The M1 note was launched in China back in December 2014 for around $160, and was touted as an iPhone 5C clone by some people within the industry. Although Meizu is relatively new to the smartphone OEM space, it has managed to do quite well in China taking on the biggies like Xiaomi, Huawei and Lenovo. They follow similar business strategy as Xiaomi, by pricing their products competitively and cutting down the costs on marketing by taking the social media and forum routes.
Meizu M1 Note Specs
The Meizu M1 Note comes with a 5.5-inch Full HD (1080p) display and has a polycarbonate unibody design. From whatever little hands on we got sometime back, we can safely say that the build quality of Meizu M1 Note is amongst the best we have seen in this price segment. The phone is powered by a MediaTek 64-bit MT6752 octa-core processor clocked at 1.7GHz. There’s a 13MP camera on the rear with CMOS sensor made by Samsung. M1 Note supports dual SIM with one of them supporting 4G LTE (FD-LTE only). A 3140mAh battery should ensure sufficient backup.
