Meizu 21 Note

Despite Meizu's announcement of quitting the smartphone business, yet another upcoming phone has appeared online. A Meizu 21 Note with three cameras surfaced, one of which has a 50 MP sensor. The device will have at least two different colors, according to live images, both with a similar wavy effect on the back.

This is the first time Meizu uses a camera island where the trio of shooters is aligned in a triangle formation. What is more interesting is that we are seeing the Note moniker reappear for the first time since the Meizu Note 9, launched in March 2019. The series was popular with its big screen, but with the way the smartphone market has evolved the Meizu 21 Note might bring a different selling point.

The company CEO, Shen Ziyu, previously confirmed plans for the FlymeOS team to move away from mobile devices and be restructured to develop new AI terminal devices using globally available LLM (large language models) such as Open AI.

This year, the company is expected to launch a new mobile OS tailored for the AI era. It should be compatible with cars such as Polestar, Volvo, and Lotus, since they are all part of the Geely portfolio, the company that also owns Meizu.
