The latest reports from China do indeed suggest that Meizu is currently working on another device equipped with – yet again –
a secondary display on its back.
What’s different from the previous Meizu Pro 7 is
that the new phone does not sport a rectangular screen but instead a rounded
one, with the default image showing up being a clock dial.
The machine’s internal code is “99” and it sports a
good looking eight-curved surface design, the display at the front also appears
to be curved, and it’s said to be powered by a Samsung Exynos 8890 flagship
processor, no MediaTek this time around.
In all honesty, this seems to be an older prototype
that didn’t manage to go into its final stages, probably due to the high
production costs – adding a screen on the back isn’t cheap – and the low demand for such a device. The
main give away are the 16:9 display aspect ratio and the single rear camera,
this phone cannot be released in 2018 as it is.
