This weeks big new is the Meizu MX4 Pro launch on the 19th (and whatever Nubia are planning), plus we can look forward to the release of the 32GB MX4.
So far on the 16GB version of the Meizu MX4 has been available to buy, a great phone but the extra storage space sure would be nice! Well the 32GB of the MX4 will be release in China for 1999 Yuan, and possibly in Taiwan too.
The MX4 was the first smartphone to be released with an octacore MT6595 Mediatek processor which boasts LTE built in. It’s probably the also the first Meditek powered phone that can actually really stand up to the hordes of Snapdragon 800/801 powered phones on sale too.
Gizchina News of the week
Both Flyme and YunOS powered versions of the phone will be up for grabs with pricing set at 1999 Yuan. In addition to the 32GB phone the white and gold versions of the MX4 went on sale today and I actually saw the white phone in store in Beijing.

Well, but when do we see it with 64GB or 128GB inside, too? 😉
Not for a long time. Too busy filling orders for the base versions. Anything above 32G is going to take the price over 2000 in China, a psychological barrier Meizu probably doesn’t want to cross until sales have plateaued. Meizu also has a historically spotty record on higher capacity devices: announced, yes; brought to market; not so much.
Already avaliable in Israel from bug.co.il
I sold few of them, now both 16,32 out of stock for 20-30 days.
I live in Russia at the moment and their official retail sellers are still doing the pre-orders of 16-32 GB MX4 because of the lack of the products sent from China. They got 2 packs of phones , both for covering their pre-orders and when this is done (delivering the pre-orders to customers at the moment) they will put on retail sale the phones that are left from the first 2 packs and , as they said, they already wait the 3rd pack of phones to come at the end of November. I really wish they finish fast… I’m waiting for a month now to buy a 32 GB one from them (I missed the pre-order period damn it)… not their fault ofc but still it’s long to wait.
You forgot to mention that Meizu MX3 has reduced it’s price temporarely,only 1299 yuan
where ? can you post a link ?
thanks.
Meizu in my opinion makes much better phones than Xiaomi, the white MX4 makes the Mi4 look like a cheap Chinese shanzhai phone. Unfortunately Xiaomi gained a lot of hipsters with their race-to-the-bottom pricing strategy.
Yesterday they put on official retail seller’s site here in Russia the leftovers from the pre-orders… only white versions of MX4 in 16 and 32 GB… Not to mention that the 32 GB version leftovers vanished in matter of an hour and today there is not 16 GB available either.
Since I like the black one more I decided to wait till the end of the month that they will have a new order delivered with both black and white.
People do complain for some minor bugs or problems with their phones in the official social media of the russian company.
Some also say that the phone does get a bit too much heat but they also don’t forget to mention that the heat really cools off fast after the use, probably from the nice aircraft alloy build this phone has.
I hope I won’t have any problems with mine once I get it 🙂
