Meizu M9: Top-Class Android Smartphone for $ 375

Some two years ago, no one took Meizu seriously. - Regular upstarts who want to create a new oPhone / SkyPhone ?, skeptics grumbled. However, in February 2009, the Meizu M8 was released, the device that was superior to the iPhone 3G in terms of technical specifications, and in terms of the modification of Windows CE / Mobile could only be compared with HTC. The user interface for the Meizu M8 was developed by EICO Design, which had a hand in creating TouchFLO 3D.



The drawbacks of the M8 were obvious: the lack of a good base of high-quality applications, the instability of the firmware, the complete absence of GPS. However, time does not stand still and on December 25 of this year the new smartphone of the Meizu M9 company comes out.





The Meizu M9, like the Galaxy S smartphones, is based on the System-On-Chip Samsung-Intrinsity S5PC110. This SoC includes a 1 GHz CPU Hummingbird architecture of Cortex-A8, a hi-end graphics processor PowerVR SGX 540, a FPU NEON SIMD block, 512 KB of L2 cache.



One of the key features of the new product is a 3.5 "display with a resolution of 960x640 pixels, which is rumored to be produced by Sharp using AVS technology (a comparison with the iPhone 4 is available here ). In addition, the smartphone boasts a 5 megapixel camera with the ability to record 720P HD video, batteries for 1370 mAh, 8/16 GB microSD card, which will be bundled and support a huge number of different audio and video formats. The number of RAM and ROM is not reported.

Judging by the texture, the back surface is made of soft-touch plastic and is somewhat like the HTC HD mini. The smartphone may seem thick, but in fact it has rather modest dimensions of 59.8 × 113.0 × 11.2 mm.



Meizu M9 runs on Android 2.2 with a customized interface.











The cost of the Meizu M9 in the local market is about 2500RMB, or $ 375. Meizu is not planning to expand into the international market yet, so everyone will be able to buy a phone only thanks to eBay (the predicted price is $ 400- $ 450).



The technical characteristics of the M9 can be a serious competitor to the glossy Galaxy S, Nexus S, and HTC Desire. The benefit of the S5PC110's performance is enough for the year ahead, the Tegra 2 tests only confirm this.



Supported video formats: AVI, MP4, 3GP, MOV, MKV, FLV.

Supported audio formats: FLAC, APE, MP3, OGG, AMR, AAC.
