Meizu MX6 start: a bigger PRO6, a balanced utility

In the first half of the public charm blue and PRO mobile phone, the original belongs to Meizu single pass MX series ushered in the sixth generation of models, MX6.

Among the many models of Meizu, the MX series is in the middle, and there is a flagship configuration of the PRO series. Under the lower price of the Charm Blue series, the positioning is somewhat embarrassing. How to weigh the configuration and the selling price is undoubtedly a science. In this case, Meizu PRO6 is not so PRO, the existence of MX6 has become a standard image of Meizu is the mid-range machine.

Standard midrange configuration

In addition to last year's Meizu PRO5, in fact, Meizu's equipment has always been not the most flagship configuration known, fortunately Meizu's target users are not "do not obey a running point" of the absolute parameters of the party.

The Meizu MX6 that was introduced in the second half of the year is not a mad heap configuration machine. As a whole, this device does not exceed the requirements but requires enough configuration collocation thinking:

MTK Helio X20 Ten Core Processor

4GB memory, 32GB storage

5.5 1080p screen

Rear 12 million, front 500 million pixel camera

3060mAh battery, 12V 2A charger

Netcom 6-mode 18-band, dual-band WiFi

Pre-fingerprint recognition, up to 0.2 seconds

Dual Nano-SIM card

Yes, there is no Snapdragon 820, no 2K curved screen, no 6GB memory, but the price below the 2000 do not want too much, anyway, this configuration is easy to use with no problem. And after Flyme reached 5.0, the overall stability and ease of use are still pretty good. The home button interaction with mBack personally believes that it is much easier than the traditional Android three kings.

Last year, the MX5 did not have a fast charging solution. This time it was finally on the MX6. The charger's specifications were exactly the same as that of the PRO6. The official claimed that it was charged to 25% in 10 minutes and filled in 75 minutes. After actual measurement, the official did not brag, but the high-pressure fast charge, the heat is definitely more than 5V 2A heat, so in the summer, it is recommended not to put on the bed and other places with poor heat conditions to charge.

Meizu conference this year's machines are used MTK processor, which is not good news for performance control, Helio X20 this processor is said to be the first ten nuclear processor, but the performance is difficult to be called the flagship, from the high pass The Xiaolong 820 still has a gap. It is enough to run up from 70,000 to 80,000. It is enough to use more than enough, and the flagship is insufficient. The X25 used by the PRO6 is worse than the X25.

Others such as 4GB memory, 1080p screen are the mainstream with the industry, omitted from the table.

Appearance: Filled PRO6

Although the psychological preparation of MX6 and PRO6 has long been completed, when opening the box, it still can not help but sigh, Meizu should recruit more industrial designers.

Yes, from the outside, the difference between the front MX6 and PRO6 is almost the size. The former is a 5.5-inch screen and the latter is 5.2 inches. However, after a closer look, you can still see that the MX6's border is slightly wider, and the Home button is the same size as the PRO6, so the chin is slightly enlarged.

The difference between the back of the MX6 and the PRO6 is not only the size, but also the PRO6's ring strobe and laser focusing elements are more recognizable, while the MX6's back is much more mundane. Of course, the antenna design of these two machines is similar, and this kind of antenna technology that Meizu calls it “Samurai One Blade” is likely to be similar to the iPhone 7 series released this year. I have to say that the lack of a leucorrhea makes the back of the phone more pleasing to the eye.

Even if the appearance is not very different from the PRO, the feeling of getting it is not the same.

The PRO6 weighs 160 grams and the MX6 weighs 155 grams. Yes, you read it correctly. The MX6 is bigger, yet lighter. So the MX6 is completely without the PRO6's "pressing hand" feeling. If you take 192 grams of iPhone 6s Plus, you will even feel that the MX6 feels light.

Of course, what the ratio of size and weight is best is an undecided matter. The pressure felt by the PRO6 is felt by many people to be very practical, but if the MX6 maintains the same size and weight ratio as the PRO6, it will be about 200 grams, even if Without advice, the pants pocket will be unhappy.

Several details in the study of mobile phones, such as the border cutting process, sandblasting process, the gap between the slot and the fuselage, the degree of looseness of the button, the MX6 is considered more carefully. Even if the current X20 + 4GB memory phone can be sold for thousands of yuan, but I believe the cost of MX6 spent on the fuselage above is not low, which is why MX6 can not do fanatic price-performance believers, the pursuit of craft still have to .

Basically, the visual quality of the MX6 and PRO6 is similar. The only difference is that the sand blasting process of the PRO6 seems to be better than the MX6. After all, the sand blasting process of the PRO6 is the closest to the iPhone in the domestic machine. The sandblasting of the MX6 actually does not look the same as the PRO6 on the naked eye. After getting started, the difference is felt. The PRO6's friction is more pronounced.

Because the MX6 shell is thinner than the PRO6, and the back sandblasting is smoother, it feels a little empty inside the body. This feeling also exists on the Huawei P9. So compared to it, the MX6 is more like a gas-filled PRO6, not just a big one, but also light and empty on the touch.

Meizu to take the best cell phone?

Will the 21-megapixel camera from PRO6 and the 12-megapixel camera in MX6 shrink again? Not necessarily, the S7 edge and the iPhone 6s Plus are both 12 million pixels, which does not prevent them from becoming the top-level imaging mobile phone.

The MX6's 12-megapixel camera comes in handy, using the Sony IMX386 CMOS, single-pixel 1.25 micron. The Sony IMX386 CMOS is the evolution of the IMX286, and the IMX286 is used on the Huawei P9.

In order to show that this device is powerful, the Meizu vice president Li Nan also posted proofs in advance. This amazing proof is like this:

Obviously, Li Nan's proofs are probably the upper limit of the MX6's ability to photograph, reselected from thousands of photographers. At this time, someone is required to act as a lower limit, oh no, someone is testing the lower limit of the picture, so this person is me.

Due to the rainy weather in Beijing, there was no particularly good outdoor light conditions, so look at the nightscape and colors.

In this set of proofs, the performance of the MX6 is better than that of the PRO6. For example, the red light spot on the left side of the dark building is successfully captured by the MX6, while the PRO6 has only a few white highlights. In addition, the PRO6 is highlighted in the middle because the light pollution profile is not as sharp as the MX6. As for the dark details and brightness, the MX6 is also a little better than the PRO6.

This group has joined the iPhone 6s as a reference player, where the advantages and disadvantages of the MX6 are equally prominent. The advantage is that the screen brightness is high, the disadvantage is that the noise is touching. In addition, the focus of the three photos is on the second floor from the right, but neither the MX6 nor the PRO6 has the sharp iPhone 6s.

In terms of color, the performance of the MX6 is significantly better than that of the PRO6. For example, the orange flap in the above picture is obviously brighter, and the red watermelon block is also brighter.

On the whole, this time the MX6's photographing is slightly better than that of the PRO6. The lead is not large. Compared to other domestic flagships and even international flagships, more proofs and scenes are needed to support it.

Compared with the MX4 and MX5, this generation MX6 has an increase of 200 yuan to 1999 yuan. According to Meizu’s announcement at the conference, this generation of MX6 has redefined Meizu's MX brand. No longer insisted on the price performance of the previous two generations, MX6 is no longer the name of the flagship, balanced enough to use the MX6 can be sold in 1999, perhaps confirms a statistical speculation: domestic mobile phone prices secretly.
