Meizu founder Jack Wong revealed the
company is working on a new smartphone dubbed Meizu X8. In addition to the
name, the executive also revealed the device will be powered by the Snapdragon
710 SoC and won't feature an in-display fingerprint sensor.
Now, Wong has revealed more information related to
the phone. He claimed the device will be better than Xiaomi's Mi 8 SE, which -
in case you aren't already aware - is the first smartphone with a Snapdragon
710 chipset.
Finally, the executive also gave away some
pricing-related hints, saying the handset will be priced less than CNY 2,000
(US$ 305). The Mi 8 SE, for comparison, starts at CNY 1,799 (US$ 275)
and goes up to CNY 1,999 (US$ 305). The Meizu X series is said to replace
the Chinese company's MX series, of which the MX6 was the last the device.
