Meizu 17 Pro

Overview Meizu 17 Pro

Android version and market relevance

In May 2020 was announced smartphone Meizu 17 Pro, which did not fall into any series smartphones Meizu, but just located in the directory of smartphones of this manufacturer.

The most important thing you need to know before buying is the version of Android on which the smartphone is launched “out of the box”. And Meizu 17 Pro works on Android 10, that by the way is not so bad as for smartphone of 2020. But here it is still important to know whether this model is updated to a more recent version. Our novelty Meizu 17 Pro, unfortunately, is not updated to any new version of Android. And it′s very sad, so we would advise you to look at other models of smartphones that are called in our catalog DROID-smartphones.

Perhaps it will be important for you that the smartphone was a dualsim. Then we can make you happy, because Meizu 17 Pro works great with two SIM cards. And since 2020, after the official launch of 5G networks, it has become very important for most buyers that the new smartphone has high-speed mobile Internet. Meizu 17 Pro has support for fifth-generation networks, so you can choose it for purchase if it suits you for other characteristics and price.

Screen, body and battery

The most important thing you need to know about the case and form factor Meizu 17 Pro. The body is quite compact and the screen occupies almost all of its area from edge to edge (from 80% to 90% of the area of the case). There is a cutout above the screen to take up even more space on the front of the case. As you have seen in the photo, here is a cutout in the form of a small hole for a selfie camera. On the front side of the case is located huge Super AMOLED-screen with diagonal 6.6″ and with refresh rate 120 Hz. At the same time, a battery with a capacity of 4 500 mAh.

Main camera and selfie camera

A few words about the cameras that have Meizu 17 Pro. The main camera, located on the back, received several modules (smartphones with four cameras): 64 MP Wide + 8 MP Telephoto + 32 MP UltraWide + 0.3 MP TOF 3D camera. And by the way, the camera’s multiple lenses are an interesting feature. What does it give you? Additional modules also take a picture during the «shutter release». And then the smartphone, using special algorithms, processes images from all cameras to optimize and improve the final photo. And with several cameras, you can shoot more interesting photos, for example, with the bokeh effect (this is when the subject in the foreground is in focus, and the background is blurred). The main camera we would rate perfectly for being one of the best cameras on the market.

The frontcamera is also in Meizu 17 Pro. It is located in front of the screen and has one module: 20 MP Wide. These characteristics you will definitely have enough to make your selfie photos in different lighting conditions. This model does not really stand out in terms of body design (in the context of the front camera). Therefore, I would like to tell you that there are smartphones with pop-up front camera. How it works? The front camera is located inside the body and slides up only when you activate the front camera mode. You take a selfie photo or video, exit the «Camera» application and the camera panel begins to slide down into the body. Everything is simple and interesting enough.

Processor and Internal Memory

The more cores the smartphone processor has, the faster it works. Of course, do not forget that the applications should be optimized for the version of Android. But if we are talking about technical characteristics, then the processor here 8-core on the chipset Snapdragon 865. RAM 8 GB, but if you want, you can buy a version of this smartphone on 12 GB of RAM and, perhaps it will work faster.

Built-in memory for storing different data (photo, video, applications, music, etc.) here 128 GB, but there are still options for 256 GB. You choose which version of the smartphone to buy, so it was comfortable to use it. Do not forget that the update of the software version will be available for your smartphone, and for this you need to download it first, and if the space is not enough, it will not be able to update. Therefore, we advise you before buying to think about how much internal memory you need.
