China’s Meizu only announced their latest flagship (or so we think), the MX4 less than a week back at an event in Beijing. The octa-core MT6595 device was announced with some interesting tech — including a 5.4-inch 5:3 display and a 20.7 mega-pixel Sony sensor — for a Chinese equivalent of just about US$293.
However, like some believed, there appear to be more than just version of the MX4. The one that just got its specs sheet leaked is believed to be the Meizu MX4 Pro. What’s changed from the MX4 is:
- Screen: the size is the same at 5.4 inches, but the resolution is now a hefty 2502 x 1536 pixels
- Processor: the MediaTek MT6595 is replaced by the Exynos 5430
- RAM: 2GB of RAM makes way for a massive 4GB
- Front camera: 2 mega-pixel front snapper makes way for 13 mega-pixel sensor
With those specifications, the MX4 Pro truly looks like a flagship that could trump the best in the business. Frankly, the MX4 that we saw on the 2nd this month really didn’t have the oomph to sway buyers its way, save for the tempting price. It will be interesting to see what sort of a price tag the MX4 Pro gets!
