All because he became the most affordable in the line."M". According to the manufacturer, the novelty became the successor of the previously known model M3. We have heard little about her, because she has not gone beyond China.
At the same time, the Meizu M5 Note model with improved features and increased price tag, which replaced the most popular smartphone of last year, Meizu M3 Note, is becoming popular.
In general, as we see, the family with the “M” index has really become popular and significant.
As you have already noticed, the model with the number "4"did not have. This is due to the fact that the Chinese are wary of her. But despite the superstition, the MX4 and MX4 Pro smartphones were still presented to the audience.
The surprise in the novelty was caused by the fact that, despiteThe latest trend of metal cases for the budget segment, the novelty "pereobulsya" in plastic. Good or bad, users decide, and we go further.
Packaging
Regarding the packaging of a mobile phone Meizu M5 32Gb, the reviews about it leave good. The company continues to delight fans of its minimalism. The box does not load extra information.
The smartphone was placed in a compact white packaging. It is made of thick textured cardboard. Everything looks expensive and of high quality. Inside everything is packed tightly, which ensures safe transportation.
Opening the lid, you can see the phone on top.Under it is a tray with all that is needed. The Chinese are not very generous. In a special envelope placed the documentation. There is also a clip for extracting a tray with SIM cards. She reminds us that the system works with Flyme's proprietary shell.
In addition, the box was network adapter2 amps and USB cable. Despite the fact that there is no quick charge function, and the Type-C universal connector was not added, the device still charges quickly.
Appearance
Find out what Meizu is in the hand of a passerby, alreadynot difficult. The familiar rounded case shape, glass 2.5D, on the rear panel is a large “eye” of the lens, borrowed from the front is a mechanical oval fingerprint scanner button.
As already mentioned, the feature of this modelbecame a plastic case. On the one hand, it is not the first time used in the devices of this company, on the other - the latest released models have “dressed” in metal.
Но сказать, что пластик – это недостаток, нельзя.To each his own. In addition, in order to appease the customer, several cool color solutions for the Meizu M5 32Gb were released. There are a lot of reviews on this account. Buyers liked the matte black and blue. Glossy white and turquoise were not ignored. But gold was less popular than the other options.
The phone has standard dimensions for similar ones.models. It reaches a height of 14 cm in width - 7 cm, and its thickness - 8 mm. Due to the fact that the body is plastic, it turned out to be lighter than its predecessors - only 138 grams.
Detailed description
The main area of the front panel takes the screen.There is a rather noticeable frame around it, which for some aesthetes can become a negative trait. Above the display is a speaker. On the left side of it is the front camera. Do not forget about the notification indicator and sensors.
According to most device owners,Speaker speaker turned out very good. It makes a clear sound, there is a volume margin. You can even hear the low and high notes. It seems that he got here from an expensive device.
Under the screen, the usual mechanical button. It remains the same oval shape. In this model, it can perform the function of a fingerprint scanner. There is even a heart rate sensor.
The reverse side is concise. From above in the middle, as usual, there is a large "eye" of the camera. Below it is a two-color flash. The manufacturer did not forget to leave your logo.
Elements
Element base successfully placed for the formerThe owners remain familiar. Apparently, so many good reviews. Meizu M5 32Gb White remained faithful to the details. Therefore, on the bottom there is still a place to connect a headset, microphone, USB port for the charger. From the very edge there is a grille with speakers.
The upper end is free. Although the older models on it you can find an additional noise reduction microphone.
On the left side the combo tray is barely noticeable.He can traditionally work with two nano-SIM, or you can replace the SIM card with a memory card. In general, initially this design of the tray caused discontent among smartphone owners. Now they are used to it, even managed to shove it all at once.
The right side is occupied by the volume and power button. Both are made of plastic. They have a soft move. Using them is inconvenient, well, or only if you use a case without cuts.
Screen
The new model comes with a diagonal of 5.2 ".Smartphone Meizu M5 32 GB (blue) has become universal due to its size. Previous models were offered with a diagonal of 5.5 inches. It is already considered borderline. Someone such a display will seem great. Version Pro 5 generally appeared with a screen of 5.7 inches.
But the five-inch M3S mini, on the contrary, seems uncomfortable to some because of the small screen. In general, the size of the display is always a dispute between adherents of compact models and “shovels”.
The resolution of this model is 720x1280 pixels.This is a budget choice that could be increased to Full HD, but then it would have had to increase its price tag. Therefore, this resolution is understandable. Inside the matrix is set IPS.
In general, the screen is not the best.It has a not too high brightness indicator, disgusting viewing angles. Normal color screen displays only in the normal position. If it is tilted forward or backward, it noticeably loses brightness and distorts shades.
Photo / video
With the camera, the Meizu M5 is simple. The main module works with a resolution of 13 megapixels. It has phase focusing and aperture at f2.2. Front camera gives 5 MP.
This is a budget version of the camera.You should not expect anything special from it. Happy good bright pictures. Photos are saturated, clear. But in the twilight image is not happy. There are noises, because there is not enough lighting, the image becomes dim and "soapy".
Видео снимается в разрешении FullHD.During the day, the results are at 30 frames per second, at night the processing speed drops to 20 frames per second. Focus slows down a bit. But the sound is recorded good: no squeaks and noises.
The front camera can also record video in FullHD. Better not to experiment at night. But during the day, get good videos. You can use it as a webcam.
"Filling"
Reviews about the Meizu M5 32Gb mobile phonemostly positive. This is due to the fact that despite its budget, the manufacturer decided to equip the model with a good “iron”. Inside, the MediaTek MT6750 processor runs on eight cores. It contains two clusters of four "crystals". The first half works at a speed of 1 GHz, the second - 1.5 GHz.
By tradition, the graphics work Mali-T860.It supports all modern features. To say that it will pull the latest mobile news on the "ultra", it is impossible. But still it will give you the opportunity to enjoy everything that you find on the Play Store.
"Iron" calmly copes with everyday tasks. The case is not heated very much. There may be overheating during charging, but they are not critical.
Models are available in several versions. A version with 2 or 3 GB of RAM is available. Internal can be a choice: 16 or 32 GB.
Аккумулятор получил объем 3070 мАч.For a smartphone, such a diagonal will be enough. Moderate use will prolong the work of the device for 14 hours. If you play continuously, then without recharging it will live for about 4 hours. Watching videos will be delayed for 7 hours, and listening to music can last up to 50 hours.
Software component
This model was released on the basis of Android 6.0, covered with a proprietary "shell" Flyme 5.2. By the autumn of 2017, many models have already been updated to the sixth version of the software.
Users liked what the manufacturertook care of the system "clean" apparatus. It does not have a huge number of pre-installed programs that no one will ever use. Everything you need for everyday use.
From the corporate it is worth noting the music player with a concise design and a simple equalizer. There is a set of tools like: calculator, magnifier, mirror, compass, etc.
"Neighbors"
Together with this model, a couple more entered the marketinteresting options from the manufacturer. One of them was a mobile phone Meizu M5 Note 32Gb. He received good reviews. It turned out to be a logical continuation of the Meizu M3 Note.
Of course, to say that the owners of the latter rushed to buy a novelty, it is impossible. He still became good for those who only decided to buy a Chinese smartphone.
Nevertheless, he got a better design,Got more metal elements. More precisely, I lost almost all plastic parts. Improved camera, screen, battery capacity. All of these minor changes have impacted the cost.
As a result, reviews of the Meizu M5 Note 32Gb Gray remainedonly positive. This is a universal option for everyday use. It works with absolutely all applications, perfectly "pulls" the game and shows good performance. Its cost, depending on the modification, is quite acceptable: from 10 thousand rubles.
Meizu MX5 also found a buyer.He was a couple of thousand rubles more expensive than the previous model. But the cost is not just increased. Firstly, the front panel was covered with a protective glass Gorilla Glass 3. Secondly, the Samsung Super AMOLED screen provides an extremely rich and vivid picture.
Influenced prices Meizu MX5 32 GB improved20.7 megapixel camera with a huge number of "buns". We can say that the manufacturer tried to make a “camera phone” of this model. How else to explain the presence of the sensor from Sony, accurate automatic focus and video recording at a resolution of 4 K.
And finally, a good was the “stuffing» Meizu MX5. The Helio X10 Turbo processor provides 2.2 GHz. Graphics deals with PowerVR G6200. Version comes with RAM for 3 GB.
Reviews
These are so bright and different models fromMeizu. Of course, not all models were understood by fans. The exit of some caused many questions. But in general, the company is trying to produce consistent smartphones, with minor, but important changes.
Understand the advantages and disadvantages of the modelMeizu M5, you can only reviews. But the overall impression is good. The owners noted the main advantage: value for money. Liked a lot and design.
Some appreciated the quality of the camera, the autonomy of the device, the size of the display. Especially pleased with the "pure" Android.
Among the shortcomings, they singled out the same autonomy.What is the reason that some assemblies can work all day in normal mode without recharging, while others are discharged halfway to work is unclear. Perhaps a problem with battery calibration. Many users forget that the first few charges must be carried out according to the instructions.
Internet connection became another of the main problems - after disabling Wi-Fi, it was necessary to turn on mobile Internet several times. Although this disadvantage is observed in many devices.
Otherwise, this is a great option for those who are looking for a compact device with a "stuffing" for everyday use with breaks in the game.
