lot of noise - a smartphone. The time has come to turn the tables on another trampler of the quiet Chinese company - Meizu M3 Note. This is already the third smartphone of the popular line with a typical set of characteristics for the middle segment, a reasonable price, clear assembly and decent body materials. Why didn’t I look at my relatives? Let's find out.

Design and ergonomics

Inheriting the design of smartphones from “one American company” has already become a tradition for Meizu, but this time Chinese craftsmen decided to expand the geography of copying. That's why the front side of the wine is already guessing, but as soon as you look at the back, you see the fellow countryman's eyes.

There is a 5.5-inch display, on the front panel of the Meizu smartphone there is a large speaker, the end of the front camera and sensors, a notification indicator, a metal bevel and a hardware-sensor lightly recessed into the surface of the front panel on the key with the built-in mTouch 2.1 finger scanner.

There is no complaining about the sensor’s operation, but it handles its tasks “properly”, recognizing the power buttons for unlocking the screen and limiting access to add-ons. The role of the key does not end there. The initial pressure allows you to unlock the screen, turn off the stuck freeze, turn to the desktop, in which you can select the functions of the Home button. The additional touch ball can also be used as the “Back” key, so you can lightly touch its surface. This functionality can be appreciated on Apple smartphones with a small screen diagonal, where you often miss the navigation elements in the interface.

Right-handed, two large mechanical keys have been loosened, they noticeably stick out between the body and move dramatically. Claims may arise from those who sound before the left-side placement of the volume control, the inability to quickly adjust the level of the signal during the development process and there will be a little friction. Headphone jack on the top end, handle - opening of the additional microphone. At the bottom there are symmetrical loudspeaker and microphone grilles, a microUSB connector, a microphone and do not disturb the harmony of the Vinyatkovo pair. A tray for two NanoSIM cards (or a NanoSIM card and a memory card) was integrated into the left side panel.



The design of the rear panel is streamlined, you might think that it is made of aluminum on the surface, but that is not the case. The upper and lower parts of the housing have two plastic inserts for correct operation of the antennas. The stench developed under the color of the metal, conveyed exactly the matte texture, which shows masking only in the absence of a chill during the touch, typical for metal surfaces. The other, larger part of the Viconan body is made of aluminum alloy.

On the upper part of the back, the camera module with a light-colored cover and the printer’s logo protrude slightly.

Dimensions of the case are 153.6 x 75.5 x 8.2 mm, weight 163 g. The device is easy to hold in your hand and does not feel like it is working, which makes you happy with the battery capacity of 4100 mAg. It’s a shame that if we don’t praise the manufacturer for his bright work, the smartphone looks expensive. The options are classic, like the flagships - silver and gold with a white front panel and dark gray with a black front panel.



display

Like its predecessor, the device has a 5.5-inch screen with a separate section of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The smartphone boasts a clear IPS matrix with advanced full lamination technology (without scratching) and a dry glass T2X-1.

The presence of a small rounded edge along the edge of the display adds a point of view to the guest, and on the right, not only in aesthetics, the smooth edge ensures more comfortable fingers during operation, for example, when reading books. It’s quite pleasant to just tactilely feel a smartphone, squeezed into your lap. Those who have previously been allocated this option should appreciate it. The device supports MiraVision 2.0 technology, which enhances image clarity and saves energy.





According to the results of our experiments, brightness changes from 3.7 to 339 cd / m², which differs significantly from the statements of official data, where the maximum brightness is declared at 450 cd / m². The value of the contrast ratio is also not guaranteed, we have 1: 525, and in the specifications 1: 1000. I remember that we tested the pre-sale image and there is little hope that everything will be up to par.

If you don't pay too much attention to the numbers, the screen looks bad. This one has minimal frames, thanks in addition to normal viewing and color transfer. The brightness reserve is increased for comfortable use of the smartphone on a sunny day; there is automatic regulation of the lighting level. There is no smoothness in the work, transitions between stages are abrupt. It is important to remember that the oleophobic coating is very sensitive to the coating - be careful to avoid erasing the coating. Adjusting the screen does not interfere with diversity, but gives you the opportunity to change the color temperature for yourself by setting the values ​​​​for each button.

Operating system and shell

The smartphone runs on Android 5.1 with the proprietary Flyme OS 5.1.3.0G interface. In our case, the shell was not the final version, as a result of which the Google service was not installed, problems with synchronization, and the Calendar app was not working properly. You won’t find any shortcomings in the sales cards that sell for everything, but after purchasing it, you should carefully check the shells to make sure they are working properly. Until the speed of the robot and the smoothness of the interface, the power supply did not fail.

There is no separate menu of add-ons in the shell; the main working space of the user is the desktop, where you can find add-on icons and widgets. At the bottom of the desktop there is a dock that can hold up to four labels or folders.

The menu for managing desktop settings can be accessed with a “pinch” gesture or by tapping on any other area of ​​the screen. It comes down to three points: method, Trellis and Widgets. The first one allows you to easily move and sort shortcuts, the other allows you to change the wallpaper on your desktop, the third allows you to add installed or third-party widgets to your desktop.

The multitasking menu can be accessed by swiping from the bottom edge of the screen. In the shell there is a curtain connected to the panel of switches, which is drawn by a traditional gesture - swiping down from the top edge of the screen. In addition, adjustments can be made by clicking on the icon on the desktop or in the curtain.

All smartphone settings are divided into 17 groups. Most sections and settings are avoided in native Android - it will be difficult to navigate.

I would like to write a report on the current additions. For example, the gallery may have a lot of setup for photo editing. It’s not Photoshop Lightroom or Snapseed, but you won’t be able to satisfy the majority of users and install additional programs.

Addendum Bezpeka comprehensively checks the system and carries out optimization. Here you can clean up RAM and disk memory, control mobile Internet traffic, use anti-virus protection, adjust energy modes, and much more.

It is impossible to deprive without respect and complete the functional file manager Explorer and the Korisne complex, where a large number of add-ons have been collected, similar to the name of the shortcut.

Multimedia

According to statistical data, close to 60% of consumers now listen to music on their smartphones, and more than half of these consumers regularly listen to the possibility of listening. These tasks require clear processing and presentation of the sound that the artists want. How can I brand Meizu M3 Note?

The smartphone will provide good performance when outputting sound to headphones. Zokrem, the declared signal/noise ratio is 110 dB, and the nonlinear noise ratio is 95 dB. These parameters are not the same as for a smartphone.

The external speaker is loud, but the sound is not visible, and so, there is one or the other grille for decoration. Capabilities for encoding and decoding of video images have not changed, decoding of H.264 and H.265 video formats with separate 1080p content at a frame rate of 30 FPS is supported, as well as encoding in H.264 with the same characteristics. There are no problems with Full HD video, the 4K platform does not support, but it plays without any artifacts with little stuttering.

Hardware platform and autonomy

Meizu M3 Note is powered by a MediaTek Helio P10 (MT6755M) processor, which automatically adjusts the frequency of the CPU and GPU to reduce energy consumption while maintaining maximum productivity, sufficient for completing production tasks. 8 Cortex-A53 cores ensure a smooth operation of the interface, as well as the expansion of resource-intensive tasks, for example, 3D games. The Mali-T860 graphics processor is responsible for displaying the optimal picture on the smartphone display.


The GPS is working fine, and everything is fine with the dartless measurements. Communication modules include LTE support, Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n, Bluetooth 4.0 with BLE (Bluetooth low energy) technology. Do not configure the infrared port with NFC, otherwise there are none in the smartphone.

The volume of RAM in the test device is set to 2 GB, otherwise the version is 3 GB. There will be options with 16 GB or 32 GB of internal memory, and it is possible, as already mentioned, to replace one of the NanoSIM cards with MicroSD, thereby expanding the storage capacity.

One of the main features of Meizu M3 Note is the battery with a capacity of 4100 mAg. This could not help but be impressed by its autonomy; you can happily spend two days working with the device in active mode. If you don’t want to use your smartphone for the first time and want to preserve the battery charge, you can quickly set up life management controls and get rid of your smartphone for three days.

cameras

The main camera is 13-megapixel and is equipped with a two-color lens, phase detection autofocus, a 5-element lens with an f/2.2 aperture. We won’t dwell on the interface, there’s plenty of setup, especially the fact that in the photo mode there are manual settings, and that’s a lot.

The specifications are all bad, but what about in practice? We also remember that the people of past generations of smartphone lines did not particularly praise the capabilities of the camera. Unfortunately, the diva passed away and the photographic richness was lost in a weak place.







The photos do not compete with the iPhone 5 (the 5 itself, not the 5s). For regular testing, a smartphone from Apple was taken into account without fail, having chosen its status as “national”, which means that there are a lot of people familiar with it. In addition, the camera module of the iPhone 5 is important to call modern and so in any world the chances are equal. The test is carried out in automatic mode. Surprised, of course, that Meizu plays in dynamic range, detail, and color transfer.














The maximum video size that the camera can capture is 1080p, in full-capture mode, otherwise the capacity makes it difficult to use.

The front camera module is 5-megapixel, it copes well with its tasks and can be combined with high-aperture optics with f / 2.0 aperture values, as well as with the support of Face After Effects and FotoNation technology for enhancement What about Selfie?

pros: Housing materials and assembly, operating hours, productive and energy-efficient platform, availability of a finger scanner, price

cons: Weak photographic possibilities, secondary design

visnovok: Meizu M3 Note is a phablet that combines the price of the budget segment and the characteristics of top-end solutions. I was pleased with the autonomy - this is one of the few “decently cooled” smartphones, if you have one at home, you will not worry about forgetting the charger. The materials and the quality of assembly deserve a high rating, the smartphone is tactile and pleasant to handle, and you don’t want to let it go out of your hands. Meizu, instead of its Chinese competitors, is officially supplied to Ukraine, perhaps with a little greater availability, or the availability of a guarantee and service support for devices from “Pidnebesno” ї” is important. The design and the clarity of the main camera are a little noticeable, but in general the hero can be safely called one of the leading positions in its price segment today.

Looking at the latest Chinese manufacturers of portable electronics, such as laptops and phones, the first company that comes to mind is Xiaomi. Chantly, because it was the first Russian market. Ale is another vendor from the Middle Kingdom. Meizu M3 Note 32GB (as well as 16GB models) is one of the best inexpensive smartphones in 2016, the most balanced in terms of capabilities and price of the rest of the five years.

At the beginning of 2017, the company announced the release date of the M5 Note, which included a couple of minor mini updates, so the new model is economical, and the price is now not the most profitable purchase both in the lighting market as a whole and in the Russian market - zocrema. And also the most popular topic for discussion on popular forums.

Of course, before making such a purchase, to take into account all the pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages, read the instructions in Yandex and, of course, carefully read the description and photo presented them in this material.

Let’s take a full look at the Maisie M3 Notes 32gb and let’s figure out why Russian news is already prophesying this model’s legendary status.

External look

The Meise company will always have its own corporate style. Even before the release of Maisie M3 Notes 32gb (and 16gb), critics often discussed the presence of copying in the new numbers. And it’s easy to recognize the beauty and uniqueness of the company’s smartphones, even though they haven’t changed with the release of new versions.

The front panel of the smartphone often resembles the iPhone. Small frames around the edges of the screen; speaker, camera, animal sensors; hardware button at the bottom. The rest has become a recognized feature of the company's smartphones, both for its functionality.

2,5 D slope, rounded at the edges. It looks hostile until practical craftsmen begin to dryly glue or spit. The stinks physically cannot stick tightly to the edges, which is why long-lasting “smudges” are created throughout the entire surface of the smartphone. This is crazy, minus. If the fragments are slightly protected, due to the aesthetics, you can not be bothered by such methods for protection. More importantly, 2.5D visually changes the dimensions.

On the right side of the smartphone there is a food button and a dial for adjusting the volume. On the right is a hybrid slot for SIM cards. You can insert either two sims, or oneSIM and othermicroSD to increase internal memory.

On the top edge there is a headphone input, on the bottom there is a microSD slot and two symmetrical grilles, behind which there is a speaker and a microphone.

The back panel looks especially stylish. won metaleva, There are small plastic inserts at the top and bottom, separated by antennas.

In the top center there is a chamber and a double bedroom; Below is a mini company logo.

Dimensions for the extension - 153.6 x 75.5 x 8.3 mm, width - 163 g.

The finish is standard: silver and gold with a white front panel and dark gray with black. Elegant black will be appreciated by lovers of classic models. And for those who look too dark when wearing black, there are glamorous gold and stylish silver options. The rest, as judged from searches in Yandex, of the shoes of this model, have already made a purchase, more oriented towards the female part of the audience.

A mobile phone looks much more expensive than 150 dollars.

enter the numbers please

Maisie M3 Note has a processor installed MediaTekHelioP10. graphic quickie Mali-T860. In 2017, these components cannot be brought to the average for the results of the work, which can be used for any task, be it games, work with photos, listening to the radio and other functions, as judged by Dgukiv in Yandex, call It is customary to put more money on the phone than on the laptop.

additionally 3 GB RAM (RAM), The customer selects a smartphone that can be used to run a number of resource-intensive programs and run multi-game games: Asphalt 8, Vainglory, Modern Combat 5.

At Antutudevices are selected up to 50000 points.

If you buy a smartphone exclusively for gambling, then you should pay attention to a more expensive device with shorter technical characteristics, preferably from the same company. Ale, the stinks are starting every hour, M3Note - personal choice will be made in 2017.

The smartphone has it installed 32gb of internal memory (16gb - per line, 16), You can add a microSD card to save data. Only in this case, if you install one SIM card.

display

Screen M3 Notes - the best you can get for a fraction of the price.

Diagonal - 5.5 inches in size,IPS matrix, screen resolutionFullHD, related sides - 403ppi. These numbers are not unambiguous, but it means that everything is programmed using the additional MiraVision 2.0 technology. You can manually adjust the color temperature. Perhaps, all other shortcomings of the model are equally important.

cameras

Continued discussion of the riddle about the technically weakest part of the smartphone. Optical sensors are the most expensive components, so it’s not surprising that the manufacturer wants to save money on them.

The description on the paper is about 13 MP, phase detection autofocus, double-axis and aperturef/2.2.

In practice, the smartphone has an unsatisfactory level of detail, and the color of photos taken in dim light is inaccurate. The video is recorded in Full HD; Slow Motion is moving forward.

5 MP front camera with software chips for enhancing the sweetness of Selfies.

battery

4100 mAg together with an economical chip can guarantee you 2 days at medium temperature. However, if you use more than a laptop or a phone, constantly play games, listen to the radio and watch videos, you should turn off your smartphone all day long. In a gentle mode, with the use of energy-saving programs, you can save energy from 3 to 5 days.

Operating system

Meizu M3 Note works under controls Android 5.1 from an over-the-top company called Flyme OS. Whose mouth will experience renewal.

The Vikon operating system itself is in iOS style. There is no detailed menu here, installed add-ons are displayed on desktops. And in the lower part there is a panel for housing several of the most popular add-ons (for example, photo editors or radio).

The list of remaining add-ons is launched by swiping from the bottom. After this, you can try both other processes and completely clear the memory.

Description of the current Meizu add-ons:

  • "Gallery" includes editing tools;
  • “Security” controls the consumption of internal memory and the use of operative memory. Indicates the operating modes of the battery;
  • “Explorer”, which has a wide range of file management capabilities;
  • “Korisne” adds elements that are not necessary for a mobile device, such as a compass, rhubarb, ruler, and magnifying glass.

You definitely need to watch the video review of this OS to understand how special it will be for you to work with it. Even if you put a curtain on the launcher, adjust the panel, you cannot change the style of the installed add-ons.

reshta

The Meizu company has a famous tradition of installing audio chips in smartphones. There is no such thing in the M3 Note, but the sound quality is above average. It's much better to listen through headphones. And the speaker, no matter how loud, is not suitable for lovers of bright music.

On the surface of the material, the hardware button of a smartphone was guessed. Vaughn plays such an important role, which is known as the name - mTouch 2.1. The peculiarity is that the generator contains a number of functions:

  • fingerprint sensor for Unlocking with your finger;
  • touch surface, the slight pressure on it indicates the action “back”;
  • I will press the button to turn to the desktop.

The dimensions of the button are very comfortable for any professional user.

NFC daily.

Supported by OTG. You can use it to connect bears, flash drives, and external hard drives.

The characteristics of the connection are consistent with the 2017 birth. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth of the last generation. Mobile connection - 4G (LTE).

The package includes a smartphone, adapter, USB cable, mini-instructions for use. There are no headphones, no covers.

SAR indicators (potential coefficient of absorption of electromagnetic energy): 0.417 W / kg (head) and 0.893 W / kg (body).

Hydration and shortcomings

pros:

  • external appearance;
  • select barley (black black, gold and silver)
  • hardware platform;
  • display;
  • autonomy;
  • sound;
  • price.

cons:

  • cameras;
  • hybrid card slot;
  • long process of updating the OS.

visnovki

Meizu M3 Note is one of the best budget Android devices of the last few years, which will definitely become legendary in no time.

Having placed the technical parameters into the beautiful case of the table, which can be sewn for the production of 99.9% of the goods, and having already set a similar price tag, Meisie not only helped to turn the market around, but also made it clear that everything is possible.

Following Xiaomi and Huawei, Meizu presented a budget device with a typical set of characteristics for the middle segment. Moreover, the Chinese went further and equipped the new smartphone with basic parameters that are also characteristic of their flagship. And the price is very low (especially for China at the start of sales). I'm amazed at what Meizu M3 Note is like.

Design and materials of the case

The name M3 Note reminds Meizu MX5 and Pro 5, the flagships of the past. Tactilely, the device is also similar to these models: the back is made of metal and the volume (2.5D) is sloped, which makes the smartphone feel expensive. So, there are plastic inserts on top and below, but they are coated in a metal color and do not wear out. So, in terms of design and implementation of the device, Meizu was able to play on the same level as Xiaomi and Huawei with Redmi Note 3 and Honor 5X, and perhaps even better. This is the nutritional advantage that you are entitled to for the equipment. The menu in the Meizu M3 Note is befitting of elegant simplicity and unpretentious design, neat and without unnecessary details. І “approval” from Apple, which is not a big deal for some, but a plus for others.

The colors are the same as the flagships - silver and gold with a white color front panel and dark gray with a black color front panel. No bright twists, just classic variations.

Dimensions

The dimensions of the Meizu M3 Note are equal to the MX5 and other smartphones with a 5.5 "screen diagonal." I can’t call him compact among his classmates, and he’s not on the larger side - he’s a typical average in this category based on size. The device is not more powerful, which makes us happy with the battery capacity of 4100 mAg.

controls

In terms of basic control elements, the Meizu M3 Note is in no way different from its predecessors. The storage and flexibility buttons are right-handed, there is a tray for two SIM cards (or a SIM card and a memory card), a microUSB connector, a microphone and speaker grilles at the bottom (one of them is decorative), as well as a 3.5 mm mini-jack beast.

Meizu paid attention to the fact that previously many elements on the bodies of their smartphones were arranged asymmetrically, and in the M3 Note this was slightly corrected. Symmetrical camera heads and light/proximity sensors, symmetrical speakers and screws. Moreover, through such parts the device looks more neat than the M2 Note.

Although the flexibility of the M3 Note is important compared to the current model, it’s still not the same. The device now has a finger scanner, which is included in the mechanical key, which also changes the role of the “Back” button to the touch ball. The button is manual, it is present in the Meizu MX4 Pro, MX5, Pro 5 and M1 Metal smartphones. And now in M3 Note.

screen

The device has a screen with a diagonal of 5.5 "" and a separate 1920x1080 pixels based on an IPS matrix. A display with maximum visual clarity, a good supply of brightness and close to natural color reproduction. If you want to know about the remaining parameter, I’ll tell you right away, the screen is like this in Xiaomi Redmi Note 3: the smartphone displays a picture that is not enough, a little bit. But in general, for an inexpensive device, the display is simply brilliant.

By the way, the screen is more beautiful than that of the Meizu M2 Note, not only in terms of the brightness and clarity of the picture, but also because of its vicorized glass and especially oleophobic coating. In this regard, the M3 Note is even better than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and most other competitors. Apparently, Meizu took to heart the criticism of the poor oleophobic coating in the M2 Note, and in the current device in the line they simply modified the panel on the Pro 5. This is how it seems to work out.

Platform, memory

The smartphone is available on one of the new platforms from the Taiwanese company Mediatek - Helio P10. This is not a top-end chip, but for FullHD, a device in the budget segment is a good option. Mali T860 graphics. The smartphone has 2/3 GB of RAM and 16/32 GB of storage. A slot for a microSD memory card, connected to another slot for a SIM card. You can also install two nanoSIM cards.

Camera

Both cameras, both the main one and the front one, did not show any changes in the characteristics compared to the cameras in the Meizu M2 Note. Apparently, the photo quality in the new M3 Note is approximately the same. I won’t describe any features; after all, we have an inexpensive smartphone in front of us, just look at the attached photo and judge for yourself.

I will also note that, like all other devices from Meizu, there is still a manual capture mode (which is good), as well as those that the interface previously cannot be rotated to landscape orientation (which is bad).

interfaces

Among most budget devices (including the M2 Note), the new Meizu M3 Note has two features. First of all, there is support for dual-band Wi-Fi; otherwise, the device supports VoLTE. In 4G modes, the smartphone works in all wider ranges for Russia. Bluetooth version 4.0 with support for the LE (Low Energy) profile.

battery

Perhaps the main feature of the Meizu M3 Note is the battery with a capacity of 4100 mAg. Here we can say thank you to the Xiaomi company, which Meizu respects as its main competitors, and even by equipping its Redmi Note 3 with a 4000 mAg battery, they gave Meizu a sign - “the need to work this way or better.” I don’t know how to show myself the device after an hour of work in reality, but such battery capacity inspires optimism. A purchase with non-top characteristics (platform, screen resolution) can allow the device to operate for two days in active mode.

Flyme

The smartphone runs on Android 5.1 with the Flyme 5.1 proprietary interface. It’s surprising that the company hasn’t switched the device to Android 6.0, but Meizu plans to introduce a big update to its Flyme interface very soon and make a big announcement from it. I don’t want any other explanation.

The shell - Flyme, with its well-known rich logical interface “like in iOS”, is beautiful, neat, and not overdone. Some people deserve it, others cannot tolerate it, this is a food advantage.

visnovok

In China, the first batch of Meizu M3 Note will be sold at a price of 800 and 1,000 yuan for 2/16 and 3/32 GB versions separately. If we go back a few steps and see what prices the company set for its new products in line with its main competitor, Xiaomi, we can see that similar smartphones from Meizu were always more expensive at the start of sales. This time the situation is different, and at the same time, as it seems, it is an indication of the “Promotional” publicity at the price presentation. Otherwise, the device will be comparable to the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, which, at its Chinese price, looks like an attractive proposition.

The price for Russia is still unknown, perhaps the price will be in the range of 16,000 to 18,000 rubles, maybe lower, maybe higher, here I’m just trying to guess. Official sales in Russia will start approximately in Travna.


After Xiaomi presented its Redmi Note 3, I really doubted the ability of Meizu to show something close to this level. Xiaomi has a very strong product. However, Meizu was able to perform on the same level and seem to be ahead of its main competitor. The main feature of the M3 Note is the design and materials of the body. This is a surprise, if the company decided not to just take the metal from the smartphone, but created it in a very clear and thoughtful way: 2.5D glass, elegantly oleophobic coating, like on the flagship, neatly thin lines of antennas , symmetry in small elements - it’s all about stopping the enemies. In other words, Meizu M3 Note is a “middle peasant” in the Chinese world at a budget price.

P.S. Besides the smartphone, the Meizu company introduced new headphones - Meizu EP51 with plastic arms for fixation in place and magnetic stripes on the bodies for fastening one to one and manual transfer. The headphones look good, but if they appear in Russia, it is still unknown.

On the 6th of April in Beijing, MEIZU presented the first smartphone from the new line of devices for 2016 - the metal MEIZU M3 NOTE. The new product is an update of the incredibly successful MEIZU M2 NOTE, sales since last summer amounted to more than two dozen million devices, and added significant growth!

MEIZU M3 NOTE is a further rethinking of the “M” line of smartphones, at an affordable price, from MEIZU. “The hour to deprive polycarbonate is in the past”, as evidenced by the announcement of the presentation of the new product. MEIZU M3 Note has a completely metal body, similar to the older MEIZU models of yesteryear, including MEIZU MX5 and MEIZU PRO 5. And the manual touch-mechanical multi-functional mBack key has acquired an accurate and quick finger scanner iv, having evolved in mTouch 2.1. As before, using the button you can use the button to activate the “back” action, with short presses you can turn to the main screen, and trival - turn off the display of the device. With the help of a finger scanner, you can block access not only to the device itself, but also to any additional accessories in it, including those you have installed specifically. Don’t you want third parties to be unable to deny access to your post, gallery, or for children to play games without drinking? Just set up their launch just on your finger, it’s that simple!



Like MEIZU M2 NOTE, the new smartphone has a hybrid slot for two Nano-SIM cards. Both slots support operation with LTE and VoLTE technology, and instead of the other slot, you can insert a microSD memory card up to 128 GB, expanding the built-in memory of the device.

MEIZU M3 NOTE has a bright 5.5 "touch display with a separate FullHD display, with the traditionally high image quality for MEIZU smartphones, protected by a glass with a 2.5D effect. The “heart” of the smartphone has become new This chip is from MediaTek Helio P10: 8-core 64-bit processor with a frequency of up to 1.8 GHz.
