Recently, Meizu unveiled its last traditional smartphone and a groundbreaking transition to its All in AI strategy, the Meizu 21 Pro. Judging from the specifications, the new product has reached the pinnacle in the history of Meizu mobile phones in all aspects. So, this 4999 yuan, the perfect end to the Meizu smartphone era, can you still buy it?
Meizu 21 Pro continues the ID design style of Meizu 21, aluminum alloy frame, the main difference is that the screen is larger, changed to a 16:9 display ratio, the rear three-camera star ring has become a four-star ring, retains the characteristic AICY smart ring, and upgrades Meizu Titan Glass 20, also added IP68 dust and waterproof support, but the weight has also reached a maximum of 214G, which has a slightly pressed feel.
The machine is available in four colors: Meizu White, Starry Night Black, Glacier Blue and Laurel Green, of which Meizu White has a better white frame design, and the back cover of Laurel Green is silicone, which is slightly lighter (208g).
The configuration of the Meizu 21 Pro is also good, equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen3 mobile platform, LPDDR5X memory + UFS40 flash memory forms the performance iron triangle, supplemented by a 4651 square millimeter VC vapor chamber.
At the same time, it is also equipped with a large X-axis vibration motor, a master-level ultra-linear three-dimensional double Yang, and it is also the only mobile phone in the current Android field that still insists on using wide-area ultrasonic under-screen fingerprints. Built-in 5050mAh large battery, support 80W wired and 50W wireless flash charging.
As a [small factory] in the field of mobile phones, Meizu 21 Pro is mainly inferior to first-line brand flagships at the same price in terms of image. The product has three rear cameras, which are the 50 million pixel main camera (OV50H), 1 13-inch outsole, f19 aperture, support OIS optical image stabilization. A 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with macro support, and a 10-megapixel telephoto lens with support for 3X optical zoom and OIS.
It can be seen that the lens quality of Meizu 21 Pro is relatively average, lacking periscope telephoto, and Meizu's imaging algorithm comes from ArcSoft, rather than the image engine developed by other major manufacturers.
In addition, the Meizu 21 Pro's main AI capabilities are also in the PPT stage for the time being, and the new functions that come with the Flyme AI system, including AI smart keys, AI auxiliary input, AI gallery and AI voice, have not been launched at the time of product release and sale, and need to be realized through OTA in the future.
Meizu's so-called "open AI terminal", the statement of high emotional intelligence, is that Meizu is open to all AI large models, and decided to hand it over to a younger team to do professional things. The low EQ argument is that Meizu does not have enough R&D team and strength, and it really can't handle its own large model, so it provides an open-source AI hardware platform, and everyone picks up firewood.
Therefore, even Meizu itself does not know what level of AI experience Meizu 21 Pro can achieve in the future, and the gap between this and the exclusive AI model that first-line brands are constantly optimizing and polishing, will only get bigger and bigger.
Overall, the Meizu 21 Pro is a more beautiful Android phone, and it has not been afraid of anyone compared to its appearance, and has reached a super-first-class level in terms of performance, materials, speakers, motors, fingerprints, etc. However, there are indeed many deficiencies in the screen quality, lens specifications, imaging algorithms, and AI empowerment on the system side of this machine, and the gap in these aspects will gradually widen due to the continuous system update and optimization of competitors. Therefore, if you are not a senior charmer, I personally do not recommend this machine, 4999 yuan can already buy other brands of super flagships, the latter's comprehensive performance is better. On the other hand, if you have always liked the Meizu brand, this may be the swan song, the strongest and most perfect Meizu mobile phone in history, and it also has a strong collection value.
