Surprisingly, What reviewers always fail to mention on the review of the PRO 5 is that it's got a dedicated High End DAC chip which has a rather impressive drive quality, the transient performance is excellent and the sound is powerful and accurate.

Actually Meizu came out with this specific, rounded, design before the iPhone 6 line. Fact.

When can we see video quality test in AA

This phone's awesome...I think you guys underestimated the camera performance, as GSMArena did the same test weeks ago and they said it was great. Samsung S6 Internals + iPhone Aesthetics and Audio = *Meizu Pro 5*

i have this phone for three weeks now(imported from china) and it is the most fluid device i have ever used.The Flyme launcher can resembles iOS which is not bad thing because it is super easy to navigate.LTE is working perfectly here in the UK so no worries about that. The CPU and GPU power is insane, ive tried asphaly 8 and implosion and they are running beautifully!

Wow this is nearly $200 cheaper than the Nexus 6p with the 64gb memory in the UK! It has SD card, Sony camera, extra RAM, better CPU, front fingerprint reader, great battery life, the skin is light and useful, smart touch, etc and it looks like an iPhone, great stuff. This looks great value for money and if China keeps churning these types of phones out (Oppo as well) I can see why Samsung's sales will keep falling. Can HTC, BB, Sony survive these well made mid range premium phones?

0:16 that iron man figurine!!!(not the pop vinyl one, the one near the infinity gauntlet)...were u get it frm???

[jakelo]

I really don't like having only one button for the back and home. Would it have been all that hard to add capacity touch buttons on the side of the fingerprint scanner.

[mohammadadawi]

"why didn't u talk about "the thing
i mean the antutu benchmarks of this phone
we have seen images of such tests and the results are amazing
i'm talking 75000

[COMPAQ]

Why do you keep slowing down the last word in every sentence...

[MrClassified]

Does the Meizu Pro 5 (and now recently announced Pro 6) come with Google Play Store and Google Services from initial setup? Are all Chinese version phones not coming with Google Services due to country restrictions??

[dtadeo]

Exynos 7420 is currently the SoC king, and in this device, pushing just 1080p WOW!

[vistadriv]

I wonder if it makes a difference installing google now or nova launcher

[lucvandriel]

I have this phone for a week now. things to mention are that th bottom an top parts are made of plastic but I dont really kind that. and the most important thing is that I usually get 1.5 days of standby time and 6 hours of screen on time and have 20% battery left. some apps are Chinese but you can just put them in a folder and replace them with google apps.

I paid 380 euros for the 32 GB black/silver version and it was definetly worth it.

[DaftBunny]

Too bad you tested it with Flyme 4.5, whilst 5.0 is already out. Might change the camera experience quite a bit.

[grgeorgiadis]

as it has amoled screen, the black level is good? and for mx4 pro to have with 2k resolution if i buy this phone you think ful hd it seems to me worst?

[brutal]

does it support OTG?
how to enable it?
