A leaked live shot of the alleged Meizu Note 9 has
surfaced on Weibo. According to Reameizu that was first to spot the image
claims that the Meizu Note 9 is codenamed as Mikuho. The leaked image confirms
that the smartphone is fueled by Snapdragon 675 chipset and it will be arriving
with a waterdrop-style notch screen.
The leaked shot of the alleged Meizu Note 9 reveals
that it features a smaller notch compared to other phones with waterdrop notch
screens. Including the chin, the smartphone is equipped with slimmer bezels.
Rumors have it that the phone could be equipped with a 6.3-inch display that
supports full HD+ resolution.
The About Phone page on the device reveals that it
is fueled by Snapdragon 6150 which is the codename of the new Snapdragon 675
chipset. Meizu CEO Jack Wong had also confirmed at the beginning of this month
that the Meizu Note 9 is powered by Snapdragon 6150. He had also revealed that
the handset is packed with a 4,000mAh battery. The smartphone will be also
equipped with 48-megapixel Samsung ISOCELL GM1 sensor in its rear-mounted dual
camera setup. The smartphone is also expected to feature a side-mounted
fingerprint scanner.

leaked photo of the Note 9 is that it will be a dual-SIM device. Last week, the
Meizu M932Q handset that is believed to be the Meizu Note 9 was approved by
China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (CMIIT) authority. It
is speculated that the phone may debut in China after the country’s Sprint
Festival in February. The handset is expected to release in China with a
starting price of 999 Yuan (US$ 149). Hence, it could be arriving as a worthy
rival for the Redmi Note 7.
