Meizu MX4 to Sell for P14,999, MT6595 & 20.7 MP Camera in Tow

Inarguably the best handset Chinese smartphone company Meizu has announced, the Meizu MX4 apparently is set to hit the Philippines at the end of October via local company Novo 7 Tech. The device looks like its predecessor, the MX3, but the similarities stop there.


Among the highlights of the device is its high benchmark score, thanks to its new MT6595 octa-core processor, specifically scoring as high as over 40,000 in AnTuTu (though performance on other benchmark apps vary. If there was a tweak done specifically for AnTuTu, we're unable to tell), and its 20.7-megapixel Sony Exmor RS camera - the sensor used by Sony in their top-of-the line devices (sadly, the front-facing camera is only 2-megapixels).

The Meizu MX4 16GB variant sells for P14,999, while the 32GB is priced at P16,999. There's no pricing released for the 64GB variant. On a personal note, if there's one thing I'm sure of, the local smartphone crowd will find choices tough as they pick from other strong-name brands such as Xiaomi this holiday season.
