At last! After so many rumors, leaks, and other data that the Meizu E3 has been giving since its inception, as of today it is official. This phone was recently unveiled at an event in Shanghai, China, made by the company in which we were given details about the technical specifications and characteristics of the same.
The Meizu E3 comes with features that are aimed at a sector of medium demands in which a 6-inch screen, a powerful eight-core SoC, and a generous RAM memory are the components that are most expected. Do you want to know more about this device? Well, keep reading!
The Meizu E3 comes equipped with a huge 5.99-inch IPS LCD In-Cell screen adjusted to a FullHD + resolution of 2.160 x 1.080 pixels of 403ppi under an 18: 9 format for which we thank the brand so much.
Under the hood, we stumbled upon the recent chip unveiled in October last year by Qualcomm ... We are talking about the Snapdragon 636, a Kryo 260 eight-core SoC at 1.8GHz and 14nm of architecture together with an Adreno 509 GPU. In addition, to accompany this processor, Meizu has opted for a 6GB RAM memory in this device, an internal storage space of 64GB for its smaller variant, and 128GB for the other -in both phones it is possible to expand it by means of a microSD card- .
In the photographic section, the E3 comes equipped with a double vertical rear camera protected by sapphire crystals in which we find a main Sony IMX362 sensor of 12MP f / 1.9 with focal aperture and Dual Pixel technology, and a secondary sensor Sony IMX350 of 20MP of f / 2.6 with PDAF. At the front, we are facing an 8 megapixel lens with f / 2.0 aperture capable of recognizing and optimizing / improving our skin tone thanks to the ArcSoft algorithm, in addition, it will help us to unlock the device quickly and safely thanks to the system facial recognition that the Meizu E3 carries.
Notably the dual camera of this mobile is accompanied by a dual tone LED Flash, and has 1.8x optical zoom and zoom without quality loss of up to 2.5x.
Regarding other features, The operating system for which Meizu has chosen for this phone is Android 7.1.2 Nougat version under the Flyme 7 OS customization layer that adds some designs and gestures developed by the company itself. We think that the Asian firm could lean towards Android Oreo, although hopefully a software update to this terminal will be announced soon as it is worth it.
Regarding the battery of this terminal, the Meizu E3 mounts a 3.360mAh battery with 20W mCharge fast charging technology that, without a doubt, will get us going in the shortest possible time to give us a hard day. In addition, together with other benefits, It also has a fingerprint reader located on the right side as the Sony used to, it has a USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm Jack port.
