I thought that Helio P20 would make its debut at Meizu's press conference today, but it is still Helio P10. Meizu seems to have gradually infiltrated this MTK midrange processor into every corner of Meilan mobile phones, while Helio X20/X25 has infiltrated into Meizu MX and PRO series. On the other hand, Helio P10's position in Meilan mobile phones has gradually improved. At first, it was only used in Meilan note3, a mobile phone with a price of less than 1000 yuan, but now it has risen to the price of 1699 yuan of Meilan Max. Meilan Max is still the traditional Meilan family face, the IMX258 sensor, the high-capacity battery and fingerprint identification module. What's the new highlight? See below.
We made a horizontal comparison of six models in total: Meilan metal, Meilan metal telecom version, Meilan note3, Meilan E, Meilan U20 and Meilan Max. It has to be said that since Meilan series used metal body and fingerprint identification in October last year until today's Meilan Max, the whole Meilan series has not changed much. ( PS: The price is the initial price )
1. Meilan Max has the largest screen, the most expensive price, the largest ROM capacity and the only 24W fast charging model among Meilan mobile phones. However, the screen lacks the LTPS process and 2.5D radian of Meilan metal and Meilan note3.
2. Helio P10 basically monopolizes Meilan series mobile phones released this year, except Meilan 3, Meilan 3s and other models.
3. Although Meilan series models are generally 13 million pixel main cameras, equipped with F2.2 aperture and supporting phase focusing technology, only Meilan Max and Meilan E explicitly pointed out on Meizu's official website that IMX258 sensors are used, which is actually the phase focusing version of IMX214. In addition, the main camera of Xiaomi 4c, Xiaomi 4S and 360 N4 also uses the sensor IMX258.
4. Meilan E and Meilan Max are the only two models in Meilan series that support mCharge technology.
5. Meizu U20 and Meizu U10 are the only two Meizu mobile phones with double-sided 2.5D glass body.
6. Meizu official website clearly points out that only Meilan Max and Meilan E can support Alipay and WeChat fingerprint payment at the same time. In principle, other Meilan phones equipped with fingerprint identification modules can obtain this function through system upgrade. However, because they all use Alibaba YunOS, the possibility of supporting WeChat will be relatively low in the future.
In addition to the differences among peers, consumers must be very concerned about the competitiveness between Meilan Max, Nubia Z11 Max and Xiaomi Max, and we also summarized a table:( PS: The price is the initial price )
We take the highest configuration version of each of the three models as an example to compare. In terms of performance, Nubia and Xiaomi will undoubtedly crush Magic Max. From the past scores of Anthare, we can see that Helio P10 is not competing against Snapdragon 652 or Snapdragon 650. In terms of display effect, nubia adopts this year's mainstream AMOLED screen, while both nubia and Xiaomi Max have introduced 2.5D curved protective screen, while Meilan Max has only GFF fitting technology. Xiaomi Max has the top configuration of 4GB RAM+128GB ROM. Consumers with storage pressure can basically put down their minds.
In terms of front camera pixels, nubia Z11 Max is slightly better. Although both nubia Z11 Max and Xiaomi Max have 16 million pixels in the main camera, the former explicitly uses IMX298, a sensor widely used on this year's flagship machine, and even Xiaomi Mobile Phone 5 and nubia Z11 also use this sensor. Xiaomi Max does not specify the sensor supplier on the official website. Although Xiaomi Max has the largest battery capacity, Meilan Max's 24W fast charging technology has undoubtedly crushed the other two models.
Although both are metal bodies and support fingerprint recognition, Meilan Max natively supports Alipay and WeChat fingerprint payment functions, while nubia Z11 Max fingerprint recognition module did not support WeChat payment at the beginning, and it is compatible after system upgrade. As for Xiaomi Max, Xiaomi officially said that it will launch Xiaomi Pay this month, and the fingerprint payment function of WeChat and Alipay will also be upgraded and popularized through MIUI 8 system for most models.
In terms of bonus items, nubia Z11 Max has introduced Qualcomm's WCD9335 codec, which, together with Dolby sound effect and Smart PA external sound effect, can bring it a good Hi Fi experience. Xiaomi Max integrates the infrared remote control function, and can intelligently manipulate household appliances.
In addition to Meilan Max, today's press conference also launched a Meizu leisure travel backpack, which costs 199 yuan. Yijia has launched similar products before, and it is estimated that more mobile phone manufacturers will cross the border to compete in the field of daily necessities.
