Meizu Pro 5 With 5.7-Inch Display, USB Type-C Support Launched

 

Meizu has launched its new flagship smartphone, the Pro 5, at an event on Wednesday in Beijing, China. The smartphone is part of the new Pro series of handsets, which come with Pro service and accessories.
The Meizu Pro 5 will be available in two variants - 3GB of LPDDR4 RAM with 32GB storage priced at CNY 2,799 (approximately Rs. 29,000) and 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM with 64GB of storage priced at CNY 3,099 (approximately Rs. 32,100). The smartphone will go up for reservation starting Wednesday and will go on sale on October 12 in China. It will be available in Grey, Silver, Silver Black, and Golden colours.
Meizu said it is trying to bring the Pro 5 to India as early as the end of this year, but added certification and other issues may delay it till early next year.
The company has promised that the Meizu Pro 5 will be getting "VIP services" including M Support - a remote support system, which will mean that Meizu experts can go through the phone like TeamViewer. Meizu said users can be assured of privacy during this process, with AES and SSL encryption, and can end the session at any time.
The company said it will start testing its M Support service in October, and the service can be expected to launch in November. On-site service will be offered (in 20 cities) for those problems that cannot be resolved remotely.
