Meizu Note 9 could be the first Meizu phone to
release in 2019. Meizu CEO Jack Wong has been sharing vital information on the
smartphone on Meizu’s official forum site. A render of the Meizu Note 9 has
also been shared by netizens on the forum.
The below render shows that the Meizu Note 9 could
be the first phone from the company to feature a display with waterdrop notch.
The size of the display could be 6.3 inches. The handset will be running on
Android 9 Pie OS along with Meizu’s latest Flyme UI. The leak does not reveal the rear
design of the phone. It is speculated that the handset may not feature a
rear-mounted fingerprint reader. It is tipped to feature a side-mounted
fingerprint sensor.
The smartphone will be featuring 48-megapixel camera
lens as the primary sensor in its dual camera setup. It may feature the Samsung
GM1 camera sensor which is available on smartphones like Samsung Galaxy A8s and
the recently announced Redmi Note 7. The camera sensor is inferior to Sony
IMX586 48-megapixel sensor since it can capture 48-megapixel photos in HD mode
by interpolation.
The Meizu Note 9 is confirmed to feature Snapdragon
6150. According to recent reports, Snapdragon 6150 is the codename of the
Snapdragon 675. In the recent past, a Meizu phone with model number M923Q was
spotted on the database of China’s 3C body. The handset will be packed with a
4,000mAh battery.
It appears that the Meizu Note 9 could be Meizu’s
weapon to take on the Redmi Note 7. The Redmi Note 7 is available with a
starting price of 999 Yuan. Meizu may also sell the Note 9 with the same
starting price. As far as the launch date of the smartphone is concerned, it is
speculated that the company may make it official after the Spring Festival
which will be observed on Feb. 5 in 2019.
