Meizu held a special concert on Halloween on October 31, and broadcast a hard broadcast in the middle - released the latest member of the Meilan family: Meilan 5. Although we usually complain that Meizu is holding a concert when holding a press conference, we didn't expect that this time it was really a concert, and the press conference was the second. Without delay, come and see this "new" machine that has been completely leaked by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Appearance and workmanship
On the outer package, the consistent style of Meilan series is continued. The white packaging box is printed with Meilan 5 on the front and the words of "Young Good Product" on the side.
In terms of accessories, there are chargers, data cables, instructions, warranty certificates and pins. There are factory protective films on the front and back of the Meilan 5, which are all black front panels. The charger is 5V/1.5A since there is no fast charging for Meilan 5.
There is really no surprise in appearance, full of Meizu elements. To tell you the truth, putting Meilan family together now can make the author change into face blindness. Except for the difference in size, it feels like the same. But I have to admit that the 2.5D glass with a round shape has a good overall grip.
The layout of the keys is also unchanged. The right side is the volume key and the power key. The SIM card slot is arranged on the left side, which supports all Netcom. Mobile Telecom Unicom has no pressure.
The interface at the bottom is totally unexpected, microUSB、 It is also expected that the latest USB Type-C will not be used as a low-end machine of Meizu, with speakers, microphones and 3.5mm headphone holes.
There is no change in the shape of the round waist Home key. The function of the key is the same as that of Meizu's new machine, which is equipped with mTouch. It supports WeChat/Alipay fingerprint payment. The touch of pressing is the same as that of other Meizu models.
The biggest feature of Magenta Blue 5 is that it uses polycarbonate plastic body and handles different colors separately. For example, the white model is evenly sprayed at high temperature, the mint green and sapphire blue are added with "pearlescent powder" to achieve different gloss, and the legendary frosted black seems to be different. So the white model is a high gloss ordinary plastic, while the gold model looks closer to the metallic luster.
System experience
Meilan 5 system is equipped with Flyme based on YunOS 5.1.1, which can be simply understood as Android 6.0. There are not many pre installed software, and most apps are also very practical. Meizu's Flyme system is familiar to everyone. Due to the performance of the processor, the response speed of Meizu 5 is average, and it is not stuck but not smooth. The speed of fingerprint recognition is good, similar to that of iPhone, and the experience is good.
The processor mentioned just now, Meilan 5 still continues the love between Meizu and MediaTek. It is equipped with MT6750: a combination of eight core A53 at the highest frequency of 1.5GHz, 2/3GB RAM+16/32GB ROM. The 6GB+64GB previously exposed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology does not exist. The 5.2 inch 720P screen has a PPI of 282. It looks good, and there will be some pixels when you look closely.
We have simply carried out some run point tests for your reference, including Entertainment Rabbit and GeekBench 3, as well as the read-write of built-in ROM. For a low-end machine, such achievements are reasonable, and there is no surprise. As for the objective performance of photography and screen, it will be revealed in the detailed evaluation.
summary
MT6750、 The selling prices of Meilan and 699/899 are the same as Meizu's previous Meilan 3s. The difference between Meilan 3s and Meilan 5 is that Meilan 3s use metal body, while Meilan 5 is made of plastic material. Maybe Meilan 5 should be regarded as the plastic version of Meilan 3s. It can be said that, as a new machine, Meilan 5 has no exciting and surprising place in terms of configuration, shape or price, just like Meizu poured boiled water on us. For Meizu machines at this price, consumers only need to consider whether they prefer metal or plastic.
